A portion of Indra's bio from his website-As an adult I have been a seeker and devotee on the spiritual path for more than 40 years. I began studying astrology in the early 1970's, in my mid 20's, first attracted to its numerical and mystical nature. It was at this time that I also first read The Holy Science, written by Sri Yukteswar, and started learning about the Yugas. I became a disciple of the well known Indian master, Paramahansa Yogananda, and spent 20 years living in a spiritual community in California experiencing deep lessons in discipleship and Indian philosophy. In 1999 my life changed in many ways. First, I was introduced to the Enneagram and began an in-depth study of this fascinating modality. Intuitively I felt there to be a connection between astrology and the Enneagram. LEARN MORE ABOUT HIS OFFERINGS: www.indrarinzler.com

@the_yoga_smith & I loved interviewing Abi!

In this Enneagram +Yoga podcast episode, Kat and Christy interview Lisa McBryde @lamcbryde about practices that can help Enneagram types 7, 8, and 9 experience personal growth. Lisa was born and raised a country girl from Jasper, Tennessee and was the son her Dad never had. She wanted to be a nurse for as long as I could remember and followed that dream to become a RN in 1982. Her specialty was Oncology and she administered chemotherapy to cancer patients and supported them in a very difficult time. Over 30 years ago she "fell" into yoga and like nursing it also became a passionate calling. Lisa tries to teach in such a way that she pushes the student, yet encourages them to feel a connection with every breath they take. She says she is a Type A personality and owns it 100% and so the yin part of her practice was initially a challenge, but now is such a welcome release. Her first certification was with Yoga Alliance. She had initially been teaching in the fitness industry and this option was part of that discipline. She met Sara Mingus and she steered her toward 200 hour teacher training with Dolly Starvos. Dolly and Lisa really connected and her eyes and mind were opened to so many things. This discipline called yoga serves its students individually and meets them where they are. She then completed Level I training with Baron Baptiste and learned so much about sequencing and assisting. She loves assisting and believes human touch is an integral part of the practice. What started as flexibility training to balance cardio and weight training, has led to this awareness of the breath, the mind and the body, as one, and no two days are the same. Several years ago she stepped out on her own to experience something different when she discovered a love and passion for fly fishing as it takes you to beautiful, calm places but forces you to focus. She is a confident, compassionate woman, and mother, who truly loves serving others.
