Clarifying Non-Attachment and Spiritual Bypass with Kaya Mindlin (Rerelease‪)‬ The Wild and Wise

    • Spirituality

ep. #33 
If you've dipped your toe in the waters of yogic practice or philosophy, and you have if you've ever even googled "mindfulness", this conversation will deepen and clarify some of the common mistranslations and misunderstandings of how to live our lives while also walking a spiritual path. We especially explore the ways being a parent can often feel "in the way" of our spiritual goals and practices. The difficult distance between our ideals and reality. Kaya speaks so beautifully to the gift we can give ourselves and our children when we practice and live our spiritual journey as family. 
In this episode, I share about my own personal upbringing, raised in a yogic intentional community. Kaya also has a deep and meaningful relationship with this community, and we both hold so much love and respect for the teachings, the people and the beauty that is present there. While I do speak to some of my personal experiences and interpretations, I am sure they were unique to my own experience, my own family system and the projecting we as humans do onto others. So I ask you to hold what you hear with the awareness of both being true: reality and projection. 
Things we touch on: 
The misconceptions of practicing non-attachment 
The absolute and the relative realities we exist in 
Spiritual bypass 
Splitting of life into spiritual life and the rest 
The four stages of life 
How not to sacrifice your spiritual life 
Accepting or rejecting mental/emotional reactions 
We can model our humanity for our kids 
What family spiritual practice can look like 
Clarifying karma yoga and selfless service 
I do my work so you can do yours 
Where to start
