Yogatrotter Academy Podcast - Yoga Class Themes and Intentions

Yoga teachers and enthusiasts, this podcast is for you! Learn stories of the gods and goddesses as they relate to yoga, practical philosophy for your everyday life, and the wisdom behind the ancient practice. Your host, Megan Mulrine, founder of Yogatrotter Academy and owner of the Niantic Yoga studio in CT, spent the last 10 years living in Japan and Bali studying yoga, meditation, and Hindu philosophy, and now she's sharing what she's learned through this podcast, her YTTs in Bali and CT, and her regular yoga classes in the seaside town of Niantic.

    Shiva Nataraja and Virabhadra - Dancer's Pose and the Warrior Poses (Yoga Class Theme)

The divine masculine Shiva is said to bring about destruction of all the is no longer serving--closing doors and opening new ones--endings and new beginnings, all in a dance of bliss.

  2. Saraswati, The Goddess of Knowledge & Creativity (Yoga Class Theme)

    2023. 11. 16.

    Saraswati, The Goddess of Knowledge & Creativity (Yoga Class Theme)

    Learn about the goddess Saraswati, the story of the universe's creation through the sound AUM (Om), and divine knowledge of our souls' origin. These stories can be found in texts such as the Brahma Purana and the Yoga Vasistha (Megan really likes Swami Venkatesananda's translation, "The Concise Yoga Vasistha"). You might invoke Saraswati in a yoga class by inviting in asanas that are free flowing for the spine, like the water element, awakening the sacral chakra energy. Join Megan in Bali this winter for a 200hr Yoga Teacher Training, beginning at the retreat center of her priestess, January 8-31st, 2024. If you're already a yoga teacher, you're invited to a 6-day Gods of Yoga Retreat in Bali to learn the stories of the gods and goddesses, practice their ceremonies, and learn to chant mantras and lead kirtan this March. All info and applications can be found at yogatrotter.com.

    Yoga "Goals" and the 8-Limbs of Yoga (Yoga Class Theme)

    In this episode, Megan explores the "goal" of yoga, and spoiler alert, it's not about what asanas you can or cannot do! In seeking the intention or the purpose of a yoga practice, she reviews the 8 Limbs of Yoga from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and what "calming the fluctuations of the mind" means for a modern lifestyle.

    The 5 Vayus: Movements of Energy (Yoga Class Theme)

    In this episode, while driving to her yoga studio, Megan discusses the 5 Vayus or "winds" of energy, and some of the yoga poses that help us experience those movements of energy. Prana Vayu : the movement of energy from outside to inside, especially as in the inhale Apana Vayu : the "waste elimination" movement of energy, and "letting go" Samana Vayu : the "digesting" and "integrating" movement of energy Udana Vayu : the "upward lifting" movement of energy, and Vyana Vayu : the "outward radiating" movement of energy

    Visualization Meditation for Creativity - Overcome Writer's Block

    Sometimes, it’s useful to boost your imagination and creative powers the old-fashioned way, through visualization. If you’re stuck with your writing, using visualization in meditation can help switch on more novel and unique lines of thinking in your brain. This meditation turns on the ajna (third eye) chakra to help you see beyond reality and into your imagination. Let your story take shape in whatever way it chooses to manifest itself.
