Comment passer de la théorie du yoga fonctionnel à une mise en pratique fluide et sécurisée pour vos élèves ? Dans ce 161ème épisode de Bla Bla Yoga, je vous partage mon "fil d'Ariane" : une stratégie en 7 étapes pour structurer votre enseignement sans tomber dans le piège des protocoles rigides.On oublie souvent qu'il n'y a pas de recette miracle en yoga. Chaque corps est unique, et notre rôle de prof est d'accompagner ce cheminement personnel plutôt que d'imposer un alignement esthétique.Au programme de cet épisode :Pourquoi l'intention pédagogique du prof est le point de départ de tout cours réussi.Comment traduire une posture en "fonction" et en bénéfice concret pour l'élève.La différence entre l'archétype (la forme théorique) et la réalité anatomique de chacun.Mes conseils pour identifier les zones cibles et garantir une zone de "non-douleur".L'art d'utiliser les leviers et les accessoires comme des outils de précision.Comment poser les bonnes questions pour rendre vos pratiquants autonomes et experts de leurs propres ressentis.Que vous soyez un jeune professeur en quête de repères ou un enseignant expérimenté souhaitant insuffler un "coup de frais" à sa pédagogie, cet épisode vous donne les clés pour un yoga libre, décomplexé et résolument tourné vers l'humain.Enseignez des êtres humains, pas des postures !Ressources mentionnées dans l'épisode :Guide Gratuit : Télécharge ton guide "Enseigner à la sauce fonctionnelle" pour retrouver toutes les étapes et des exemples concrets : A télécharger ICIÉpisode 99 : Enseigner différemment : les bases d'un yoga fonctionnelTu as aimé cet épisode ?

« Un problème = une solution ». C'est souvent ainsi que l'on nous transmet le yoga : « Tu as une sciatique ? Fais Gomukhasana ». C'est ce que j'appelle le syndrome de la recette de cuisine. Si c'est rassurant au début de notre parcours d'enseignant, cette approche finit par nous enfermer et, parfois même, par desservir nos élèves.Dans cet épisode, je réponds au commentaire de Claire sur Instagram et je vous invite à sortir du "prêt-à-penser". On explore ensemble :Pourquoi la recette est souvent le paravent d'un manque de fond ou de temps en formation.Le mythe de l'alignement sacré : quand la mystique remplace l'anatomie fonctionnelle.Tension vs Compression : Apprendre à voir quand c'est l'os qui dit stop (et pourquoi Tadasana pieds joints n'est pas une règle absolue).L'étude du Chameau (Ustrasana) : Pourquoi le chemin compte plus que la forme finale.Le yoga n'est pas une destination géométrique, c'est une cuisine vivante où l'on fait avec les ingrédients de son propre placard.Références citées :Épisode 88 : Pourquoi Gomukhasana n'est pas l'amie de toutes les sciatiques.✨ Vous aimez Bla Bla Yoga ?

À quel moment parle-t-on d'exercice respiratoire,et à quel moment entre-t-on dans la pratique du pranayama ?Dans cet épisode de Bla Bla Yoga, je propose de poser un cadre clair, sans opposer ni trancher.À partir des textes classiques et de références comme Iyengar ou André Van Lysebeth, on explore ce que recouvre réellement le pranayama, le rôle du prana, et pourquoi respiration et pranayama s'inscrivent davantage dans une continuité que dans une séparation.Je partage aussi ma position d'enseignante :pourquoi je dis souvent que je n'enseigne pas le pranayama…et en quoi c'est à la fois vrai et faux.

Tired of yoga marketing that feels pushy and inauthentic? In this episode, Nyk Danu returns to share her feminine approach to marketing that prioritizes relationships over hustle. If you're a yoga teacher struggling with traditional business tactics that feel "gross" or slimy, this conversation is for you. Nyk reframes common marketing terms from "crushing it" to "overcoming objections" into heart-centered practices that align with your values. In this episode, you'll learn: How to apply feminine energy principles to yoga marketing without sacrificing results Why "overcoming objections" is like unwanted advances (and what to do instead) The seasonal approach to business that replaces constant hustle with sustainable growth How to reframe aggressive marketing "bro" language The circular economy mindset that transforms how yoga teachers think about money When to use masculine energy in your marketing (and when to lean into the feminine)  If you're a yoga teacher who wants to grow your business using an anti-hustle marketing approach that feels sustainable and genuine, this episode is for you. Meet Nyk Danu: Nyk Danu is a certified Yoga Therapist, Yin Yoga Teacher Trainer, Yoga business mentor, and host of A Yin Yoga podcast. Nyk lives in the magical city of Victoria on the enchanted Vancouver Island off the west coast of Canada she teaches Therapeutic Yoga to MisFits. Gen Xers (and sometimes Y) who don't feel at home in mainstream Yoga circles: the rebels, underdogs, introverts, neurodiverse, geeks, and bookworms. Nyk has been practicing Yoga since 1998 and teaching since 2004. She has well over 2000 hours of Yoga Teacher Training, including 500 hours with Paul Grilley and an 800-hour  Yoga Therapy certification. Her passion for Yin Yoga sparked a deep resonance and curiosity for Traditional Chinese Medicine. This then drew her to study 2300 hours of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Pacific Rim College. Nyk has since combined her Yoga Therapy Training, Yin Yoga Training, and Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge to create a unique Therapeutic Yin Yoga teacher training program that has gotten rave reviews. Nyk has been helping Yoga teachers flourish in their Yoga Businesses since 2014 both through her one-on-one business mentorship sessions and through her signature group Program: Marketing with Heart Episode Links: Want to support my work?

Être structuré sans s'assécher.Être sensible sans se disperser.Dans cet épisode, j'explore la relation subtile entre deux éléments fondamentaux de la Médecine Traditionnelle Chinoise : le Métal et l'Eau. Deux forces qui façonnent notre rapport aux limites, au cadre, à l'intuition et à la fatigue profonde. Un regard honnête et incarné sur la rigidité, la dispersion, et ces déséquilibres invisibles qui influencent nos choix, notre énergie et notre manière de traverser la vie.Avec des clés concrètes et un lien vivant avec la pratique du Yin Yoga.REJOINS NOTRE FORMATION YIN YOGA & MÉDECINE CHINOISE :https://www.helenwatkins.yoga/50h-yin-medecine-chinoiseEn savoir plus sur Helen ? https://www.helenwatkins.yogahttps://www.instagram.com/lnwatkinsHébergé par Ausha.

Et si l'immobilité en Yin Yoga n'était pas ce que vous pensiez ?On nous dit souvent : « Trouvez votre limite, puis restez immobile ». Mais derrière cette consigne se cache un monde de nuances. Y a-t-il une différence entre ne plus bouger et être réellement immobile ?Dans cet épisode, je vous invite à explorer la frontière entre l'absence de mouvement — ce que l'on voit de l'extérieur — et l'immobilité habitée, cet état vibrant où la vie continue de circuler sous la surface. À travers l'image d'un paysage de montagne enneigé, nous verrons comment le Yang palpite au cœur du Yin et comment transformer une posture subie en une expérience de présence profonde.Nous aborderons également :Le verrou anatomique : Pourquoi l'immobilité est parfois impossible pour votre squelette (et comment le yoga fonctionnel nous sauve).Le rôle de l'enseignant : Comment "tenir l'espace" et apprivoiser le silence sans chercher à remplir le vide à tout prix.La boîte à outils : Utiliser le souffle et le rebond pour donner une ancre à votre attention.Que vous soyez enseignant ou pratiquant, cet épisode est une invitation à observer, à tester et, surtout, à jouer avec vos propres sensations.Bonne écoute !Références citées dans cet épisode :Épisode 15 : Comment enseigner le Yin Yoga sans s'ennuyer pendant des annéesÉpisode 69 : Cinq respirations du Yin YogaÉpisode 76 : Comprendre les variations anatomiques - Bases, prévalence et impact sur la pratique du yogaÉpisode 108 : Le secret du rebond : comment intégrer une pratique durableÉpisode 150 : Yin Yoga sans équipement : astuces pour remplacer bolster, briques et sanglesPour poursuivre l'aventure, rejoignez la Newsletter qui s'adresse aux profs de Yoga.

We have exciting book news! Jo's upcoming book "Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga" is now available for preorder! As Jo explains with palpable excitement, this book is "a compilation of my life's work in aerial yoga." Her book is structured around Patanjali's Eight Limbs, drawing from interviews with experts, evidence based research and lived experience in a way that honours both tradition and innovation. She candidly shares how "I'd really like my book to kind of help to address some of that lack of in-person community" within the aerial yoga world. For those planning ahead, Jo's Bali retreat is also on the horizon, promising another opportunity to experience her teaching in that magical setting. In this episode we reach out to our podcast community and have some insightful questions from past guests including Jivana Heyman, Cyrille Caille, Dr Esme Dark, Chloe Prendergast, Nada Todorovich, Claire Holloway and Sasha Sigel. One of the most touching aspects of this episode is how Jo reflects on her podcast journey and its unexpected connection to her book writing process. "I do feel like the podcast has really paid me back with the book," she shares, highlighting how the relationships and conversations from the show have enriched her writing in ways she never anticipated. The generosity of their podcast community shines through as they discuss how past guests have become genuine supporters, creating what they describe as "that network of sharing." Many past podcast guests feature in the book, including Jivana Heyman who wrote an beautiful foreword. The conversation takes on a more reflective tone when they explore the delicate balance between teaching and learning in yoga practice. Jo's honest admission that "if I've done a training and I don't teach the things that I've learned in the training, they do not stay in my brain" speaks to a truth many yoga teachers will recognise. This vulnerability around the learning process, combined with their discussion about maintaining humility while teaching, creates space for a really meaningful exploration of what it means to be both student and teacher simultaneously. Their approach feels refreshingly honest in a field that can sometimes feel pressured toward perfectionism. Perhaps the most powerful moment in the episode comes when they tackle the challenging question of how to maintain inner peace while responding to global crises. Rather than offering simple platitudes, they dive into the complexity of staying grounded while remaining engaged with the world's pain. As they put it, "having the tools to find your own inner peace... can help you have the time and space to respond in a way that's thoughtful and kind." This perspective offers a practical framework for anyone struggling to balance personal practice with social responsibility, suggesting that inner work and outer action can actually support each other rather than compete. The episode wraps up with a delightful exploration of their unique work-life setup, running a yoga studio connected to their home. Their discussion about creative freedom - "if it's your own space, you can do more things just for fun that don't necessarily need to be profitable" - reveals the joy they find in their unconventional arrangement. Throughout this entire Q&A, what emerges most clearly is not just their expertise or accomplishments, but their genuine care for their community and their commitment to showing up authentically, even when that means admitting they don't have all the answers.

Pourquoi est-ce parfois si difficile de décider, même quand on sait au fond de soi ce qui est juste ?Dans cet épisode, j'explore la décision non pas comme un acte mental, mais comme un mouvement énergétique, à travers le regard de la Médecine Traditionnelle Chinoise.Nous parlons du méridien de la Vésicule Biliaire, de clarté intérieure, de direction, et de cette capacité subtile à avancer sans se disperser.Un épisode pour celles et ceux qui hésitent, doutent, suranalysent…et qui sentent qu'une autre manière de décider est possible, plus calme, plus alignée, plus incarnée, soutenue par la pratique du Yin Yoga.REJOINS NOTRE FORMATION YIN YOGA & MÉDECINE CHINOISE :https://www.helenwatkins.yoga/50h-yin-medecine-chinoiseEn savoir plus sur Helen ? https://www.helenwatkins.yogahttps://www.instagram.com/lnwatkinsHébergé par Ausha.

La spiritualité doit-elle être visible pour exister ?Dans ce dernier épisode de Bla Bla Yoga hors cadre, on parle de yoga sans parler de postures.On parle de signes, de symboles, de rites, de visibilité… et de ce que cela raconte — ou non — de notre rapport à la spiritualité.Inspiré par la lecture de Yoga, nouvel esprit du capitalisme de Zineb Fahsi, cet épisode ouvre une réflexion : est-ce parce que la spiritualité se montre qu'elle est réelle ?Ou est-ce qu'elle se vit d'abord, de manière plus intime, plus incarnée, parfois invisible ?Cet épisode est une invitation à observer ce que l'on fait, ce que l'on répète,et ce qui fait vraiment sens pour chacun.Bonne écoutePour poursuivre l'aventure, rejoignez la Newsletter qui s'adresse aux profs de Yoga.

Et si l'hiver n'était pas une saison à traverser, mais une saison à honorer ?Dans cet épisode, je t'invite à explorer l'hiver à travers le regard de la Médecine Traditionnelle Chinoise. Une vision cyclique, profonde et apaisante, qui nous aide à comprendre pourquoi cette saison demande du ralentissement, du silence et une attention particulière à notre énergie vitale.Nous parlerons de l'élément Eau, des Reins, de la réserve d'énergie, de la peur comme émotion associée, mais surtout de comment vivre l'hiver aujourd'hui sans s'épuiser, dans un monde qui ne sait plus s'arrêter.Un épisode pour te reconnecter à la profondeur, protéger ton énergie, et traverser l'hiver avec plus de justesse et de douceur.REJOINS NOTRE FORMATION YIN YOGA & MÉDECINE CHINOISE :https://www.helenwatkins.yoga/50h-yin-medecine-chinoiseEn savoir plus sur Helen ? https://www.helenwatkins.yogahttps://www.instagram.com/lnwatkinsHébergé par Ausha.

Le yoga n'est plus à la mode ?Depuis quelques mois, cette phrase circule partout.Accroche efficace… mais que raconte-t-elle vraiment ?Dans ce troisième épisode de la série Hors Cadre, je prends cette idée comme point de départ pour observer ce qui se joue aujourd'hui autour du yoga, sans chercher à trancher.Je parle :– de l'âge d'or du yoga et de la saturation des studios– de l'exemple de Vancouver– du cas YogaWorks, entre expansion rapide et fermeture– des prévisions de croissance du marché yoga & méditation en Amérique du NordMalgré les fermetures de studios, le yoga ne disparaît pas.Il se transforme, se déplace, et questionne nos modèles.En fin d'épisode, je propose un déplacement du regard :moins se focaliser sur ce qu'on ne maîtrise pas,et s'intéresser à ceux qui continuent de venir… et à ce qu'ils viennent chercher.Un épisode pour ouvrir la discussion, sans réponse toute faite.Pour poursuivre l'aventure, rejoignez la Newsletter qui s'adresse aux profs de Yoga.

Je ne sais pas si la souplesse est un Graal.Mais je sais que la quête qu'on met derrière mérite parfois d'être interrogée.Dans le yoga d'aujourd'hui, la souplesse est devenue centrale.Objectif, preuve, promesse silencieuse.Alors même que, historiquement, le yoga ne cherchait ni la performance du corps, ni son accomplissement visible.Dans cet épisode de la série Bla Bla Yoga, hors cadre, je prends le temps de questionner ce glissement :d'où il vient, ce qu'il produit,et ce qu'on vient vraiment chercher quand on s'acharne à vouloir devenir plus souple.Pas pour répondre.Pour ouvrir un espace de réflexion.Pour poursuivre l'aventure, rejoignez la Newsletter qui s'adresse aux profs de Yoga.

In today's episode I talk to Eleanor Rutman about:

Avant même de dérouler le tapis, il se passe déjà quelque chose.Venir pratiquer le yoga en groupe n'est jamais un geste neutre. Il y a le corps tel qu'il est aujourd'hui, l'humeur du moment, les pensées qui circulent, et parfois cette impression diffuse qu'il faudrait être dans le bon état, le bon corps, le bon espace intérieur pour vraiment avoir sa place.Dans ce premier épisode de la série Bla Bla Yoga, hors cadre, je pars d'une question en apparence anodine, qui a pourtant suscité de fortes réactions, pour déplacer le regard. Non pas vers ce que l'on fait en posture, mais vers ce que l'on porte en silence en entrant dans une salle de yoga : une charge mentale discrète, faite d'injonctions, d'attentes, de comparaisons souvent intériorisées, qui façonnent déjà l'expérience de la pratique.Cet épisode n'apporte ni cadre idéal ni réponse définitive. Il ouvre une réflexion sur ce que devient le yoga lorsque l'on cesse de vouloir répondre à tous les « il faut » qui s'invitent jusque dans les espaces censés nous en libérer. Une invitation à observer, à faire un peu de tri, et peut-être à revenir à l'essentiel.Pour poursuivre l'aventure, rejoignez la Newsletter qui s'adresse aux profs de Yoga.

Dein motivierender PowerTalk für Neuanfang, Fokus und Vertrauen in dich selbst Du stehst an einer inneren Weggabelung und spürst, dass etwas Neues beginnen möchte, du dich aber noch unsicher fühlst? Wenn der Wunsch nach Veränderung da ist, gleichzeitig aber auch die Sehnsucht nach Halt, Orientierung und innerer Sicherheit. Wenn du merkst, dass es dich müde macht, immer wieder im Außen nach Antworten zu suchen und du beginnst zu ahnen, dass die eigentliche Stabilität nur in dir selbst entstehen kann. Und wenn du bereit bist, mutig nach vorne zu gehen, mit Klarheit, Fokus und Vertrauen in dich selbst. In dieser Podcast Folge erwartet dich ein zutiefst berührender PowerTalk für das neue Jahr. Kein oberflächlicher Motivationstalk und kein schneller Push, sondern eine ehrliche, tiefgehende Einladung, dir selbst wieder näherzukommen. Es geht um Motivation, persönliche Entwicklung, innere Klarheit und emotionale Stärke. Du wirst daran erinnert, dass Wachstum nicht trotz Krisen entsteht, sondern durch sie. Dass Klarheit nicht aus Perfektion wächst, sondern aus innerer Entscheidung. Und dass du nicht warten musst, bis alles sicher ist, um loszugehen. Dieser PowerTalk schenkt dir Mut für deinen Neuanfang und unterstützt dich dabei, innere Sicherheit in dir selbst zu finden, statt sie weiter im Außen zu suchen. Er hilft dir, den Fokus zu halten, dich nicht zu verzetteln und deinen nächsten Schritt bewusst zu wählen. Gerade zum Jahresanfang fühlen sich viele Menschen hin und her gerissen zwischen Aufbruch und Angst. Diese Podcast Folge gibt dir Orientierung, stärkt dein Selbstvertrauen und erinnert dich daran, dass du bereits alles in dir trägst, was du brauchst. Du darfst aufhören zu warten. Diese Folge ist ideal für dich, wenn du nach Motivation für das neue Jahr suchst, wenn du dich mit Persönlichkeitsentwicklung beschäftigst, wenn du dich in einer Übergangsphase befindest oder wenn du dir mehr innere Klarheit, emotionale Stabilität und Vertrauen in dich selbst wünschst. Motivation, innere Arbeit, Achtsamkeit und persönliche Weiterentwicklung auf eine Weise, die nicht nur inspiriert, sondern nachhaltig stärkt. Höre dir diesen PowerTalk am besten in Ruhe an. Vielleicht mit geschlossenen Augen. Vielleicht mit einer Hand auf deinem Herzen. Lass die Worte wirken und nimm das Gefühl mit in dein Jahr. Mut. Klarheit. Innere Sicherheit. Und die Gewissheit, dass du deinen Weg gehen kannst, auch wenn noch nicht alles sichtbar ist. Wenn du spürst, dass du tiefer eintauchen möchtest, dich nach Verkörperung, Sinnlichkeit und echter Verbindung zu dir selbst sehnst, lade ich dich herzlich zu meinem Sinnlichkeits- & Weiblichkeits Retreat für Frauen vom 19.–25.08.26 im Shanti Space in Portugal ein.

In this episode, I sat down with international educator Kali Basman to explore the profound terrain of inner coherence. Kali seamlessly bridges Yin Yoga, Buddhist psychology, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), teaching us how to meet our inner 'parts' on the mat. We discussed the power of somatic inquiry, nervous system regulation, and how this holistic approach guides students back to their natural rhythm of wholeness. Support the showConnect with Inner Peace Yoga Therapy Email us: info@innerpeaceyogatherapy.com Website Instagram Facebook

I Really Underestimated Myself This is a podcast with two important messages: 1 – I bet like me you are comparing yourself to someone where the comparisons is complete unfair.   And while you are stuck in compare and despair, you are under-valuing and under-estimating the skills, knowledge and experience you do have.  2 – We all should have some form of digital products, some form of scalable, semi-scalable offer, where we can help more people, stop trading all our time for money and experience the joy of making money in your sleep – whoop! After talking to a group of around 50 female entrepreneurs a few weeks ago I realised that I know my stuff when it comes to creating and selling online, digital products.  I know how to create a mixed model business, where we get to have human interactions, in-persons offers and have scalable digital products. I know how to create multiple streams of income from your gifts! But if I am honest I never considered myself digital course creator, and sure I've helped many 1:1 and mastermind clients create income this way, in truth I've shied away from it because I'm not one of the big million-dollar course creator players! But I do make online course sales every month – why I am not talking about this more? Because of compare and despair! No more my friend, I am loud and proud saying I absolutely know how to help you make money from a digital offer. Eyes peeled for my October masterclass!  Work with me further Grab my free webinar “Energetics of Selling - https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/energetics-of-selling Hear me weekly on Substack for only £4.40 a month, join here - https://energymindsetmoneyandmore.substack.com/ Business strategist and Mentor for soul-led entrepreneurs  https://www.amyjonesmentor.com/ Train with me Yin Restorative, Pregnancy and Postnatal yoga  www.amy-yoga.com   

The Power Of A Low Cost Offer It's offer season, and like me, lots of service-based businesses and business coaches are tapping into the back-to-school post-summer vibes.  Of course, we want to make it clear why people need us and our offer, but I've seen some claims that don't add up, and that certainly don't give the whole picture. I'm sure you've seen it: “I make £40K a month from a $27 offer” – great, that may be true, but they never share ad spend, audience size and conversion rates. “Why sell a £97 course when you can make £3k with one corporate client?”.  True, this is a lot easier than selling 31 £97 courses, but nurturing relationships so corporate and 1:1 clients are ready to make higher value long-term commitments happens to no one overnight. The conversation missing is how a low-cost product/offer could work for you and your business.  You can build an offer suite that gives people an opportunity to dip their toe in the water with a lower-cost paid offer. I have two £97 courses, I love running, I love the impact they have, and they are the main way I meet my future 1:1 and mastermind clients.  There is power in a mini course. Yes, most of us won't be making 5 figures a month from lower-cost courses, but for many, including myself, they make a brilliant foundational offer. A mix model business is a strong business, built out that offer suite your way. Go high, go low and go everywhere in between.

Profit Versus Turnover You can tell by the length of today's episode that this is a topic I am passionate about! Yes, I can now claim I am a six-figure business owner, across my two businesses I have passed that magic, dare I say made-up, marker of success. I am proud of the growth in my business.  But let me reassure there is a huge difference between turnover and profit and too often these figures are used to mis-sell to people. Promises of formulas to £5K and £10K months, six-figure or multi-six figures business and five figure launches, are not what I am here for. Are the people making these promises talking about how long they've been growing their audiences, how much they have invested in paid ads and how big their team is?  Alongside turnover are they discussing profit, tax and VAT? Maybe. But in many instances people are sold a false promise, that may not be realistic for them based on where they are in their business. Not to mention where they are in terms of a financial energetic set point. I know to earn more, I'll also need to work on my ability to receive more money; action alone is not enough. I have to believe it possible. What's the point of scaling to an arbitrary goal that isn't mine if it means I don't run my business how I want to, if I don't live my truth. The real truth here is – you get to decide. More money in your hands is a good thing, over time you will expand to receive more, but the amount you desire will always be unique to you. I'm here to meet you where you are and expand from here. Work with me further.

In this encore episode, we explore the mental health benefits of yoga with guest Addie deHilster. Addie, a mindfulness meditation teacher and certified yoga therapist, discusses her work integrating movement modalities like Yin yoga to enhance mindfulness and meditation practices. We discuss how Yin yoga, described as embodied meditation, provides mental health benefits, including stress resilience and improved nervous system regulation. MEET Addie DeHilsterAddie deHilster is a Mindfulness Meditation Teacher and C-IAYT Yoga Therapist. Her passion is teaching movement practices that "unlock" mindfulness skills, and helping students gain traction in their meditation practice so they can be more present in their lives. Yin Yoga is one of the main modalities she practices and teaches, as it is an excellent doorway into embodied meditative stillness. Now based in Vancouver, Washington (USA), she previously owned and operated a community yoga studio in Los Angeles, California, for over five years. A dedicated practitioner of Buddhist Insight Meditation, she has accumulated over four months of silent retreat practice over the years. She is a graduate of the Mindfulness Mentor Training with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach, the InsightLA Mindfulness Facilitator Training, and the 2014-15 Mindfulness Yoga & Meditation Training Program at Spirit Rock Meditation Center, which is a program dedicated to weaving together the wisdom traditions of Hatha Yoga and Buddhist meditation. She has studied Yin Yoga with Bernie Clark, Paul Grilley, and Sarah Powers. Addie is the founder of the Moved to Meditate Class Library, the host of the Moved To Meditate Podcast, and she offers online Yin Yoga Teacher Trainings with a mindful, therapeutic emphasis.Find out more at Move To MeditateUnderstanding Yin YogaMental health benefits of Yin YogaConnect With Me The Yoga Therapy CollectiveYoga Basics: The Therapist's Guide to Integrating Trauma-Informed Yoga into SessionsInstagram: @chris_mcdonald58Facebook: Yoga In The Therapy PodcastJoin the private Facebook Group: Bringing Yoga Into the Therapy RoomTikTok: @YogaChris58Rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, TuneIn, and SpotifyHow To Build Competence and Confidence in Integrating Yoga Into the Therapy Room

#361 In this episode, Guy introduced Aaron Schultz, to discuss the importance of breaking cycles and stepping into one's true purpose. The conversation covered Aaron's personal journey of awakening, including traumatic childhood experiences and transformative moments such as a Kundalini awakening. Aaron emphasized the role of emotional literacy and self-awareness in healing, particularly for men, and described the impactful work he is doing in Australia to support men's mental health. They also delved into the significance of practices like Yin Yoga, meditation, and Kundalini Yoga in addressing trauma and improving overall well-being. Aaron highlighted his ongoing efforts through the Outback Mind Foundation, including men's meditation circles, retreats, and educational initiatives aimed at reducing domestic violence and promoting mental health. The discussion underscores the potential for individual healing to create a ripple effect, leading to positive change in society. About Aaron: Aaron Schultz is a strong advocate for a preventative approach to men's health. Having overcome his own period of huge self-doubt, crippling anxiety and poor lifestyle behaviours caused by overwork and burnout, Aaron managed to turn his weakness into his strength, becoming a teacher of meditation, yoga and anxiety management education. Aaron now has over 7,000 practical teaching hours, and is the driving force behind establishing The Outback Mind Foundation in regional Queensland, and now it's expansion throughout regional Australia.

In this episode of the podcast, I'm talking with Francine Ang about the joys and challenges of teaching yoga and mindful movement during tumultuous times. Francine shares what it's been like leading classes in her community since they were impacted by the recent LA Fires, and we reflect on what it means to find ground through practice. You'll hear about Francine's background growing up in a Chinese Buddhist family in California, and how she ended up spending a year at a monastery in Tibet. We talk about her path to becoming a yoga teacher and how she's now integrating Qigong alongside Yin Yoga and Restorative Yoga. Since many yoga, movement, and meditation teachers these days are grappling with how to hold space in the midst of the current political intensity, divisiveness, exhaustion, and constant uncertainty, we thought it would be useful to discuss our experiences of teaching through other times of change and chaos. We share some guidance and stories, including: The importance of meeting people where they are and giving them space to step back from the noise Acknowledging loss and uncertainty, but also staying open to goodness and beauty How Francine found being in class together following the Eaton Fire was a way to bring back some normalcy Examples like Addie's story of how the Spiral Path Yoga community handled the sudden passing of a teacher/co-owner right after we opened the studio. We also talked about going on retreat, and why we both value the opportunity for more dedicated practice times. Francine makes a useful distinction between retreat as an escape vs. retreat as an experience of arriving, and she shares how being in silent presence with others can be incredibly grounding. This is a conversation with lots of heart, and plenty of laughs! We hope you'll find some steadiness, inspiration, and connection by hanging out with us in this episode. ------------ For more links and resources mentioned in this episode, find the show notes at movedtomeditate.yoga/podcast.

DAY EIGHTEEN April Mindful Minutes challenge:FIRE MEDITATIONToday's episode focuses  on the natural element of FIRE.  Feel a sense of energy, warmth, passion, and comfort in this meditation.  Additional moments of silence will be introduced with 5-minutes of quiet near the end of the meditation.If you wish to skip the introduction and go straight to the meditation, begin at 2:40.BREATHING TIPS FOR THIS MEDITATIONUjjayi pranayama involves breathing through the nose, slightly constricting the back of the throat (the epiglottis) to create a soft, hissing sound, similar to the sound of the ocean.  With the mouth closed inhale through the nostrils then slowly release and exhale through the nostrils.  Expand and Release: fill the air as you expand the belly, lungs and ribcages when you inhale and a release that air & emptying out when you exhale.CHECK-IN: Before and after each practice I will invite you to check in and rate your stress level from 0 - 5.0 = low5 = high⁠Follow along daily for 30 days to create a meditation habit. ⁠⁠⁠ Start anytime!

In this week's episode,  I'm talking to mi hermana Dominicana, Tiffany Leonardo, a healthcare educator who pivoted from teaching healthcare to teaching self-care. Tiffany tells us all about her career in healthcare, what it was like growing up as a first-gen daughter who was a little different than everyone else, and how she found that her family was living a life of dis-ease after three family members were diagnosed with cancer. Tune into this episode as we laugh, vibe, and unpack everything from sound healing, medical astrology, and of course, being a first-gen Latina navigating it all on her own.  Tiffany's extensive time in the operating room has fueled her passion for teaching and deepened her understanding of stress and its detrimental impact on the body. Believing that blossoming as a teacher requires being a devoted student of life, Tiffany has completed various training modalities. Her studies include Katonah Yoga with Mary Dana Abbott, Art of Assisting from Baron Baptiste Yoga, and Anatomy & Asana immersion with Emilie Perz. She has also undergone Breathwork training with Marlize Joubert, intensive Yin Yoga training with Yoga Loft, Qigong with Mark Tanaka, Sound Healing with Susy Markoe Schieffelin, and an apprenticeship in Acupressure and Yoga integration with Hydra Yoga. In essence, Tiffany's dream is to inspire individuals to explore and discover their fullest selves through a deeper connection with their mind and body, no matter the environment. Keep up with Tiffany on their website and Instagram.  For all Hella Latin@ updates, follow @hellalatinopodcast on Instagram and connect on LinkedIn. More at odalysjasmine.com.
