Podcast appearances and mentions of Sara Campbell

Sara Campbell closes out our first official training ango with a flash fiction final - a brief loving study of our favorite Buddha and Bodhisattva archetypes.

Sara hits a roadblock in love and zazen and takes the opportunity to teach us how to turn the worms that turn us sideways into features not bugs. How can insecurity be a source of confidence? What do we do when the “you” who is actually the ultimate “it” is also what's getting in the way of us getting it? Can the teachers who shut us down be the perfect tool for opening ourselves up? And can Mark Zuckerberg handle the depths of our Metta?? Find out here!

In part 2 of our “2 Truths” series, Sara puts both of those truths into practice to find out if there's a middle way between selfishness and martyrdom. How do we work on behalf of all living beings without burning ourselves out? Can we really write off our private little luxuries as somehow good for everyone? Who ultimately deserves the best cut of fish, the babies in the nest or the mom up there keeping them alive?? Find out here!

Sara takes a trip down the memory lane of dating and old anxieties around marriage to explore the 12 fold chain of dependent origination - the cycle that creates and perpetuates all our suffering (nbd). How often are we chasing after happiness based on societal expectations rather than personal truth? Why is breaking free from our desires so challenging, even when we're aware of them? And why is LA so disaster prone even (and especially) when it comes to dating?? Find out here!

Why aren't your social media posts getting the engagement you hoped for? In this episode, Sara Campbell uncover the top three mistakes music schools often make on platforms like Facebook and Instagram—and, more importantly, how to fix them. From the pitfalls of overly promotional content to the missed opportunities of “set it and forget it” posting, we'll walk you through actionable strategies to level up your social media game. Plus, discover why asking for reviews is a must and how to make storytelling the secret ingredient in your marketing. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start seeing results from your social media efforts, this episode is for you! davesimonsmusic.com   

“You are the universe experiencing itself. And you have to respect that… The way that I am is exactly the way I should be. It's not just about stripping you of the stuff that's getting in your way, but also building you up.” - Sara Campbell   Sara raises some deep questions about femininity and masculinity in Zen while looking back on her own life of practice. Were our teachings and techniques really built for all who might attend? Is there a practice that can build us up as much as it breaks us down? Does a meditation of dropping off risk some voices disappearing entirely?? Find out here!

“We're not here to be martyrs, we're not here to take care of others at our own expense. The more I respect myself, the more I  can support and give to others.” - Sara Campbell   Sara tries to find out what it takes to find contentment in any weather. Do we owe it to the world to be pleasant people, and if not can our bs be at least entertaining? Are we obligated to not inflict our negativity on others? Which coast has the better weather for aimless wandering? Is it the heat or is it the humidity?? Find out here!

“I've seen too much, man. I know what's out there. And it's not all bad. And it's also not all good.” - Sara Campbell   Sara revels in the nightmare of a beautiful spring evening, the fragility of the daffodils, the darkness of the rain, and the five powers that can turn that nightmare into a perfectly present dream. How do we remember to notice the cool breeze of a deep blue twilight when all we feel is dark? Can we include fear and pessimism in our all inclusiveness, or are they the absence of all inclusiveness? And will anyone remember to bring light and laughter to the bodhisattva of light and laughter? Find out here!

“The biggest change for me is to stop feeling like I should have it all figured out. And stop believing that anyone else does; and finding it a deep red flag if they claim to.” - Sara Campbell   Sara marks her five year anniversary with ACZC by taking stock and admitting how maybe all this goalless practice has changed her for the better, while the sangha takes the opportunity to get personal and share what's working, what's not, and how those kind of assessments may or may not be working out for them. Will we ever be able to untangle the big ball of yarn that is ourselves? Will the sangha exhaust the limits of that metaphor? (absolutely... knot!) Find out here!

Join me, Dr. Mike T Nelson, on the Flex Diet Podcast, where we explore the intricate connections between gut health and exercise performance. In this conversation with Dr. Sarah Campbell, we expand upon the influence of antibiotics on aerobic performance, delving into how hydration and different types of water can impact your gut microbiota. We also discuss the often-overlooked oral microbiome, examining its interactions with pre-workout supplements and mouthwashes, and consider environmental factors such as fluoride on our internal ecosystems. Tune in for a blend of personal insights and scientific discussions as I share updates from my time in El Cuyo, Mexico, and Dr. Campbell teases her upcoming adventures in Peru.For Dr Campbell's top 4 takeaways, go to https://miketnelson.com/flex4.

“It's less, yes it must be this way, and more, let's go this way together.” - Sara Campbell   Sara reflects on the holidays and turns the page on a new year with a simple but endless question, how do we live when we know we're going to die? Also, what to do when you suddenly realize you've gone from wacky aunt to wacky family matriarch without even having applied for the promotion. Are hidden dark forces out there controlling the world, and if so, what are they to us? Is Buddhism a nihilistic philosophy? Is Sara a closet nihilist?? Find out here!

"The more you start to learn about what you are, which is absolutely completely interdependent and just a fractal of what everyone else is,  the more it starts to break down. I can't hate myself. It just doesn't make sense.” - Sara Campbell   Following up on our retreat theme of compassion and the five skandas, Sara gives us a raw and revealing look at self compassion. Plus, she gives us the naked truth of what it was like to be Zen Center caretaker over the summer. What techniques and theories does Zen offer for cultivating self compassion and is there more to zen than zazen? Where does love and appreciation go when it can't find its way back home? And how do we find time for self care when the problem is we're stretched too thin in the first place?? Find out here!

“If Zen's teaching me that I have inherent value just for existing, part of that whole deal is that I'm going to be doing mantras or some other wacky sh*t that I come across in six months. And I'm okay with that.” - Sara Campbell   After finding benefits in affirmative mantra practices, Sara looks back on Zen emptiness teachings to find out if there really is a contradiction between self empowerment and the enlightenment of letting go of that self entirely. What's the difference between dropping off the self and willfully keeping it down? Is aimlessness an aspiration? Are you a bad MF and does god love you?? Find out here!

“Really question what you perceive or know and don't draw many conclusions from it. Also don't think you know nothing. You do know something, and if you abandon what you know to be true you've missed it altogether.” - Sara Campbell   Sara sends us a dispatch from her post Zen Center exploits and dabbles in some serious storytelling with The Original Adventures of Herman the Worm Boy (as delightful as they sound) and the never ending quest for the One Mind with our old friend Huangbo. How do we take our practice out of the Zen Center and into to the real world? And what is this “real” world anyway? Is there such a thing as honest storytelling? And how DO we explain our Zen hobby to our friends and family if they ask?? Find out here!

HI FRIENDS!

“I've definitely angrily swept the floor, definitely not been stoked. But I think the constraints are good for you, like in the way that creative constraints can be really helpful. On some level its a privilege and an honor to have a community relying on you. And on some level its like goddamn it, they've got me.” - Sara Campbell   Sara bids farewell to her tenure as an ACZC resident and seasonal caretaker some reflections on her years as a live-in zennie and a reading from Norman Fischer on the stages of monastic life. Was it all worth it? Is residential practice the one way ticket to enlightenment? Or a convenient way to burst your bubble on all such notions? Can we have spring flowers without the cold dead winter? Find out here.

“I feel very confident… confident that I don't know what the f*** I'm doing.” - Sara Campbell   Sara takes us on a personal tour of ambition and emptiness, with a first hand account of how teachings on groundlessness do and do not prepare us for a world of gig economies, uncertain employments, and potentially dubious digital windfalls. What good is being grounded? What does it mean to be present for reality in an increasingly virtual world? And when we find ourselves in free fall, is it possible to land in the sky? Find out here!

“If you don't understand the way right before you, how will you know the path as you walk?” - Shitou Xiqian   Sara reflects on some challenging lines from Shitou to work through medical troubles in her family, while Shunryu Suzuki and Huangbo shed some light on the dawns and midnights of life that always seem to go hand in hand. How does practice help in the times we're most reticent to sit down to it? Does insight best arrive in a flash or a slow dawning drip of emotion? Can 1000 year old poetry offer any cool comforts in times of crisis? Find out here.

The roles of nutrition, hormones, and muscle physiology have been well established when it comes to improving athletic performance. But what if optimizing the gut microbiome is a crucial missing piece? This is exactly where Dr. Sara Campbell and her team at Rutgers University focus their research.

“If you want to get it, you have to become it. But you already are it, so why worry about it?” - Yunju Daoying   On the first of our talks recorded live from the Fall Retreat, Sara takes us on a personal walking tour of personal ambition. How do we balance the desire to make something of ourselves while still staying true to the spirit of Zen? Along the way we get some Alan Watts hot takes, and a deep dive into Dogen's “It” (Inmo). What is it? How do we fit into it? And how exactly do we get up off the ground by using the sky, Dogen?? Find out here!!

When we think of the messages we send out in the world, we always think about the words. But how often do we think of photography? Not enough. Your message is more than what you say with vowels and consonants. It's also about the story you tell, the emotions you show, and the authenticity you create with photography. In this episode of Messaging on a Mission we speak with renown photographer Joel Benjamin on how to think about photography when telling your story.   Episode Guest(s): Joel Benjamin is a commercial and editorial photographer, known for his bright, authentic and energetic images and ideas.   A former advertising creative director, Joel has been shooting for over 25 years and has a busy studio in the Fort Point section of Boston.  Joel draws on his sense of style, color and honesty to compose striking images that capture the essence of the people and things he is shooting. Known for his ability to make everyone he works with comfortable, Joel works in a relaxed and collaborative way, ensuring images that tell a story and capture a moment.   His clients run the range from Drizly to Sara Campbell fashion from Biogen to Brown University.   Key Takeaways:   Compile a library of ideas to help inform current and future campaigns and keep everyone visually on the same page.   Always start with a shot list. If you budget eight minutes per shot, that can give you a sense of how long the day will run as well as help you prioritize.   At events, get all your photos done in the first few hours. No need to pay a photographer for the last hour, because one wants to see what happens toward the end!   If you use employees in your photoshoots, you must have them sign release forms, because employees move on and they don't always leave their goodwill behind.    If you have to use stock, seek out smaller stock agencies or really find a style of photography that you like and really pursue that, such as natural daylight.   When selecting from a group of similar shots, first weed out the ones that are not usable, then look for something special in the ones that are. Remember that there is rarely just one shot that will work better than all the others. Don't worry about finding the perfect one every time.   During headshots, involve the subjects with the photographer's work so they feel part of the process and are more at ease with the photographer's work.   When looking for a photographer (if it's not our guest Joel!), ask other people recommendations, look at websites and Instagram accounts.  It's always good to have a meeting or phone call with the photographer to make sure you're all on the same page.   During a photoshoot, be open to where the day takes you.  Maybe there's going to be things more brilliant you haven't thought of, and that's really always a joy for everybody when you end up with something way more than you anticipated.   Useful Links: Joel Benjamin https://joelbenjamin.com https://www.instagram.com/joelbphoto/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/joel-benjamin-4734614/

“You don't seek the way, the way seeks you!” - Kodo Sawaki   Sara shares with us the enlightening existential crisis of her wayward mind which, according to our forbears, is the essential mind of practice. How did we get here and why do we keep coming back? Why does this path turn out to be for some but not for others?? What's the difference between going through the motions, and the embodiment of no mind?? Find out here!!

During the COVID-19 pandemic, prejudice, xenophobia and racism toward Asian American and Pacific Islander communities has surged. In this conversation, meet Dr. Xiao Chi Zhang, an emergency medicine physician and Chinese American, who shares the hateful words that people have yelled out to him on the street, and what happened when one day words escalated to physical assault. He talks about the confusion of being targeted because of what he looks like and shares how his scrubs sometimes felt like a shield that could protect him from this violence. [Editor's Note: To read Dr. Zhang's essay “Wearing Scrubs Like a Shield,” click here. Don't miss the audio player at the top of the essay if you'd like to hear Dr. Zhang read it in his own voice.] Sara Campbell also joins the conversation. She is the Associate Vice President of the Presidential & Leadership Advisory Councils at Jefferson's Office of Institutional Advancement and shares her unique experience as a Korean American woman who was adopted by a white family with her two brothers when she was eight years old. Campbell explains in what ways she gave up her Korean identity to better fit into a predominately white community and how she's still finding and reconnecting with her ethnic roots today. To better understand the trauma of racism, especially during the stress of the pandemic, Dr. Deanna Nobleza, a psychiatrist at Jefferson, joins the episode. She validates the unique experiences of the AAPI community—she herself is Filipino American—and stresses the importance of finding safe sources of support and practicing self-care, now more than ever.

“The most important thing you can be doing is just to be doing it, and that's doing it right. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to be there.” - Sara Campbell Sara shares her experiences with Master Clown (yes, that's a thing!) Moshe Cohen's “Levity of Pause” workshop, all about the intersection of Zen and clown. Join us as she helps us bring a little humor to our stodgy old zazen and, if we're lucky, maybe poke a few holes in the ridiculousness of the absurd certainties we call life.

"I love the idea of worlds creating and worlds destroying. Each moment being new makes the good times sweeter. And being aware of how much you love something when it's happening makes harder times bearable. It's that awareness that everything is being made up and torn down constantly." - Sara Campbell   Live from Mt Baldy, Sara brings us a personal exploration of this year's retreat theme, "World's Created, World's Destroyed," including everyone's favorite koan on the end of the world and what to do about it, plus a lovely reading from Charlotte Joko Beck on the great coal furnace of zazen.

“It's been hard to accept that my life didn't go exactly how I thought it should. That is a humbling thing to experience. And to know that your time is finite… I still grieve some of the things that I don't have, but I'm way more able to see beyond them as a result of this practice. And I can be grateful for it. And I can see that my weirdo life has value. But I'm not really the judge of that. That's not up to me. That's bigger than me.” - Sara Campbell Sara takes us on an intimate personal journey through Genjo Koan, Dogen's classic poetic piece about a small nonexistent self trying to make its way in a wide world that turns out to be bigger than it could hope to understand. Who are we if we don't make the conventional life milestones we'd sought to define ourselves by? And how do we let go enough to dive fully into a life that might not be going the way we'd planned?

Climate activists fighting against the development of an airport in Tarras pretended to die in front of Christchurch city councillors at a meeting on Thursday.Christchurch International Airport Ltd (CIAL) announced the purchase of 750 hectares for the project in July.CIAL is 75 per cent owned by the council through its holding company, Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL).The protesters attended the city council's finance and performance committee meeting dressed in black and carrying grave markers.Speaking for Extinction Rebellion Ōtautahi, David Goldsmith said it was hard to believe a new airport was being mooted in the middle of a climate emergency."No amount of sustainability greenwashing can hide the fact that increased flight capacity will mean increased emissions. Our elected representatives owe ratepayers an explanation for how this project can possibly be consistent with the council's declaration of a climate emergency."Sara Campbell, also with Extinction Rebellion Ōtautahi, said the proposed airport development raises issues of equity and climate justice."Worldwide, 1 per cent of the population is responsible for 50 per cent of aviation emissions."The controversial development has ruffled feathers with some locals in Tarras and with Queenstown mayor Jim Boult.

This episode’s guest will take us to the depths of her soul and her fond memories of deep diving. Sara Campbell is like the ‘grandmother’ of free deep-diving by holding three world records on free deep diving for several years. Like the program she founded and manage, Discover Your Depths, this conversation is out to bring us to discover Sara’s and our notion of the depths that lie within everyone.   Sara’s discovery of her passion for deep-diving was almost accidental. Her success story in the sport was pretty unusual as she came to it on a different path. She was teaching yoga and meditation when one of her students asked her to take lessons with her. And as the first rule of freediving is to never dive alone, she went in and let fate have it. For all she knew, she was just playing and having fun!   But throughout her journey exploring the depths of the ocean, Sara has also deepened her understanding of the foundational principles she’s been teaching in her yoga and meditation classes. And most of all, she understood that integrating her spiritual teachings with her new-found passion is what propelled her to success. And these pieces of gems are what she’s sharing with Alexandra and their listeners in this podcast.   Free deep-diving can be for competition but also recreation as relaxation is the foundation, key-stone aspect of freediving. To dive deep without suffering an injury, you have to receive this incredible embrace from the ocean; the embrace of the divine that's down there. This is where the surrender comes in—you cannot be the one controlling the dive. One has to let go and give in to the wisdom of the body. Going further into the deeper depths is a process of trusting that the wisdom and intimacy are already there and of surrendering the ego.   To Sara, the struggle is much more an internal one—when we get an uncompromising confrontation with ourselves and with everything not in alignment with our spirit. Everything that the ego is bringing up to get involved in the process happens when people are stuck in the numbers. There's this pull to be something more than we already are. If we're ready to go there, the body will go there. It is not about us creating or forcing or doing anything; it's allowing.   Sara and Alex also went on to explore the dynamics between the ego and the spirit. If the desire comes from the spirit, we are guided towards something which is in our path and for our expansion. But often, we get attached to desires through our ego. And this is something Sara learned unwittingly in her journey. The relationship of the body with the ocean gives her so much honest feedback—a great level of awareness and honesty people cannot get from anywhere else.

Our bodies and the ocean know each other intimately because that's our original home. Going further into the deeper depths is a process of trusting that the wisdom and intimacy are already there and surrendering the ego. - Sara Campbell It's initially very counter-intuitive. It can be for competition but also for relaxation. Because people hold their breath and take them further and further away from the most vital source of life, which is the breath, the air. In order to dive deep, one has to completely relax and that requires trust and surrender. - Sara Campbell My motivation was happiness. And so when I was going in the ocean with that as my intention, I was always in a space of openness, not in a space of contraction. - Sara Campbell If the desire comes from the spirit, we are guided towards something which is in our path and for our expansion. But often, we get attached to desires through ego. - Sara Campbell In having so many labels for ourselves, we become so much less than more. - Alexandra Kreis Guest Bio Sara Campbell is a Kundalini Yoga teacher since 2003, and four times World Record-holding freediver. She is the founder of Discover Your Depths, a unique teaching and personal growth philosophy based on yoga, meditation, freediving, and body-mind-spirit awareness. She was the second woman ever to have dived, self-propelled, below 100m on one breath. She originated from the UK but is now living in her chosen hometown in Egypt where she teaches classes, workshops, and retreats.

Tiny Revolutions newsletter author Sara Campbell talks about meditation and the importance of in-person interactions.

In a glowing reminder of what exactly we're doing here and why we do it, Sara generously shares her personal practice story of turning her back on church and finding the sacred that lies just beyond the strange. She tells us about losing trust in yourself only to realize yourself as part of something much, much bigger. And, in a tradition admittedly short on coddling, she reminds us about the community of freak and geeks that kept her coming back and the warm fuzzies that have a way of sneaking in through the cracks when you're not even looking.

Hi, this is Christopher Sutton from Musical U, and this will be a special short announcement episode to invite you to Stay In - and Play On.   If you're watching this episode when it airs then you'll be well aware of the current situation with the worldwide pandemic of COVID-19.   Now I'm not here to offer health advice or news updates - no doubt you've got enough of that flying at you already. But it seems clear that the sooner people self-isolate, the more lives can be saved.    I’m here in Spain on total lockdown with my wife and two young daughters - and although it’s all a bit crazy, we are all in good health so far.   And if you're like most in our community at Musical U then faced with that prospect of staying in for several weeks ahead, you're quickly turning to music as a rock you can rely on. I’m glad that my home office is always packed with instruments so I can keep playing. I did have a momentary panic when a guitar string broke - but it’s okay, it turned out I had a spare set.   Now I don't want to trivialise this and say "hey, never mind, let's all just have fun and play music!" - this is a serious situation.   But at the same time, music can be an incredible force for keeping our spirits high, helping us stay connected with one another, inspiring us to hope and be thankful. And with the opportunity to spend more time on our music learning it even offers a possible silver lining, that we can come out of this situation with new and better skills, feeling more musical, eager to go out there and enjoy performing and collaborating at a new level once life returns to normal.   So I wanted to record this special episode to share some cool things that are happening right now which can help you make the most of any extra music time you may find you have.   First off, you can expect Musicality Now to continue as normal. We took a short break - and I'll share in a minute what we were busy with elsewhere - but we're back on track for an episode per week, possibly more, so that you can always count on that new episode to listen to or watch.   Beyond this show though there's actually a lot of other stuff available for you that I didn't want you to miss out on.   Here at Musical U over the last week, as it's become increasingly clear how many people likely face lockdown for weeks or even months, and that the sooner people start self-isolating the better - we've been talking with members and brainstorming in the team, trying to figure out how we can best serve you all in the weeks ahead.   Last week we announced a few quick measures for members, which I'll just mention because I know we have a lot of members who listen to the show and you may have missed that announcement. We will be keeping our doors open at Musical U and doing everything we can to make sure you can rely on us for "service as normal" throughout this period. And we're also doing a few extra things based on what we've been hearing from you.   Firstly we know a lot of folks are facing financial difficulties with their work interrupted so we're offering an amnesty on membership payments for anybody who needs it. We don't want your membership payment to be a source of stress and we'd hate to lose you from the community.   Secondly, we were hearing that many of you anticipated more time available for music practice, but your regular activities like local group rehearsals or performances were all cancelled so you needed something new to sink your teeth into. So for a limited time we've dropped the prices of all five of our standalone courses in half for you - that's Foundations of a Musical Mind, The Musician's Ear, Ear Training For Beginners, The Circle Mastery Experience and even our latest course, Improv Immersion.    We're also shaping up plans for more regular drop-in Q&A sessions where you can connect with the team and other members, virtual jam sessions, a member “perks” page with exclusive discounts and offers on recommended products and services, and a new series of live masterclasses with outside experts for you. And of course we'll be continuing to talk with you in the community to find out what you most want and how we can help.   So that's members. We also wanted to do something to help our wider audience who aren't yet members, like our Facebook fans and email subscribers.    So last week we launched a series of free daily masterclass reruns - one hour-long music masterclass every day for a week, free of charge. We have an incredible masterclass library inside Musical U and so it’s been exciting to share some of the highlights more widely, with sessions from folks like "The Learning Coach" Gregg Goodhart, vocal coach Davin Youngs, improv extraordinaire the late Forrest Kinney, and several more. And we've had such a great response to those with hundreds tuning in for every session, we're going to keep that party going with a few more daily masterclasses at least.    Along with those masterclass sessions I wanted to provide a way for those who were eager to get access to even more. So even though we don't usually offer a free trial of Musical U membership, for a limited time we're offering free membership for a full 30 days, with no obligation and no strings attached. So if you miss a masterclass you wanted to catch, or you want to watch them all, or you want the full in-depth skill training that complements them or you want to connect with other music learners like you during this time, then you can come in, try it all for the next month, and not pay a penny. We do of course hope you'll choose to stay, and you can enjoy a big discount on regular pricing if you do - but there's no pressure and no obligation, you're able and welcome to come in, use it all, including the new special events we’re organising for members - and then leave at the end with no payment required.   So that felt like a good start, to do what we can to help our community and wider audience stay engaged in fun, productive music learning at this time.   Of course if you know us here at Musical U you'll know we never pretend to be the one true be-all-and-end-all of music learning - we love to collaborate with and help recommend other amazing online music educators. So from the outset we were also looking for ways to go beyond just what we at Musical U can provide ourselves.   This week we went ahead and added a new "Friends" page to the Musical U website. You can find that by going to musical-u.com and clicking "Friends" in the top menu. This is something we were working on anyway as part of bigger website changes to showcase our mission and more of what we're all about here at Musical U - but given the circumstances it seemed smart to go ahead and make sure all visitors to our site had easy access to our top recommendations for other resources that can help you in your journey of becoming more musical.   As you can probably imagine, that wasn't an easy page to put together! Because I wanted to include pretty much every single one of the amazing guests we've had interviewed here on the show! We did have some particular criteria for who to include though, which is a bit hard to explain until those fuller website changes are made. But just to say if you spot any notable absences, folks like Brent Vaartstra at Learn Jazz Standards, for example, who you know we highly recommend and consider a good "friend" of Musical U - that's no slight on his work, it's just about the particular framing of that page, which will hopefully become clear in due course.   As well as that Friends page, over the last week I've been reaching out to all our friends and contacts in music education to see what they have planned, and paying attention to what's been going on in the various music teacher groups online.    A lot of us have been trying to figure out how to adjust what we do to best serve music learners at this time, and a lot of music teachers have been hastily making the shift to online teaching. A big shout out to some of the amazing teachers-of-teachers like Sara Campbell, Glory St. Germaine, Bradley Sowash, Tim Topham, Anne Mileski and Melody Payne who've been rapidly providing special training and guidance to help with that transition.   So there's a lot going on! And to help you stay musical and stay connected we've put together a special page at stayinplayon.com with details of everything I've mentioned.   You'll find there the free daily Musical U masterclasses and whatever we do next after that, you'll find a list of all the special resources and opportunities with other music education providers online that we know about, as well as a way to let us know if you come across any we've missed. And we're also compiling a list of independent teachers who are accepting new online students at this time if you're looking for something new or you want to support music teachers at this difficult time.    We're also encouraging you to share what you're doing to stay musical during this time, by posting on your social media of choice, whether that's Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or whatever Snapchatty Tik-Toky thing the cool kids are using these days, with the hashtag #stayinplayon - so that even if you're not joining us for our group activities inside Musical U we can all still feel connected and inspire one another to draw on music as our comfort, our refuge and our silver lining at this time.   I would love to hear what you're up to - but instead of our usual invitation to drop us an email I'm going to ask you to put it out there on social media for more people to see and be inspired by. Hashtag it #stayinplayon and we'll see it there.   So head over to stayinplayon.com and check out everything that’s happening and I hope to see you at some of the live events we’re organising for members and the public in the weeks ahead.   Stay healthy. Stay safe.   And together, let’s stay in - and play on!

In this episode we speak with Dr. Sara Campbell about the impact of exercise on intestinal health. Dr. Campbell is an Associate Professor in the Department of Kinesiology and Health. She received her BS and MS from Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania and PhD from Florida State University. Following her PhD she completed a three-year postdoctoral fellowship supported by the USDA. Currently, the Campbell research focuses on two lines of inquiry related to exercise and the intestine. The first includes how exercise impacts the gut microbiome. The microbiome is an expanding area of research focused on how high-fat diets alter the gut microbiome and how this impacts systemic health. Their second line of inquiry is focused on providing an understanding for how changes in the microbiome impact intestinal health and ultimately disease state. Learning Points: • October is breast cancer awareness month. Stats and prevention tips • What is research telling us about the effects of high fat diets on microbes? • How does exercise modify gut microbes? • What types of exercise have the best benefit on gut microbes?

Let us ask: how do you feel about your singing voice?   We're guessing that whether you consider yourself “a singer” or not, your answer probably isn’t “my singing voice is amazing and I am 100% comfortable with how it sounds at all times!”   If you’ve ever felt unsure about your voice - maybe that’s even held you back from trying to learn to sing - or if you are a singer and you’re trying to tap in to “your sound” or “your true voice” - stay tuned.   Today we're joined by Nikki Loney from Full Voice Music. Nikki is a professional singer and voice teacher and creates resources to help other voice teachers with young singers in particular. Nikki was introduced to us by Sara Campbell, our former piano pro at Musical U who’s a voice teacher and singer herself, and she made the connection because Nikki’s speciality is something near and dear to our heart here at Musical U: helping people “make peace” with their voice.   It’s easy to imagine singing as a technical skill, like learning how to move your fingers right to play guitar or piano. But although there is that pure technique that must be learned, singing is unique among instruments because it is so deeply and intimately a part of who we are.   And that means that for many beginner singers - or those who want to begin, or even those who dream of beginning but feel it’s beyond them - the biggest barrier is how we feel about our own voice.   This is such an important part of the the big bundle of “learning to sing” and it’s rarely given enough attention in the establishment of learning to sing - so that only those who are already comfortable about their voice and being a singer actually learn to sing.   As you’ll be hearing, we have a shared passion (slash rage) about how society and culture treat singing and how things can be made dramatically better and more welcoming to those who’ve felt locked out of the world of singing - as well as those who are on the path but have hangups about how they sound.   Nikki has some fantastic insights from a breadth of experience teaching, and in this conversation she shares:   • The gift for singing that she had growing up - and it's not what you might think. • How she found her own voice - and what literally it means to do that, to "find your voice" • How to know if you're good enough to start singing lessons and what specifically can help you to find the right teacher   This conversation was a total delight and we know that whatever relationship you have with singing there are going to be some fresh perspectives and we hope some powerful encouragement for you in this episode.   Subscribe For Future Episodes!

Welcome back to this special pair of episodes celebrating hitting the 100 mark of the Musicality Podcast! If you haven't already heard Episode 100 then make sure you go back and listen to it too because both that one and this one are jam-packed with incredible insights from over two-dozen expert guests, answering the question: “What’s one thing you’ve learned that could help musicians to tap into their inner musicality?” In the last episode we heard from 11 experts whose answers to this question were varied and fascinating. There were some common themes, some of which you'll hear coming up again in this episode, but each guest also brought their own unique perspective and insight to the question. We’ll talk a little more at the end of this episode about those recurring themes and how we can learn more from them. We said last time that we’d tried to group the experts to make for two great episodes to listen to, but apart from that there's no meaning to the order - so the line-up for this episode is just as impressive as the first one. In this episode you'll be hearing: • Bill Hilton, author of "How to Really Play the Piano" talking about the level of instrument technique required to sound truly musical. • Book author, podcaster, song-writer and musician David Andrew Wiebe of MusicEntrepreneurHQ.com revealing three things that can help you sound more like a pro. • Innovator in school music education Casey von Neumann of Eclectic Music and CaseyMcCann.com sharing the tip that let her sound just as musical as her incredibly accomplished teacher. • Leading teacher-of-teachers Sara Campbell of SarasMusicStudio, and our Resident Pro for piano here at Musical U, explaining why young children are often more in touch with their inner musicality and what we can learn from that. • Practice expert Chris Owenby from PracticeHabits.co talking about what it takes to become an accomplished musician like the greats we admire. • Rising star singer-songwriter Kendra McKinley pointing out the thing you're probably forgetting to listen to which could make you sound more musical. • Actress, singer, writer and cabaret expert Fiona-Jane Weston discussing the relationship between technique and artistry, and how to unlock the potential in a piece of music. • Composer and guitar educator David Wallimann on escaping the constraints your instrument might be placing on you. • Author of the must-have handbook for aspiring musicians, "The Musician's Way", Gerald Klickstein, on one activity that will transform your musicality and why it's more vital for music than other artforms. • Music technology expert Katie Wardrobe on one non-tech thing she does to develop her musical understanding. • World-leading vocal expert and sight-reading pro Jeremy Fisher on how to overcome tricky spots and learn music faster. • Creative music teaching expert Leila Viss on the mindset shift required to uncover your own creative voice. • Music theory innovator Scott Sharp on the special way of thinking about keys and chords that can let you understand what's going on in the music you hear and play. • And Vincent James, the man behind some of the most inspiring events and books in the world of music tops off our episode with some counter-intuitive advice for connecting musically with your audience. Are you excited? We’ve already heard all these and we’re excited all over again just talking through them! Before we dive in, if you're somebody who relishes this kind of musicality insight and knowledge then you are not going to want to miss the special edition we've put together to celebrate this 100th episode. It's called the Musicality Podcast Power Pack, and we've taken the first 100 episodes of the podcast plus some clever extra resources to help you get maximum value from each and every episode, AND some super cool bonuses contributed by our expert guests.

Tenacity. That's the attribute Sara Campbell says an entrepreneur must have in order to be successful.  In this episode, we interview Boston based women's clothing designer Sara Campbell.  Born and raised in La Jolla, California, Sara came to Boston to attend graduate school at Lesley College and the Massachusetts College of Art.  A person of great faith and conviction, she was mentored by Sr. Mary Corita Kent whose artwork became an inspiration for her vibrant, colorful clothing line.  Incorporated in 1986 as Sara Campbell Designs, Sara grew her business to 23 stores through good times and bad.  She is proud to manufacture everything she makes in the USA and says designing clothes makes her heart sing.  "It's what I love to do. I want to make my customer feel good about herself and her life."  #storybehindhersuccess   #16lifelessons   Candyoterry.com  

Today we're speaking with Chris Owenby, the man behind the website “Practice Habits” where he shares blogposts and videos to help musicians and especially piano teachers with their students to form more effective and enjoyable practice routines.   As well as running Practice Habits and its corresponding members website for piano teachers, Chris is also an award-winning composer, and the creator of The Online Piano Course, which as you’ll be hearing in this episode is an interestingly different approach to learning piano, both in what is covered and the way it is taught online.   In this conversation we talk about:   • The unusual musical journey that led to him being equally comfortable in the worlds of sheet music and playing by ear • How to find patterns in the music you play, and why that's useful • The clever way Chris has managed to reconcile the importance of adapting teaching to fit each student with providing an online course for learning piano   We expected to focus mostly on practice tips and tricks in this interview but it turned out to be so rich in interesting ideas and advice about playing by ear, improvising, and finding your own way through music learning that we think we’ll have to invite Chris back for a part two in future!   Subscribe For Future Episodes!

Bacteria rules your body. The human gut microbiome produces vitamins, breaks dietary fiber into digestive short-chain fatty acids and govern normal function in the immune system...and that's not all! Dr. Sara Campbell, Associate Professor in the Department of Kinesiology and Health at Rutgers University, shares her research on how exercise and high fat diets alter the gut microbiome impacting intestinal health and ultimately disease state. #rukines

Today we’re getting to speak with someone we’ve been hearing about for years, Forrest Kinney. He’s the author of the Pattern Play series of piano books which you might remember past guests Natalie Weber and Sara Campbell both mentioned as being fantastic for helping students get “off the page” and start to be more creative in their music-making.   He’s actually the author of 35 music learning books. He’s also a highly in-demand speaker, giving presentations on all the interesting things we’ll be talking about today, and still regularly performs, including dozens of private appearances at a certain billionaire’s house - stay tuned to hear about that.   In this conversation we talk about: • Forrest’s own musical beginnings and whether such a creative musician as himself credits talent for that creative success • The 4 Arts of Music that you can pick from and blend to find your own true identity as a musician • A creative way to think about music theory - and his opinion on scales that often gets him in trouble!   If you’ve ever felt like learning to play sheet music note by note just wasn’t the right fit for you as a musician, or you’ve felt the urge to create even though you don’t consider yourself “a creative”, you’re going to love this episode.   We should mention there were a couple of bits here where our connection got a bit patchy and you might hear a few short cut-outs - stick with it, they were very short sections and we don’t think they’ll affect how much you’ll get out of listening to this.   Subscribe For Future Episodes!

Today we're joined on the show by Vincent James, who is the co-founder of an organisation called Keep Music Alive. They organise two big music holidays each year: Teach Music Week and Kids Music Day. In 2017 they partnered with over 600 music school and retail locations to help celebrate Teach Music Week and Kids Music Day by offering free music lessons and holding other community events including open houses, student performances and instrument donation drives. Vincent and his wife Joann are also authors of a book called "88+ Ways Music Can Change Your Life" which features over 100 inspirational music stories from around the world, including a number of celebrities. And as if that wasn’t enough, Vincent is also the man behind LoveSongs.com, writing custom love songs on request.   In this conversation, we was keen to find out more about the musician behind these three fascinating and impressive projects. We talk about:   • The book “88+ Ways…” - what inspired him to take on such an ambitious project and how it came about. I also ask Vincent to share two of his favourite stories from the book. • His experience writing custom love songs for couples and his advice to all budding songwriters. • The two nationwide events he’s organised, partnering with over 600 music schools and stores across the US, to promote music learning.   And Vincent shares the biggest lesson that comes through all of these projects and successes which you can apply to your own musical life.   We've really loved reading a story or two from 88+ Ways each day recently, it’s a great way to stay aware of and inspired by the incredible power of music in our world. Between the stories Vincent shares in this conversation and the events he has coming up in 2018 that you can get involved in, you’re going to come away from this one feeling uplifted and inspired too.   Subscribe For Future Episodes!

Have you wished you could play music without needing to look at notes on a page? In this conversation with Sara Campbell, the Resident Pro for piano at Musical U, we explore a variety of ways you can learn to "find the notes yourself".   In this episode we dive deep into how to get started with playing by ear and improvisation. Sara shares insights and specific tips that can be applied on any instrument, not just piano.   She recommends one particular activity you can try today to get started improvising - and the essential warning you’ll need to hear if you want it to go well!   And she reveals a powerful way to flip your understanding of the piano keyboard and see it in a whole new way - something that’ll be useful for anyone who occasionally dabbles on keyboard, not just devoted piano players.     Subscribe For Future Episodes!

As a yoga student, you've no-doubt heard of pranayama (yogic breathing practices), but you've probably had very little experience practicing it. Yoga breath work is mostly a “lost art” today partly due to the fears and myths that surround the practice. The typical advice from teachers is that pranayama can only be learned after years of asana practice and then you must learn from a master - but is there any truth to that? Probably not.  Breathing practices can serve as a very comfy bridge between asana practice and seated meditation, and for aspiring students, it's a shame to to miss this bridge. On this week's Yoga Talk Show, record-holding free diver, Sara Campbell, joins us to share her experiences with breath-holding, breathing techniques and benefits. Sara Campbell is the founder of, Discover Your Depths, a training program and philosophy that uses yoga, meditation and freediving to help people achieve personal transformation in all areas of their lives. Sara discovered yoga and meditation over a decade ago when her own health was suffering, and just a few years later achieved a record of 90 meter free dive on just one breath of air. Sara teaches yoga, meditation, breath-work and free diving. In this Show, You'll learn: What the “dive reflex” is and how it impacts our breath & body  How safe and/or dangerous is it to reduce breathing? The real vs perceived risks of pranayama (on land)  How breathing can lead to personal and even spiritual experiences    Links & References from the Show: www.discoveryourdepths.com   Got questions?
