Podcasts about Yoga teacher training

We've talked about what the eight limbs of yoga are and where they came from (if you missed that episode just scroll a few back) but what is each limb's practical, energetic, and spiritual significance in modern life? From the ethical and personal observances of Yama and Niyama, respectively, to the physical aspects of Asana, the breath control of Pranayama, and the mental focus of Dharana. And of course how it all culminates in the exploration of Dhyana and Samadhi. The Eight Limbs are here to help you cut through the noise and come back to what really matters, this episode will explain how. Listen and learn:

How can we better support those giving birth? And those supporting them?In Part 2 of this honest and empowering conversation, Hannah and consultant midwife Maria Buaki-Sogo explore how we can bring more humanity, agency and nervous system awareness into maternity care.They discuss the importance of clear boundaries for both birthing people and care providers, the role of yoga in restoring trust in the body, and how small changes in language, presence and practice can make a big difference.Whether you're a yoga teacher, birth worker or someone who cares deeply about how we support people through pregnancy and postpartum, this episode offers insight, inspiration and practical tools.Topics covered:Creating safety through nervous system-aware careBoundaries as a form of support and sustainabilityThe intersection of yoga, birth and self-trustEmpowerment through language and presenceSupporting care providers as well as birthing peopleAbout MariaMaria is both a practicing nurse and a midwife, last working as a Consultant Midwife.Maria moved to the UK in 2010 from Spain, where she trained as a Registered Nurse and worked for three years as an A&E resus nurse. On arrival in the UK, Maria worked at Imperial College NHS Foundation Trust, gaining significant experience as a theatre nurse across a variety of specialties, from trauma-emergency cases to elective procedures.Her midwifery experience includes various roles within a maternity setting, including low risk and high-risk pregnancy care, emergency obstetric care and the post-operative management of women who have undergone caesarean sections.Her midwifery roles comprise of rotational midwifery (providing antenatal care, intrapartum care, and postnatal care), community midwifery care, caseload midwifery care for vulnerable women, homebirth midwifery services and research nursing and midwifery.Maria is also a former Lead Nurse for North Thames Genomic Medicine, where she led the nursing workforce in the North Thames Region to explore and re-design clinical pathways of care to implement routine genetic testing in the National Health Service (NHS) via national transformational projects reporting back to NHSE/I (National Health Service England and Improvement).She is also an Adult Nursing Lecturer, teaching applied physiology.It is Maria's passion for research that has led her to pursue a career as clinical academic and to complete a PhD following achievement of an MSc in Research in Midwifery Studies in 2018, as she believes research is of great importance in developing clinical practice, standards, and advances in care.Maria is also a passionate advocate for the incredible charity Borne - you can find out more about their incredible ⁠work here. ⁠Learn more with Alba Yoga Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about our Yoga Teacher Training here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch our extensive library of YouTube videos.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Hannah on Instagram.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Celest on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

I'm back with Chapter 2 of the Bhagavad Gita! This is so dense I had to split it into two parts. Today we'll discuss verses 1-38. This chapter serves as a foundation for understanding the eternal nature of the soul (Atman) and the importance of non-attachment in the face of life's challenges. Let's look at Arjuna's emotional turmoil and Krishna's tough love approach, emphasizing the need for inner stability and the acceptance of life's transient nature. The emphasis on the immortality of the soul, the significance of understanding one's Dharma, and the win-win perspective in life. This chapter literally has all of Krishna's essential teachings. Making it a gold mine. Get ready to learn from the original life coach (Krishna):

What if everything you've learned about pranayama tells only half the story?In this episode, Jason Crandell breaks down the two radically different approaches to pranayama found in traditional Hatha Yoga and Patanjali's Raja Yoga. These lineages share a goal—liberation through practice—but their breathwork techniques, underlying philosophies, and mechanisms of transformation couldn't be more different.Whether you're a yoga teacher, a teacher-in-training, or a student curious about the deeper roots of breathwork, this talk will help you understand: • Why pranayama in the Hatha Yoga tradition focuses on energy, purification, and awakening Kundalini • Why Patanjali's approach to pranayama emphasizes stillness, subtlety, and inner quiet • How each tradition views the purpose of pranayama in relation to the mind, body, and spirit • What these differences mean for your breathwork practice and teaching todayThis lecture is excerpted from Jason's online Pranayama Teacher Training, a comprehensive course that combines modern science and traditional wisdom to help yoga teachers build confidence in teaching breathwork.

What if the way we support birth needs to evolve just as much as the science itself?In this episode, Hannah speaks with consultant midwife, nurse, researcher and yoga advocate Maria Buaki-Sogo about her journey from emergency medicine to holistic maternity support. Drawing on years of frontline experience across hospitals, homes and communities, Maria shares how her perspective on birth has shifted and what she's learned about truly supporting women through one of life's most transformative experiences.Together, they explore what's working, what's not, and how we might rethink maternity care with compassion, communication and collaboration at the centre.Topics covered:Lessons from emergency and community-based birth workSupporting midwives in high-pressure systemsWhat holistic, woman-centred care really looks likeThe role of advocacy in everyday maternity workWhy nervous system awareness matters in birthAbout MariaMaria is both a practicing nurse and a midwife, last working as a Consultant Midwife.Maria moved to the UK in 2010 from Spain, where she trained as a Registered Nurse and worked for three years as an A&E resus nurse.

You don't me to tell you that the world as we know it is burning to the ground. This makes teaching yoga hard, important and strange. A few episodes back I answered the question, “Should we talk about current events in our yoga classes?” By essentially saying, “maybe… but most likely YES.” In that episode I talked about how important it was to have an understanding and point of view about what the yoga teachings would say about current events. I received a ton of great feedback about that episode, and also a lot of questions. So we are diving deeper into those questions with my friend Hari-Kirtana Das.  Hari-kirtana das (he/him)  is a yoga teacher, spiritual mentor, and the author of two books on yoga philosophy: Journey Into the Bhagavad Gita: A Guide to Exploring Timeless Principles of Transcendental Knowledge and Integrating Them Into Your Life and In Search of the Highest Truth: Adventures in Yoga Philosophy.  Hari has been practicing devotional and other yogic disciplines for over 40 years, has lived in yoga ashrams and intentional spiritual communities, worked for Fortune 500 companies and Silicon Valley start-ups, and brings a wide range of spiritual knowledge and life experience to his classes, workshops, and presentations. He's on the faculty of numerous Yoga Teacher Training programs, offers live online workshops and courses throughout the year, and his mission is to illuminate the many ways in which the yoga wisdom tradition can guide us toward meaningfully transformative spiritual experiences. In this episode, you'll hear: why it makes sense for yoga teachers to talk about current events and politics in class how  teachers can start to make the connections between current events and yoga philosophy Hari's formula for delivering a great dharma talk ideas to help teachers integrate philosophy into asana class And stay tuned for Part 2 of this conversation coming soon!

Stress isn't the enemy , ignoring your body is.In Part 2, the conversation goes even deeper into the science and soul of healing. Ann and Celest explore how yoga impacts mental health, stress resilience and the nervous system.Ann shares practical tools to regulate your vagus nerve, explains the science behind yoga "snacks" and exercise breaks and unpacks the myths still lingering in the yoga world. Plus, she offers a powerful reframe around stress, movement, intuition and why listening (really listening) might be the most healing practice of all.About AnnAnn Swanson is a self-confessed science nerd. She speaks and teaches on the key research supporting yoga and meditation, along with the basic anatomy for adapting yoga to be safe, effective, and accessible for all body types and conditions. Ann's books; ⁠Science of Yoga⁠ and Meditation for the Real World, present the science and practice in a straightforward and simple way. …But she is also open to spirituality and believes there are some questions that science perhaps can't answer, but she will continue to ask and continue to explore with endless curiosity.Learn more with Alba Yoga Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about our Yoga Teacher Training here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch our extensive library of YouTube videos.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Hannah on Instagram.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Celest on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠

To be human is to have seasons, to have cycles, to have movements of highs and moments of lows, and let's not forget everything in between. How we hold space for ourselves as business owners in all of these seasons is how we ensure our long-term business success. Can you not let the lows mean anything?  Can we sit in the discomfort of something not selling? Can we not let the highs be moments we miss, or don't celebrate, or worst still, tell ourselves we can't keep this up? Can we allow ourselves to be in the space of the in-between, where we are open to receiving and just getting on with those everyday tasks and life. It's all needed, it's all neutral, it's all part of being human, can we let it all exist! As a business coach, I not only practice holding space for myself through my seasons, but for my clients too.   In fact, I show up more when my clients are in a low moment, guiding them through this and seizing the opportunity that is there is something I love doing. Navigating this alone is nearly impossible. I invite you not to.

DAY TWENTY-THREE April Mindful Minutes challenge:SETTLE INTO STILLNESS (23 minutes)Congratulations! You're in the final week of the April Mindful Minutes challenge!  It's time to level-up and experience longer periods of silence to truly practice cultivating a meditative state of mind.  I started you with baby steps with ONE MINUTE on Day One, leading you in “high guidance” mindfulness sessions. The meditations slowly got longer with “medium guidance” where I slowly lengthened the periods of silent meditation.  Now this week I am introducing TWO 10-minute stretches of silence with a brief intermission. You will hear the sound of bells, my voice, then I'll guide you back into the second 10-minutes of silent meditation. Days 23-25 will be the same giving you the opportunity to practice these longer silent meditations.  The only difference being each day getting one minute longer.  CHECK-IN: Before and after each practice I will invite you to check in and rate your stress level from 0 - 5.  Note if the number changed after your meditation.0 = low5 = highLet me know what your experience during this meditation.  I really want to know how it's going for you!⁠⁠Follow along daily for 30 days to create a meditation habit. ⁠⁠⁠⁠ Start anytime!

This week we ran a Chakra Workshop and decided to publish it to our podcast. During the session we chat about the 7 main Chakras, where they are within the body, what they're linked to in regards to emotions, spiritual and physical.The highlight of the session is a guided colour visualisation to welcome balance and awareness of each of these energy centres. Then we finish the session with a short Q+ A about our upcomoing Yoga Teacher Training!If you enjoy this chat and it's sparked a big curiosity, our Yoga Teacher Training 2025 could be a great next step for you. Our very last early bird session is now live!This is what we spoke about during the episodeChakra translates, in Sanskrit, to wheel or disc, they are also known as energy centers. Each of these energy centres corresponds to different aspects of your life.The Base Chakra or the Muladhara chakra (red) is right at the base of the spine and represents our safety, our stability, our physical needs, and how grounded we feel.The Sacral Chakra or Svadhisthana (orange) is our Chakra just below the navel that's linked to our creativity and emotional health.The Solar Plexus Chakra, or Manipura (yellow), is located in the upper abdomen and is linked to your inner power, confidence and self-discipline.The Heart Chakra or the Anahata chakra (emerald green or pale dusty pink) is right into the center of your chest and is linked to love, compassion, and connection for yourself and for others.Vishuddha Chakra or the Throat Chakra (blue) is linked to the idea of speaking up or speaking your truth.The Third Eye chakra, or Ajna (indigo), is linked to your intuition or inner wisdom. When you are balancing your third eye, you will trust your intuition and feel like you have a very clear mind.The Crown Chakra or Sahasrara (bright light white or violet) is also known as the Thousand Petal Lotus. You'll feel connected to something greater when this chakra is balanced.Experience the beauty of colour visualisation in this Chakra workshop!

She gets real about her first time teaching - imperfections and all. It's a lovely reminder that it's never too late to try something new and find your people.

I saw 8:11 (no joke this happens to me) and I set up to record.I recorded a video for you AND it took several takes because the mic was on mute...sheesh I finally finished, just a short check-in, uploaded the video THEN it published UPSIDE DOWN!

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Yoga with Amelia Andaleon!DAY EIGHT April Mindful Minutes challenge:EIGHT MINUTES - DIRGA BREATH✅ Congratulations on completing week one of this 30-day mindfulness challenge!Today I'm introducing you to Dirga breathing which is a basic yoga breath work technique or pranayama.  Almost six minutes of this episode is an introduction, including any contraindications.  If at any time you feel discomfort, gently stop the practice.  CHECK-IN: Before and after each practice I will invite you to check in and rate your stress level from 0 - 5.0 = zero worries/stress, 5 = feeling like you're going to lose it.MY STORYWhen I began learning breath work, I had to ease into it. I didn't realize I was breathing so shallow.  Oxygenating my lungs & brain initially made me feel dizzy and anxious, which can be typical experiences when first learning deep breathing.  As I continued practicing, I increased my lung capacity, I reduced my need for my inhaler (I had asthma), and I increased my overall sense of well-being. ~15 years later my asthma is gone.  I also realized my asthma was triggered by stress and anxiety.  Once I learned how to breathe & manage stress, my asthma disappeared.  Still hard to believe!That's just one profound way how meditation and breath work have made a difference in my life.These episodes are posted at 7am PST. Follow along daily for 30 days to create a meditation habit. Start anytime! To experience the cumulative benefits, practice daily, ideally at the same time every day. As each meditation gets longer, you can choose to follow the daily meditation or repeat a previous meditation. Choose what helps you best stick to a daily practice.

In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of Yoga Sutra 2.33 Pratipaksha Bhavana. But really, we go on all kinds of tangents! From global issues like Gen0cide and climate change, to bringing self-awareness to our own reactions and letting go of control.And also! We are running this FREE workshop soon! During the workshop, you will learn how to tune into your body, mind, emotions and energy with your chakras! We invite you to a chakra workshop happening on the 16th of April.We're going to go through each of the chakras and talk about how you can balance and align each of them in a very practical way that will help drive self-awareness and focus your energy.Hop on the waitlist for our Yoga Teacher Training 2025 to sign up for the masterclass!This is what we spoke about during the episodeWhen you're overwhelmed by negative thoughts, choose to cultivate the opposite. But just like everything in Yoga, this is a practice. It doesn't just happen.Pratipaksha Bhavana is a tool that helps you stay in alignment to the Yamas and Niyamas. Listen to our 10-part snack-sized Yoga philosophy series on the Yamas and Niyamas.The wild world we're living in and how it's affecting our mental and emotional state.The emotional rollercoaster we all ride and how Yoga philosophy helps us stay grounded.Nischala Joy Devi's translation and interpretation of Pratipaksha Bhavana helps to change your attitude rather than hoping to change the situation or the people who cause you to be unhappy. Anand Mehrotra's translation talks about how Sutra 2.33 is all about practising the Yamas and Niyamas. When you find yourself uncertain and terrified by life, use your tools and bring Ishvara Pranidhana into your consciousness. Surrender. Powerful reminder: you can't control others, but you can choose your response.Navigate anxiety by welcoming in excitement for your life. Yoga Sutras are wonderful tools and constant companions to guide you and help you move through life.If you loved this episode, share it with friends and family.
