Fortunately, there is help along this path in the various types of yoga, or methods for coming into the One.Ram Dass explores different forms of yoga, including hatha yoga (energy), dhyan yoga (meditation), jnana yoga (wisdom), bhakti yoga (devotion), and tantric yoga (senses). He says we should work with whichever form calls to us, or we can be a “chicken soup eclectic” like he is. Finally, Ram Dass answers some questions from the audience. He talks about intuition, the darkness that comes before spiritual growth, social identities, dealing with attachment to your child's predicament, and more.The Ram Dass community gathers regularly to engage in meaningful discussions about the podcast.

Learn more at ramdass.org.“What I'm saying to you is, which yoga is appropriate for any human being, only that human being can figure out. And you can only figure it out by trying and testing and looking and quieting your heart and opening. One of you, it will be perfect for you to study and read holy book and Vedic tracts and things. For someone else, it'll be absolutely perfect to start to work with the energy. For someone else, it'll be perfect to do tantra. And it is not better or worse. These are merely different strategies. And some you will be sort of like I am, sort of like a chicken soup eclectic. And I do sort of play with all of these at a kind of superficial level.” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send Jackie A Message!AI is changing the fitness, wellness, yoga, and Pilates industries fast — but most studio owners are unsure how to actually use it without hurting their business.In this episode of the Studio CEO Podcast, Jackie Murphy breaks down how to use AI in your yoga or Pilates studio the right way — and where automation can quietly cost you revenue, retention, and trust. Jackie explains why AI should be treated like a team member with a specific role, not a replacement for leadership, coaching, or human connection.You'll learn where AI saves time, where it becomes risky, and why misusing AI in cancellations, sales conversations, and brand voice can damage long-term growth. This episode also covers how AI fits into studio software, marketing, admin systems, and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) — and why human judgment still matters more than ever.If you're a studio owner wondering how to stay relevant, profitable, and human in 2026 and beyond, this episode will give you clarity and confidence.Timestamped Outline[00:00] Why this episode exists + industry fear around AI[03:00] Will AI replace coaches and studio owners?[06:00] Thinking about AI as a team member[08:00] Where AI goes wrong in marketing and brand voice[11:30] Why AI should edit, not write your content[15:30] Speed-to-lead and automated responses (done right)[18:30] Why AI should NOT handle cancellations or refunds[21:30] Objections, retention, and human conversations[24:00] Using AI for SOPs, systems, and organization[27:30] The rule studio owners must remember about AI[28:45] Final thoughts on humanity, leadership, and growthWork with Jackie Murphy Say Hi on Instagram @studioceoofficial Level up your Marketing Skills in the Free Marketing Training:https://www.jackiegmurphy.com/3-marketing-mistakes Learn more about The Studio CEO Program: https://www.jackiegmurphy.com/studioceo

This episode feels like a full-circle moment as I wrap up the final episode of 2025. Before we step into a new year, I take some time to share what's coming up in 2026 for the Let's Talk Yoga and Aham Yoga community. There's a lot unfolding, from a brand-new 300-hour online yoga teacher training to in-person study and international travel, and I wanted to lay it all out clearly so you know what's ahead and how to be part of it.After the updates, I'm joined by Rebecca from the Working in Yoga podcast for a thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation on creativity in yoga teaching. We explore how teachers can stay innovative without crossing into performance, why reverence still matters, and how professionalism, boundaries, and self-inquiry shape longevity in this work. It's a reflective conversation about teaching, aging, motivation, and remembering why we came to yoga in the first place.Episode Highlights:Exciting Announcements for 2026300 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training200 Hour In-Person TrainingInternational Yoga Retreat in ItalyTime-Sensitive Updates RecapCreativity in Yoga TeachingBalancing Tradition and CreativityEngagement vs. Entertainment in YogaEvolving Yoga Teaching MethodsStudent Agency and Teacher GuidanceLearning and Teaching YogaExploring Cultural Appropriation in YogaFinding Your 'Why' in Teaching YogaMarkers of Success in Yoga PracticePersonal Motivations and Aging GracefullyThe Importance of Professional BoundariesReverence and Cultural Differences in YogaNavigating Marketing and Authenticity in YogaFinal Thoughts and Upcoming TrainingsWaitlist for the Online 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training (launching January)Sequence Smarter – The Living Body of AsanaFor teachers living in India, reach out to Janessa at admin@ahamyoga.com for special local pricingJoin our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on Instagram

Once again, J offers his annual year end reflection on where things stand going into the new year. He discusses the grief of learning that a family member has terminal cancer and the mixture of love and sadness that the holiday season entailed, the difficult realization that he will likely need to close his yoga center, contributing factors and underlying economics, online algorithms, trade organizations, the dissolution of identity and career paths, realms of man vs realms of divinity, and finding an honest and straightforward way of proceeding through life.   To subscribe and support the show… GET PREMIUM.

One of the biggest causes of suffering in our lives is the fact that nothing lasts forever. It's not only true that all good things must come to an end, but all things must come to an end. In this episode, Thom reminds us that Nature has the final say on what is, and what no longer is relevant in the natural process of evolution. Rather than resisting Nature's timing, our suffering is reduced or eliminated if we embrace Nature's timing.Once again, Vedic meditators have a natural edge in putting this into practice. Listen to the full episode to explore the complete teaching, or watch it on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/99fcBENajAsEpisode Highlights00:45 Evolve03:58 You Are a Production06:03 A Universe That Wants a Story07:48 Constant Atomic Exchange11:26 Identifying Irrelevancy Through Vedic Meditation14:14 Constant Relevance Refreshment17:15 The Dangers of the Ever-Repeating Known20:19 Disruption and Relevance23:13 Letting Go of Rigid Attachment25:45 Contextualizing Pain30:34 Welcome to the Solution to All ProblemsUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Hi everyone! I have been so busy with the holiday season, planning a new business, and keeping up with current work! I've been having so much fun... and thank you for understanding the late podcast! I thought that sharing some of the MOST EXCITING and supportive transits for 2026 would be a short and sweet way to encourage the biggest New Year's resolutions. Please remember this isn't comprehensive, as I believe we have even more to look forward to. Today we discuss two periods that have a Saraswati Yoga. This is when Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury all transit the same sign. Saraswati is the goddess of knowledge, education, music, art, and refinement. Though, because she is a goddess, she also represents wealth and beauty! She is usually depicted riding a swan and holding a veena. This is one of the most auspicious and beautiful yogas, in my opinion!This period of time is BEAUTIFUL for new ventures, launching programs, publishing a good, or announcing good news. Listen to this podcast for more 2026 tid bits... More to come!YOUTUBE:D9 exploration:https://youtu.be/HTgYcjltyasCharacteristics of Your Spouse:https://youtu.be/i_cOvdSbjy0Soulmate Astrologyhttps://youtu.be/ExnDysvjzUwChristine:website: innerknowing.yogainstagram: astrologynow_podcastpatreon: patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast keywords: astrology, jyotish, Vedic astrology, sidereal astrology, nakshatras,  spirituality, Christine Rodriguez, aries, libra, scorpio, libra, capricorn, Nakshatra, new moon, taurus, Venus, Jupiter, Pisces, Spirituality, horoscope, retrograde, eclipse, solar eclipse, new moon, lunar eclipse

Programa 26/12/25: Analizamos cómo el calor extremo influye en decisiones económicas. Hablamos del plan de autodeportación en EE. UU., compartimos una historia de superación utilizando el yoga y la meditación, y cubrimos las noticias deportivas.

In this rich and wide-ranging conversation, Ali sits down with yoga teacher, author, and anatomy educator Rachel Scott to explore what it truly means to live as a body – not just to have one.Beginning with a candid inquiry into modern yoga culture, Rachel gently peels back the layers of Western commodification to reveal yoga's deeper purpose: presence, self-regulation, and intimacy with the living intelligence beneath our habits and conditioning. From there, the dialogue opens into a profound exploration of embodiment as a spiritual practice – one that includes sensation, relationship, desire, stillness, and paradox.Drawing on decades of practice, Rachel shares how yoga, anatomy study, and contemplative stillness have shaped her understanding of consciousness, love, and human connection. Together, Ali and Rachel reflect on mindfulness versus “body-fulness,” nervous-system awareness in dating and relationships, and the wisdom of listening to the body's cues around safety, timing, and consent.The conversation also moves tenderly into themes rarely spoken aloud: fertility, choice, grief, freedom, and the many ways maternal love can be expressed beyond childbirth. Rachel speaks openly about her journey through wanting children, confronting ambivalence, and ultimately trusting the larger intelligence of life – an experience that reshaped her relationships, her work, and her sense of self.Weaving together yoga philosophy, Tantra, anatomy lab awe, and everyday relational practice, this episode is an invitation to slow down, feel more, and honor the mystery of being embodied. A heartfelt exploration of love, presence, and the courage it takes to listen deeply to the body's quiet truths.FOR MORE ALI MEZEY:ALI - WebsiteALI - LinkTreeALI BIO: Ali Mezey is a Body Therapist, Family Constellation Work Facilitator, Sexologist and Media Maker with over 40 years of experience.

For example, substance dualists believe that the mind is part of the soul and the soul resides completely outside of the body.Non-dualism: Non-dualism refers to the idea that all things are interconnected and not separate. Distinctions like self and other, or good and bad, are illusions created by the mind. Essentially, it's about recognizing the unity and interdependence of all phenomena.Proprioception: also referred to as kinesthesia, is the sense of body position, movement, and force. It is the unconscious awareness without visual input and is sometimes referred to as the sixth sense.There are three primary types of proprioceptors: muscle spindles, Golgi tendon organs (GTOs), and joint receptors. Each distinct type provides different information that together shape the sensory profile of the body's positioning and motion.Interoception: Interoception is awareness of your body's internal senses or signals. It identifies how you feel. You can consciously or unconsciously respond to these signals. For example, if your stomach rumbles, you know you're hungry.YOGA DEFINITIONS:Shiva: He is the Supreme Being in Shaivism, one of the major traditions within Hinduism. Shiva. God of Destruction. God of Time, Yoga, Meditation and Arts. Lord of Yogis and Physicians.

Life doesn't always go to plan. In fact, life rarely seems to go to plan. We can't let those little bumps in the road, or even huge obstacles keep us from moving forward in our life. We need to be able to shift into another gear, change lanes, or take another route. This meditation hopes to help remind us that there is always another way. There is always plan B. One breath at a time.

Colette is joined by Dr. Ishan Shivanand, mental health researcher, professor, bestselling author, and founder of Yoga of Immortals (YOI). Raised in Indian monasteries within a 21-generation yogic lineage, Dr. Shivanand brings a rare integration of ancient wisdom and modern science. His groundbreaking double-blind RCTs show up to 82% improvement in insomnia, anxiety, depression, and overall quality of life in as little as 4–8 weeks. Together, they explore how meditation, breathwork, Yoga and Ayurveda can transform mental health and how these ancient sciences understood the mind long before modern neuroscience. This conversation offers both profound insight and practical inspiration for anyone seeking holistic wellbeing and preventative health practices. In this episode, they discuss: How a 21-generation monastic lineage shaped Dr. Shivanand's understanding of the mind What ancient Yogic and Ayurvedic teachings reveal about consciousness and brain function Dr. Shivanand's perspective of today's scientific understanding of mental health The surprising results of the 12 month clinical studies on the impact of meditation on short and long term health How Yoga, meditation and breath unlock expanded states of consciousness and why they are essential for human evolution Links & Resources Practice of Immortality Book by Dr. Ishan Shivanand - https://ishanshivanand.com/about-the-book/ Group Digestive Reset Cleanse – Join the next Group Cleanse starting January 23rd, 2026 https://www.elementshealingandwellbeing.com/group-cleanse Private DIgestive Reset Cleanse - choose dates that work for your schedule.

Is it possible to meditate like the ancient masters? Tune in for an inspiring discussion with Malcolm Fletcher on his new book The Way of the White Lotus The Divine Yoga of Streamline Meditation.  Moments with Marianne airs in the Southern California area on KMET1490AM & 98.1 FM, an ABC Talk News Radio Affiliate!  https://www.kmet1490am.comMalcolm Fletcher, founder of Streamline Meditation, asserts that meditation is a naturally occurring state rather than a technique or method to be mastered. According to Fletcher, meditation is not something we must strive to achieve; instead, it is an inherent aspect of our lives. The challenge, he believes, lies in our inability to recognize its subtle presence. As a result, we often disturb this delicate state and overlook its profound significance. https://streamlinemeditation.comPurchase the book here: https://www.motilalbanarsidass.com/en-us/products/the-way-of-the-white-lotusFor more show information visit: https://www.mariannepestana.com/

This episode is a reflection on a year marked by grief, loss, and profound inner reckoning. I share openly about the death of my teacher, the unraveling of relationships I once trusted, and the disorienting experience of being misunderstood, judged, and rejected in ways I did not expect. What began as a single loss rippled outward, touching every area of my life. Along the way, I was forced to confront painful truths about friendship, projection, and the limits of compassion when others are committed to misunderstanding you. Through it all, one thing remained steady: practice. Yoga has never been performance or achievement for me. It is where effort becomes prayer, where breath becomes an offering, and where I reconnect with something deeper than circumstance. Practice did not erase the pain of this year, but it gave me the strength to keep standing inside it. In this episode, I explore: Grief as a force that reshapes identity, relationships, and belief The difference between honest feedback and cruelty rooted in unprocessed pain Why some people react with hostility to joy, light, and devotion The limits of persuasion when someone has decided who you are in their story How social media amplifies judgment, outrage, and division Why tending the "garden of the heart" is the only real work we can do Falling and rising in practice as training for resilience in life Strength as the courage to keep the heart open rather than shutting down The power of speech, intention, and conscious listening Community as imperfect, fractured, and still sacred Why yoga remains unbroken even when people and institutions feel divided I also reflect on the teachings that continue to guide me, including the idea that the true practitioner remains steady in praise and blame, friend and foe. I am not there yet. The words still sting. The grief still enters. But I am learning what strength actually means. This episode is an offering to anyone who has felt shaken, misunderstood, or tempted to dim their light in order to belong. It is a reminder that joy and sorrow can coexist, that devotion does not require approval, and that the practice lives on through sincere breath, effort, and presence. As long as yoga is practiced with honesty, the lineage has a future. And within that future, there is light. Continue the Practice If you are looking for a steady place to practice, I invite you to join me on Omstars for the January 30 Day Flexibility Challenge. In just 20 minutes a day, we return to breath, movement, and consistency as a way to build strength, flexibility, and resilience on and off the mat. Omstars members can join the challenge at no additional cost. If you are new, you can sign up for the Omstars email list and try the first three days of the challenge free. https://omstars.com/courses/30-day-flexibility-journey-with-kino-macgregor

The holidays can be joyful… and also a lot—especially if you're introverted, neurodivergent, parenting a neurodivergent kid, or trying to manage family expectations without burning out.In this episode, we share the holiday traditions that actually work for their family—and the boundaries that make those traditions possible. We talk about front-loading expectations, time boundaries, demand avoidance, and why it's okay to let other people have their feelings when you don't meet their expectations. You'll also hear practical strategies for navigating social events (without forcing yourself or your child to “perform”), plus a few favorite holiday rituals—from cookie baking to Christmas Eve dinner to a Christmas Day zoo trip.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by holiday gatherings, unsure how to set boundaries with family, or stuck between “being flexible” and “protecting your nervous system,” this conversation will help.In this episode: • Holiday boundaries for introverts and neurodivergent families • Why time limits reduce anxiety (and increase participation) • Setting expectations with relatives ahead of gatherings • Demand avoidance, sensory overwhelm, and holiday rituals • How to navigate parties with roles, structure, and exit plans • Letting people be disappointed (without taking it on) Hosted on Acast.

In this Healthy Waves episode, Avik Chakraborty sits down with Anjuly Rudolph to cut through the noise around yoga. They unpack why yoga is not just poses or flexibility goals, and how the original purpose is mind training, nervous system regulation, and emotional balance. Anjuly breaks down what gets lost in modern “fitness-only” yoga culture, shares beginner-friendly entry points for busy people, and explains why breathwork, grounding, and proper relaxation are non negotiable if you want results that actually stick. Expect practical, at-home micro habits you can run for 7 to 14 days to feel a real shift in stress, sleep, and energy. About the Guest: Anjuly Rudolph is a transformational catalyst blending yoga, hypnosis, energy healing, and coaching. Raised with deep yogic roots in an Indian family, she has carried this work across Uganda, Burundi, Syria, Tunisia, and Germany. She also trains yoga teachers in Germany and focuses on making yoga practical, grounded, and culturally respectful. Key Takeaways: Yoga is a full system for mind and energy, not just stretching or fitness. Asanas are only one small part of yoga. The bigger goal is calming mental fluctuations. A beginner does not need flexibility. Lack of flexibility is often the reason to start gently. Simple joint movements can be a low-barrier daily practice for mobility and stress release. Breath awareness is a fast lever for shifting your nervous system state. Grounding at the start of practice helps you actually “arrive” in your body. Final relaxation matters. Skipping it breaks the system and reduces benefits. Yoga Nidra is not the same as lying down quietly. It is a structured practice. Yoga supports emotional processing even when you cannot clearly name the emotion. A practical 14-day test: 2 minutes of conscious breathing morning and night, plus joint movement before sleep.
