    Season 2 Episode 12: Sex And the State Of The World

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I first have to apologise as I get on my soapbox and a little fired up talking about this. This episode might resonate more with the women in this audience but its definitely for the guys too. I talk about how yoga in the west has been seriously sexualised, through fashion, pop-culture, branding and marketing, morphing it into something with far less than the respect and gravitas it deserves. I also talk about how vital it is more than EVER for us all to be starting a serious practice. I promise I dont talk poilitics and I only use the "T" word (Trump) once. If you have any comments, questions or anything you would like to hear about related to this podcast, I'd love to hear from you.

    Season 2 Episode 9: Explaining The Holistic And Healing powers of Ayurveda & Functional Medicine with Garima Pandey

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I get to have a lovely conversation with my friend and Ayurvedic Doctor Garima Pandey, all about Ayurveda and functional medicine and how a blend of the two is such a powerful combination in terms of holistic health.  Garima was recommended to me by a friend on my first trip to India in 2020. I was struggling hard in an abusive relationship and my IBS on that trip hit new levels of debilitation and left me curled up in severe pain in my hotel room with friends bringing me plain boiled rice and bananas for several days. Meeting Garima changed my life. She taught me all about holistic Ayurvedic medicine and root cause medicine. Her soft and caring manner made me feel so seen and heard and her approach was nurturing and nourishing. I will always be so grateful to her for ending my cycle of severe stomach cramps and chronic diarrohea that heightened my anxiety, left me feeling helpless, depressed and isolated and left my body severely depleted and run down. It also left me with a negative relationship with a body that I couldnt understand and was angry with for letting me down. Garima is an incredible woman, and a wealth of wisdom and knowledge blending ancient and modern medicine together in a perfect synergy. If you are struggling with a health concern and have tried everything else, Garima is the person you need to contact. (please see below) I hope you enjoy this first of many conversations with beautiful Garima. You can contact Garima and find out more about the amazing services she offers here:  https://shriasha.co.uk/ Or here: Email: info@shriasha.co.uk If you have any comments, questions or anything you would like to hear about related to this podcast, I'd love to hear from you.

    Episode 8: Everything, Everywhere, All At Once: The Infinite Possibility Of You

    Send us Fan Mail Hi everyone, in this episode I share my musings around the brilliant 2022 Michelle Yeoh film: Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. It ties in so beautifully with the yogic concepts of self, ego, buddhi and divine love, and brilliantly and weirdly! shows how we can all be trapped by our limiting thoughts, behaviours and self concepts, and how if we are not careful this can turn to darkness. Our power for expansion if we choose to walk towards increasing self awareness and healing, is infinite. I didnt say it was easy, but it is possible. I hope you enjoy the episode. If you have any comments, questions or anything you would like to hear about related to this podcast, I'd love to hear from you.

    Season 2 Episode 5 Part 3: Exploring The Eight Limbs Of yoga With Katja Patel

    Send us Fan Mail This is the final installment in the amazing conversation I had with one of my teachers the lovely Katja Patel. In this last part we look at the final three limbs: Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi. These final 4 limbs (incluidng Pratyahara) are all concerned with the mind and stages of meditation withinn your practice. They guide us in how to train the mind to focus, develop our meditation practice and elevate our consciousness to help us move towards Samadhi- oneness, union, enlightenment or a "super conscious" state. Katja and I are not experts but we love to explore these concepts in terms of what they mean for us in the modern world, their practical application and how they can help us in our practice. I really hope you enjoy the episode. Please note that Katja's sound qulaity is a bit off in this one so please bear with us. Thank You  If you have any comments, questions or anything you would like to hear about related to this podcast, I'd love to hear from you.

    Episode 5 Part 2: The Eight Limbs Of Yoga With Katja Patel

    Send us Fan Mail In this second part of my lovely conversation with Katja, we continue looking at the Eight Limbs of Yoga. We continue to discuss our interpretations of what they mean and how we can  apply them to our practice and modern, everyday life. We begin our conversation with a brief look at Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, and I reference my copy which is translated and commentaried by Swami Satchidananda. Please see the link below. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Yoga-Sutras-Patanjali-Swami-Satchidananda/dp/1938477073 We then have a recap of the first 3 limbs we discussed in Part 1: Yama & Niyama, Asana, Pranayama,  and then we fturn our focus back on Pratyahara the 4th Limb.  Its a conversation full of what the key parts of a full yoga practice are and how they are still as powerful and relevant today to our holistic health, and development of our consciousness today as they have ever been. I really hope you enjoy it. The last part of our conversation will follow shortly, in part 3.
