Sober Yoga Girl

On this episode of Sober Yoga Girl Podcast I had my YTT student, Ali, as a guest on the podcast!

In this episode he shares his journey with sobriety, as well as his experience in the Yoga Teacher Training.

In today's episode I share a short story on something I experienced this past week - an anxious thought spiral around something very silly in hindsight!

I speak about how I use my knowledge of yoga philosophy and the five vrittis (thought spirals), and the strategies of HALT, plus communication skills with my friend, to work through my thoughts!

In this episode I speak about the Yoga Sutra Study which started at the end of March. You can check out the program here! https://www.themindfullifepractice.com/yoga-sutra-study

On this episode I had my friend Megan Wilcox on the show! Megan from Sobah Sistahs is absolutely incredible. She came to be a guest in the Sober Girls Club this week, and shared her story about going alcohol free, and creating the Sobah Sistahs community. Megan has hosted two retreats in Bali as well as in other locations around the world and I have had the pleasure of teaching yoga on both of her Bali retreats and look forward to doing it again in 2025!

In this amazing episode of the podcast I had my Yoga Philosophy Teacher, Anvita, on the podcast! Anvita was raised in Mumbai and grew up in a yoga institution led by her grandfather and father. She has a big YouTube following where I first encountered her work! In this episode we speak about some of the biggest misunderstandings I had about yoga, such as using the word "yogi", the word "namaste", "pratyahara" time - and more! Anvita teaches about how we can embody yoga and not just practice it on the mat.  You can learn more about Anvita's offerings here. https://www.yogicgurukul.com/
