All Mats Taken | A Yoga Teachers Podcast

Is setting New Year's resolutions actually worth it, or are we setting ourselves up for inevitable failure? In this episode, I dig into the research on New Year's goal-setting and share what actually works (and what doesn't). Spoiler: resolutions DO work (they're 10x more effective than having no resolution at all) but only if you set them up right. I break down the science behind why most resolutions fail by February, the psychological mechanisms that make fresh starts powerful, and the specific strategies research shows will help you actually achieve your goals. Whether you're planning to grow your yoga business or setting personal development for 2026, this episode will help you set goals that stick.

Ready to set goals that actually stick? Grab your notebook and start reframing your 2026 intentions using the strategies from this episode. And if you found this helpful, share it with a yoga teacher friend who needs to hear this too.

Referenced Paper:

*Ok so a few corrections from the episode. The paper I was referencing was the Framingham Heart Study by Christakis & Fowler. It ran from 1983 to 2003 and followed 4739 individuals. They found that happiness clusters in networks and that the association between one person's happiness and others' happiness reaches up to three degrees of separation (friends, friends-of-friends, and friends-of-friends-of-friends). They also report concrete effect sizes (e.g., a nearby friend becoming happy increased a person's probability of being happy by ~25%), and that the effect decays with distance and time.

Most of us learned that the chakras are an ancient yogic system, but what if that story isn't quite true?

In this episode, I take you down the rabbit hole that completely changed how I understand chakras. What started as simple class planning for my yin yoga series turned into a deep dive into the forgotten history of the modern Western chakra system.

We'll trace their journey from early Tantric philosophy to Theosophy, Carl Jung, and the New Age movement. You'll learn how a mix of Western psychology, color theory, and mysticism transformed a centuries-old meditation map into today's popular seven-chakra rainbow model.

Together, we'll explore:

• Why the modern chakra system isn't as ancient as it seems
• How Western thinkers and energy-healing culture shaped its evolution
• What Sanskrit scholars reveal about the original Tantric practices
• How source amnesia changed modern yoga—and what we can do to reconnect

This episode is perfect for yoga teachers, philosophy students, really anyone who's ever felt like the chakra system didn't quite add up. Get ready because this conversation will change how you see yoga history forever.

Does the thought of selling make you feel a bit uncomfortable? Today's guest will flip the way you think about sales and selling as a yoga teacher on its head and make you excited to go out there and start practicing how to sell. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• Sales as a spiritual practice
• Why it's essential and not at all sleezy
• Getting comfortable with selling your services
• The benefits of collaborations
• We even go through a sample sales script!

At the end of this episode, we were talking about how we could have a whole conversation all about collaborations for yoga teachers, SO WE DID! Brytta invited me onto her new podcast, Yoga Entrepreneurship School, and we decided to release them together for a fun collab. After listening to this episode (it makes sense with the progression of our conversation), head to her podcast and listen to our chat too :).

How can we honor our lineage, share yoga's philosophical roots, and let our personality shine? In this episode with Rachel Scott, we discuss how to share the wisdom passed down through generations, weave philosophy into your classes, what to do if your lineage feels tainted by scandals or cultish behaviour when you know the deeper teachings are healing and how to recognize cult-like behaviour if you're ever faced with it.
