AUM@home : Yoga Practices + Ayurveda Wisdom with Michelle Robinson

Life is busy and committing to a specific time of day, teacher or space is tough. Attending a Yoga Teacher Training program isn't just about learning how to teach others - it's about learning how to best take care of your Self.

In this episode, Michelle highlights a few of the key aspects of the YTT she leads and how attending one can change your life for the better.

Business endeavours are tough and the business of yoga is not excluded from that. Whether you embark on a solo-preneur gig and teach at other studios or decide to open a studio of of your own, the bottom line is that if you aren’t generating the money needed to pay for your overhead, hard decisions including cut-backs and closures are really your only options. 

In this episode, Michelle shares her thoughts on Yoga as a Profession and how her teaching practice has unfolded over the years.

In this episode, Michelle does her best to further explain the concept and context of why and how yoga can and will open your heart to joy. 

Much of what yoga is is beyond the shape and form you make on your yoga mat. Getting to your yoga mat can be a challenge in and of itself. In this episode, Michelle helps you understand, through yogic wisdom, what these challenges we all face look like so that you can learn to recognize them too.

What does home design and your body have in common? They are the places you live in. In this episode, I introduce you to Yoga's sister-science, Ayurveda. Where Yoga is the science of Consciousness Awareness, Ayurveda is the science for Life and Living.

This episode of AUM@home is a bit different from previous ones - it's a guided meditation, one that I learned while living on an ashram in South India. Now's the time to carve out 15-20 mins for some YOU time. So lay back, relax and listen in.

In this episode, I share with you some of the places I've been, the teachers I've been fortunate enough to learn from, and the experiences I've had all while learning to yoga through life. 

I know, easier said than done right? When I'm in the throws of life, feeling overwhelmed and stressed out, remembering to breathe can be one of the farthest things from my mind, and yet I know how invaluable the practice is. 

In this episode I share with you the importance of breath regulation and how to engage in a simple practice that will shift your Autonomic Nervous System from scattered and stressed out, to calm, cool and collected.

Have you ever had one of those moments when the world around you just stopped its swirling and noisy-ness leaving you somewhat spellbound in the vastness of time and space? Where, for just the briefest of moments, no one is calling your name, the phone isn’t dinging, the dog’s not barking and you feel perfectly placed and balanced in your body, your mind and your heart? 

One of the biggest things I’ve learned on my yoga journey is how to tap into the quietude of these brief moments by simply standing still. And that’s what I want to share with you today. 

Join me, your host Michelle Robinson, on this audible adventure as I share with you the rich and ancient teachings and practices of all things Yoga & Ayurveda. As the name of this podcast suggests, AUM@home is an opportunity feel at home in your body, mind and heart. 

Are you ready to open your eyes to the truth in your heart?
