Did you miss us? I'm sure you did. And we also missed podcasting. We're back for another season of your favorite yoga podcast's favorite yoga podcast. In this episode, we list the things we wish we knew when we were a new yoga teacher. After teaching for more than 13 (Ben) and 15 (Rianna) years, we've come up with quite a list! In between, watch out for Rianna's perfect segue and Ben's pleas for sponsorships by a coffee brand and a microphone producer. Are you a yoga teacher? Learn from our rookie "mistakes" from way back when. How exactly way back, you have to listen to find out. Namaste!

Finally! After two long years, we are back to podcasting! Welcome back to Go With The Flow: Yoga Conversations with Ben & Rianna. In this episode, we talk about "The Journey So Far". It's been more than ten years since we both started teaching yoga and in this episode, we talk about what it's been like so far. Because the journey of a yoga teacher doesn't end at becoming one. Being one is a continuous journey. We talk about our new yoga studio, yoga being the esoteric Bratz doll of the fitness community, the opportunities, struggles, and challenges that we have encountered, and lots of insights for everyone in this journey as well as those who wish to take it.

We have a new episode! New-ish. It took us half a year to edit and upload but we have it! Seriously speaking, we really took some time out of podcasting to take care of so many things in the last few months. We weren't even able to close the last season officially! But this new lockdown is making us feel familiar things, which we talked about in this season finale. Even if it's seven months old, many things still ring true in this episode. We hope you find it as enlightening as it was therapeutic for us. The good news is, we have a new season coming up! For now, enjoy this episode and let us know what you think and how you feel! You know where to reach us. Namaste. <3

In this episode, we talk about "dharma", or our sense of duty or purpose. Like karma, people throw the word dharma around without really know what it means or how it relates to our lives. You would think you were listening to the Secretaries of Labor and Education in this episode as we explore the concept of dharma in the context of our own lived experiences and the study and career choices that we made (or were made for us). Guess who wanted to be medical doctor and who wanted to be a veterinarian? But while we both ended up teaching yoga, we come from different backgrounds that are shaped by the choices that we made and how we perceived our dharma in life. If, after listening to this episode, you realize that your dharma involves sharing the practice of yoga, check out www.innerpowervinyasa.com/training and consider taking our 200H Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training.

In this episode, we debunk all the misconceptions of Karma and shed light into how the Yoga philosophy sees it. Learn about it's context as we talk about how old yogic texts really define what this universal concept means. It might surprise some of you! We really enjoyed this conversation. Give it a listen!

In light of recent events, we found it fitting to publish this recording  as an episode of our podcast so that it may reach more yogis out there. On June 20,2020, in celebration of the International Day of Yoga, we delivered a talk on "Yoga as Freedom". In yoga practice, much has been said about the myth of the peaceful warrior—practitioners waging a silent war within, using asana, pranayama, and meditation to conquer whatever inner demons we have. But if the universe within us is the same universe within others, then it must be equally important to fight for the peace of others. Their peace is also ours. Find out how to harness the transformative energy of yoga and channel it towards a social manifestation of the great change that we can create for ourselves.

The uncertainty in the midst of this pandemic is scary and confusing for us yoga teachers. We totally understand how you feel and we are here for you. On April 25 and May 6, we did free webinars on navigating this digital shift and understanding our roles as teachers in this crisis. We shared our experience on how we've been handling the situation ourselves and some tips and advice on how to hold virtual space for others. We thank our fellow yoga teachers who participated for allowing us to record the webinar audio so that we can upload and publish it as a podcast episode. Here it is! Have a listen. 

We're back! In this episode, we discuss Yoga in the Time of Corona and how our practice has come forth in this strange time in our lives. Listen to our conversation about how the teachings of Yoga apply in the way we deal with this pandemic, and the people around us.
