286 | Go Find Your Group Sep 07, 2020

Show notes

While we’re all more isolated by necessity, there are so many benefits to finding a group for self-improvement. It’s more important than ever to break out of our shells.

When we’re by ourselves, we can grow unaware of our bad habits because they become automatic, but once we’ve put ourselves in a group where those bad habits are not accepted, or the good habits we aren’t doing for ourselves are the norm, it puts us in stark contrast and motivates us to make changes.

283 | Know Your Wiring Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

We are all wired a certain way, and it is so important to know who we are at our essence.

That doesn’t mean we can’t rewire ourselves and shift some things, but we have some circuitry that’s pre-programmed into our nature and it’s important to recognize and celebrate that. Because when we try to be someone who we are not, it can be exhausting — and it usually ends in headaches or tears. Know yourself, embrace yourself, and lean into it.

282 | The Egoscue Method & The Importance of Posture | with Greg Heinemann Aug 28, 2020

Show notes

Greg Heinemann is an Egoscue trainer and clinic owner, and he’s like a brother from another mother to me.

What is the Egoscue method? Named after its founder, Pete Egoscue, who set out on a journey to figure out how to correct his posture after dealing with some intensely painful recovery after being shot during the Vietnam war. Greg got interested in the field after his own struggles with recovery. He shares the process of becoming an Egoscue trainer, how the method works, the importance of posture awareness, and his own movement practice.

280 | Finding the Curl of the Wave Aug 24, 2020

Show notes

The surfer’s motto is to always be in the curl of the wave—to find that curl and ride it. When you find that sweet spot, you can make your way safely and smoothly to shore. Isn’t that a great metaphor for life?

Now we’re in a period of time where it feels as though we’re thrashing against the waves. We’re not finding that energetic spot that will allow us to balance and ride the wave calmly. So when you’re learning how to surf, in a metaphorical sense, there are some tips you can apply in your lives to help.

279 | The Ethics of Oneness | with Jeremy Engles Aug 21, 2020

Show notes

Jeremy Engles is a professor at Penn State and the co-owner of Yoga Lab in State College, Pennsylvania. The Yoga Lab is known as a “guru free zone” where experimentation is embraced and no one tries to hold power over anyone else. We discuss some of the myths of yoga, such as the disconnect between physical movement and spirituality, respecting where yoga came from while continuing to adapt it, how yoga can become more inclusive, and the meaning of oneness.
