This episode is an EPIC conversation with my friend Nyk Danu about the question of if, when, how, and why we use yoga props in Yin Yoga. Nyk is the host of A Yin Yoga Podcast, and she reached out to propose this crossover episode to share on both of our shows, because the no-props-in-Yin myth is a topic near and dear to both of our hearts. So what you'll hear here is less of an interview and more of a back and forth, or “fireside chat” (as Nyk calls it) where we really unpack this sometimes-controversial Yin subject. As you'll hear, the question of whether (or how) to use props in Yin Yoga touches on issues like accessibility, able-ism, trauma-informed teaching, and all kinds of cultural conditioning that sneaks into our practice. We talk about what it means to be true to a style or lineage, and how we align with the principles that make a Yin practice “yin.” As we explore where the anti-props misnomer comes from, Nyk and I also reflect on our experiences training with the founders of the Yin Yoga style, and how the functional approach to yoga requires that we adapt poses to individual bodies. We also give several specific examples of how props have helped our students get more from the practice, and debunk the assumption that you'll outgrow using props as your practice advances. There are also some practical suggestions for situations where minimal props are available, or where propping is too complicated or unable to solve a student's challenge with a pose. So, pull up your favorite blankets and bolsters, get comfy, and enjoy this fun and informative Yin Yoga conversation! ---------- Guest Bio: Nyk Danu is a certified Yoga Therapist, Yin Yoga Teacher Trainer, and Yoga business mentor. She's a fiercely independent sagittarius, misfit, introvert, bookworm, cat charmer, crow whisperer, Buddhist, seeker of truth, and long term pro-activist who's not-so-secretly out to save the world. In 2007 she fell madly in love with Yin Yoga and has since done 500+ hours of Yin Yoga training with Paul Grilley. 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, and she is also the host of A Yin Yoga Podcast. ---------- For more links and resources mentioned in this episode, find the show notes at movedtomeditate.yoga/podcast.

Host Jeff Revilla welcomes three guests to play three rounds of high stakes trivia.How AI Watched this Episode:If you'd like to create AI driven summaries from your audio content, check out Castmagic.ioGAME SUMMARYWelcome to another thrilling episode of "Stuff I Never Knew," the trivia game show podcast where guests compete in a series of challenging and entertaining rounds to showcase their knowledge on a wide array of topics. Hosted by the ever-enthusiastic Jeff Revilla, this episode features three formidable contestants: Megan, Ayla, and Bintou. Each contestant brings their unique flair and knowledge to the table, guaranteeing an exciting and unpredictable episode. Joined by the laughter-triggering sound effects and a playful atmosphere, the stage is set for another unforgettable trivia showdown.Round 1 RecapIn the first round, Jeff kicked things off with a quirky game called "Yoga Pose or Kama Sutra Position." Contestants were tasked with determining whether the given names referred to yoga poses or positions from the Kama Sutra. Ayla started confidently but stumbled on the "feathered peacock," mistaking it for a Kama Sutra position when it was a yoga pose. Bintou followed, misidentifying the "fire log" as Kama Sutra. Megan managed to guess correctly with the "one-legged king pigeon," earning her first point. The round continued with mixed results and much laughter as the participants tried to navigate through Jeff's intriguing list. By the end of Round 1, the scores were tight, with Megan leading slightly ahead of Ayla and Bintou.Round 2 RecapRound 2 saw the contestants dive into traditional trivia categories: sports, entertainment, and the arts. Ayla, seeking redemption from her previous appearance on the show, had a mixed performance; she correctly identified Walter White's profession from "Breaking Bad" but struggled with a question about ABBA's hit song "Waterloo." Bintou, focusing on her strengths, fared well in the entertainment category but faltered in the sports questions, reflecting her self-professed lack of interest in that area. Megan shone brightly in this round; she deftly answered questions about "Walk the Line" and the Rolling Stones' first hit single, solidifying her lead. The buzzer round concluded with Megan in the lead, followed by Ayla and Bintou.Round 3 RecapThe final round was a rapid-fire challenge featuring video hints and visual puzzles, where contestants buzzed in to answer progressively easier clues for decreasing points. Highlights included Megan quickly identifying South Africa for a country and Bintou correctly guessing Hershey Park based on a series of clues. Ayla managed to redeem herself slightly with a correct guess of the Andes Mountains. As the questions grew trickier, the competition intensified, with all contestants showing remarkable quick-thinking and trivia prowess. Megan maintained her lead, navigating the clues with precision, while Bintou and Ayla fought valiantly for second place.ConclusionThis episode of "Stuff I Never Knew" was a rollercoaster of trivia excitement, full of surprises and amusing moments. Megan emerged as the night's champion with 12 points, followed closely by Ayla and Bintou. The show wrapped up with each contestant getting a chance to plug their personal projects, making the episode not just a test of knowledge but a celebration of diverse talents and stories.
