Elephant Journal: Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis

Latest Episodes:

60: Yoga has been Zuckerberg'd. Jan 17, 2020

Show notes

The Future of Yoga…or Lack Thereof. Instagram wholly has captured the attention and focus of every young yoga teacher—that's where they blog, that's where they post photos, that's where they post captions. All of the great yoga teachers that are retiring now or in 10 years are basically unknown. In one generation, we have lost decades and decades of learning and study. Podcast produced by: Vanessa Boehm; Music by Adam Agee, recorded live at Walk the Talk Show events.

58: How to make your New Year's Resolutions work. It isn't Willpower. Jan 03, 2020

Show notes

Cheerful New Year from Waylon Lewis! In this episode, Waylon discusses what New Year's Resolutions often lack. Willpower breaks, falters in the warm trance of the present moment "maybe I'll just eat that entire cake." Motivation comes from empathy, from appreciation, and from the feeling that we can be of benefit. "What is one thing I feel compassion about?" Ask yourself, "What is one thing I'm grateful for?" Podcast produced by: Vanessa Boehm; Music by Adam Agee, recorded live at Walk the Talk Show events.

56: Let's talk about "Viral." Dec 20, 2019

Show notes

Everything we love is getting gutted because we are dependent on viral. We can't tackle climate change if we don't believe in it. We can't defend democracy if we don't value it. We can't disagree respectfully if we can't identify basic facts. We can't fight prejudice if hate is more popular than love. We have to talk about the boring—but beautiful and wonderful things—that aren't getting talked about on Instagram.

54: F**k Convenience. Caring makes our Holidays magical. Dec 06, 2019

Show notes

How can we make Holidays special again? The solution is not convenient—it's slowing down, being present, shopping locally from local crafts people. There's a six-foot-five 85-year-old man who is madly in love with wood, and makes bowls and Christmas ornaments. He inspires me. I can't tell you when, if ever, Jeff Bezos inspired me.
