Personalizing Yoga for Your Busy Schedule with Brett Larkin of Uplifted Yoga Dec 22, 2023

Show notes

Brett Larkin, Founder and CEO of Uplifted Yoga, discovered gaps in how modern yoga is taught today. It often doesn’t take into account our busy lives or even our unique anatomies.

In her effort to help people who don’t believe that yoga is for them for one reason or another, she’s ready to share what she’s learned about yoga history in her latest book, Yoga Life: Habits, Poses, and Breathwork to Channel Joy Amidst the Chaos.

In this episode of Redefining Movement, Brett takes us on a quick tour of how modern yoga came to be and why it isn’t always about following poses strictly. In fact, she encourages you to explore and find what truly works for you and your body.

In this episode, you’ll learn the following:

There’s no right or wrong way to practice yoga. It’s rooted in personalizing the practice for your specific needs.
Yoga is a physical practice and also a mindset you inhabit.
You don’t need a long yoga session to experience its benefits if you understand what your body needs at the moment.

Living & Aging Brightly as a Vegan with Author and Founder & Director of Main Street Vegan Academy, Victoria Moran Dec 08, 2023

Show notes

Victoria Moran, Author and Founder & Director of Main Street Vegan Academy, is evidence that the practices of yoga and veganism sustain the light inside you. At the age of 73, she has more energy than most of her generation (and younger generations as well), which is why she’s advocated for both practices since the 70s.

She became a yogi and vegan when those words weren’t commonly used and has lived through many changes since then.

In this episode of Redefining Movement, Victoria talks about veganism and yoga, why you might want to consider it, and how she’s handled situations with people who remain skeptical about them.

You will learn the following:

The key to aging is caring not just for your physical health but also for your attitude and mental health.
Becoming vegan is easier when you have a support system.
Everyone believes in different things, so it’s important to practice empathy.

Understanding the Benefits of Vibroacoustic Therapy with inHarmony Interactive President and Co-Founder, Craig Goldberg Nov 24, 2023

Show notes

Craig Goldberg, President and Co-founder of inHarmony Interactive, is guiding stressed people—which, let’s face it, is almost everyone—in how to truly relax using carefully curated sounds. He knows it works because he was his first patient. An early career working three jobs and going out nightly spread him thin to the point of burn out.

Through his work selling essential oils to yoga retreats, he discovered the relaxing effects of vibroacoustic therapy. Vibroacoustic therapy is an emerging body of research utilizing the low frequency vibrations from music to release the tensions in your body and unlock a new realm of relaxation.

On this episode of Redefining Movement, Craig discusses how he promotes vibroacoustic therapy through inHarmony, the company he co-founded, the science behind how it works, and why you need to make rest and relaxation a priority in your life.

In this episode, you will learn the following:

Staying in fight or flight mode too long makes you more susceptible to disease.
Awareness of your surroundings is key to living a happy and healthy life.
At certain frequencies, music and sounds can put you in an immensely relaxed state.
