Tejal is an Indian American yoga teacher, writer, podcaster, and community organizer. She advocates for yoga through a social justice lens through her online studio, the abcdyogi global community, and the Yoga is Dead podcast. We talk about our respective journeys to becoming yoga teachers and the issues we see in the yoga and wellness world. From spiritual bypassing to centering physical movement to the co-opting of words like namaste, what is presented as yoga here in the west is an extracted and appropriated version of a spiritual practice.  Tejal shares with us that creating community has always been a part of her life, and that the point of yoga is to care for the collective and for those who are most at risk. She encourages us to go beyond living a life that is simply fine and to do what we are passionate about. She also reminds us of the importance of rest — of finding the savasana in our day.  Tejal is an example of what it means to be a true yogi. Tejal IG Leah IG

For years, multiple Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have relied on integrated assessment models or IAM modelling pathways to achieve global net zero targets.  The IPCC reports and IAM pathways have become key drivers of government policy on keeping a lid on global warming in many countries.  However, scholars from Global South have argued that IAMs have failed to incorporate the principles of equity and rights of developing countries while charting decarbonisation pathways. For instance, questions have been raised about how it is fair to ask both the U.S. and India to achieve a net zero by 2050, given U.S. massive historical emissions. To discuss the issue of lack of equity in net zero pathways, and ways for designing equitable models for climate action, we interviewed Dr. Tejal Kanitkar, Associate Professor at National Institute of Advanced Studies, and Dr. Rahul Tongia, Senior Fellow at the Centre for Social and Economic Progress. Both Tejal and Rahul are India's leading scholars and thinkers on climate and energy policy and have decades of experience working in this area.

Tejal Rao is The New York Times' restaurant critic for California, a cooking columnist for The New York Times Magazine, and the author of the Times' weekly vegetarian newsletter, The Veggie. In today's session, Tejal opens up about losing her sense of taste and smell when she had Covid, what it felt like to get it back, how she's adjusted to life in Los Angeles, and being a picky eater as a child. We also cover the start of her career as a food critic, how she goes about writing a review, whether she worries about hurting a chef's feelings, going with her mom to Noma Tokyo and eating raw shrimp covered with ants (spoiler: her mom liked it!), and setting the internet on fire with her article claiming that California's bagels are better than New York's (I agree).

"Hurt people, hurt people." This powerful and profound phrase holds so much truth. When you are a victim of any form of trauma, and you have the healing and ability needed to step back and look at the person who caused you pain, you can often find that the hurtful behavior patterns that someone exhibits stem from pain that another person had caused them earlier in their lives. We asked Tejal to join us today to specifically talk about Narcissistic behaviors and how these negative behavior patterns could be broken.Tejal Patel is the host of the Time-In Talks Podcast, and author of The Mom's Choice Gold Award winning book Meditation for Kids: 40 Activities to Manage Emotions, Ease Anxiety and Stay Focused and motivational speaker.Her doable approach to family meditation and mindfully handling meltdowns (yours and your kids) sets her apart from the traditional self-help crowd and makes her a go-to expert for modern parents who want to NamaSLAY stress, snap less and raise mindful kids too.*******Tejal V Patel is a former divorce attorney turned certified mindful parenting coach, breathwork, meditation and mindfulness expert for families.Tejal has appeared in NBC10, Fox 29, Phl17, Pix 11, Yoga Journal, Parents Magazine, The Huffington Post, Us Weekly Magazine among other places spreading awareness about the Kids Can Meditate movementtejalvpatel.comhttps://instagram.com/tejalvpatel*******The Third Place Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners into the hard conversations that we have a tendency to avoid.We “go there” on things such as…How anger is beautifulHow to find presence amidst chaosHow to have difficult conversationsHow to be an allyHow to live with griefThe Third Place is a safe place where curiosity is encouraged, differences are welcomed, and empathy is embraced through healthy dialogue.We've forgotten how to talk to each other… Life has become polarized and dualistic - you're either with me or against me. To embrace the complex human experience is to see the world through other's eyes. The Third Place podcast helps with the disconnect. This looks like less conflict and tension and more like a peaceful existence with others.

Now that that is happening, I wanted to have her on the show to expand on some of those earlier discussions, but perhaps more importantly, since she's on the cusp of opening her own hotel, dive in to bridge the theory discussions of the past several months with the realities of a working asset. We're both very cognisant that discussions about work culture can come across as nothing more that complaining so we try to keep this discussion constructive with concrete examples that hopefully inspire new thinking and actions.

 “What if meditation was a part of a child’s daily routine, along with showering and brushing their teeth? How would it change their life?” -Tejal V. Patel May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we are having episodes all month focused on how to strengthen our own mental health as mothers, as well the mental health of our children. In http://3in30podcast.com/181-emotional-wellness-in-kids (last week’s episode), we learned from Lisa Sabey, founder of Parents-to-Parents, that mental wellness is based on SKILLS. Skills that can and must be taught from a very young age. Research shows that one of the foundational skills for mental wellness is mindfulness--the ability to notice and process our emotions.  In today’s episode, I’m honored to be interviewing Tejal V. Patel, a mindfulness and https://tejalvpatel.com/ (meditation advocate) for families, who is going to teach us HOW to incorporate daily meditation skills into life with our children, making it as integral a part of our daily routine as brushing our teeth. *** -Tejal V. Patel’s 3 Takeaways for Teaching Kids Meditation-  Know the difference between active meditation and passive meditation, and focus on active meditation with beginners.This means making movement part of your meditation practice, as you build basic meditation skills like breathing.  Don’t try to teach your child meditation in the midst of a meltdown. With daily mindfulness practice, you will find that massive meltdowns are fewer and farther between because they will build more ability to self-regulate. Be the guide from the side, not the sage from the stage. Even if you yourself have never practiced meditation, you can still teach your kids to do this. You can learn with them!  >>>Will you try any of these tips from Tejal V. Patel? What would you add to her takeaways?
