Kula Yoga Collective Ann Bingham

Meditation is hyped as the end all be all of wellness.  It helps with stress, depression, even your immune system.  And the people who meditate seem just so...zen.  

But what about the rest of us? 

What about about all of us with monkey brains that are going a mile a minute, that can't calm our brains for even a second, that can't even seem to close our eyes to meditate, much less clear our minds (and write run on sentences when we get stressed????)

Well guess what?  Yoga Teacher, Ann Bingham is one of those.  And her husband, Rob is too.  And he's a bit of a skeptic on this whole meditation thing.  

Sit down with Ann and Rob and listen to how Ann finally broke through to tame her monkey brain, and how we hack some really common questions about meditation and how to get started.  

Dan Harris's book, Meditation for Figity Skeptics, is a great starting resource.  here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/Meditation-Fidgety-Skeptics-Happier-How-ebook/dp/B06Y58KF6P/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1595706499&sr=8-2

Creativity isn’t just important for artists. Entrepreneurs, teachers, parents, students, we all need creativity to thrive in our changing world. Movement can be the answer. But what kind of movement is best for the challenges you’re facing?

Are you an introvert or an extrovert? 

Introverts and extroverts make great partners if we can get our puzzle pieces to fit.  How do we acknowledge our own gifts, and recognize the strengths in others so that we can really make magic happen?  Those are some of the questions that we answer today.

Today, we explore what it means to practice Ahimsa. What's the difference between nonviolence, and not causing pain? How do we apply this to ourselves, our relationships, and how can we make a more just and compassionate world?
