Are You Being Present?

Episode 20 - Yoga for Presence Feat. Jorge Rivera


Listen Later

Guest host Jorge Rivera joins Paul Kerzner for episode 20 of the "Are You Being Present?" podcast series.  The title and topic of this podcast is "Yoga for Presence" and was selected because yoga is an amazing "Presence Tool" that is popular and accessible for everyone.  

Jorge is a yoga instructor and was asked to join the podcast because of the emphasis he places on teaching mindfulness and presence with his students.  When yoga is practiced with the proper intention, and taught by a skilled instructor, it has the ability to bring peace and stillness to the mind, body and spirit.

During the podcast Jorge talks about his background and how he was introduced to yoga.  After experiencing a few injuries, and going through a significant life transition, he was looking for some direction and relief.  His practice allowed him to see first hand how powerful yoga is by helping to heal his body.  This profound experience was the motivation and inspiration he needed to become a yoga instructor.  

Later in the episode Paul and Jorge discuss presence and how yoga helps people shift away from thoughts of the past and worries of the future.  Anyone who has attended a yoga classes understands that it is a subjective practice with each person having a unique experience.  The goal is to stay present by focusing on the breath, stretches and controlled movements.

We thank Jorge for joining us and recommend his services to anyone interested in attending a powerfully present yoga class.  If you're interested in learning more about Jorge Rivera please contact him on Facebook: [Link]
