March 11, 2021 Habits That Serve Us #075
We can create good habits but also notice bad habits. The hard part is taking the time to notice. After taking my first in studio yoga class this week in over a year. I realized all the habits I used to have walking into a class a decade ago verses the ones I’ve developed today, as an instructor. Remembering why I showed up to the class and on my mat in the first place verses comparing myself to others. We all have habits both good and bad. Today we unfold a few of my own; pulling back the layers and finding the root of those habits. Is it serving me or is it just out of habit??

March 04, 2021 The Benefits of Planning - #073
This episode is all about making our schedule, and why it's important, in order to achieve our goals. After flying for the first time in a year I realized how much I was able to accomplish without the distractions of the inter-webs, mostly Social Media.
My main focus; what are our essentials? For me a Non negotiable is getting 7-8 hours of sleep daily. Meaning I go to be an hour early and I get up an hour earlier to accomplish things in the morning before i get "sucked into my day" Asking ourselves, What is serving you and what is not? I Meditate daily, mostly mid day when I’m starting to get distracted or simply take my dog for a walk. Make a weekly to do list; schedule everything on google calendars. Even breaks, showers and my daily self care.
In order to accomplish all my lists, I do my most important tasks first. By clearing off my desk, I cant get anything done in a clutter-free space. Sometimes this includes my phone. Any call I’m on, work, zoom, interview… my devices are on airplane mode. Try to focus on one thing at a time, instead of having 20 tabs open or half completed tasks.
Setting up up a system and focusing on planing out my week sets me up for success. And Sometime saying no, is all the self care we need. Knowing we can do anything, but we can't do everything!

February 25, 2021 What Makes You Unique? #071
This subject has been coming up quite a bit. When I was in theatre and starting out, I was often posed the questions, "What's your type? What makes you Unique?" Placing me in a box and then frantically searching for another box that made me appear flashier than others in the same category. I often notice we feel this pressure when introducing ourselves to others to lead with our name and immediately follow with our occupation. Our occupation shouldn't define who we are, it's just something we do, and hopefully do well. My episode intro poses the question, "Instead of living to work, let's work to live", and I mean just that. Work is not life, we work so hard to succeed at our "jobs" but my friends there is so much more to life than our work. Uniqueness is a thing we should hang onto, though it takes time to reflect on that and discover the words that describe what that uniqueness is. Today I break down a few exercises for ways to discover those words, in finding our strengths, sharing them, and owning them. I also walk us through a positive mantra that'll spark that energy in you for the rest of your week.
To add this week I was featured on Lindsay Garcia's podcast, Failing Awesomely! Check out my Episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/31-the-luxury-of-self-care-with-ahnastasia-albert/id1483970993?i=1000510425082

February 11, 2021 Collaboration in Exponential Growth #067 - Featuring Jessica Rodriguez
Jessica Rodriguez is the new owner of West End Yoga Studio here in Lancaster Pennsylvania. About 8 years ago Jessica started her yoga practice and quickly fell in love with West End yoga studio and enrolled in their yoga sanctuary school teacher training. When she saw the yoga studio was going to close due to covid-19 she knew that she could jump in with her skills to keep the studio open for our community. Jessica lives in Lancaster Pennsylvania with her husband and two sons who are ages 5 and 14. In addition Jessica is the Healthy Living Director of the YMCA.
When you belong to a yoga community even if you don't grow super close with those you practice with you still feel a connection with your teachers and your other classmates This helps combat depression and feelings of loneliness. Usually the last things on our mind right now are our physical fitness and that can also lead to a lot of pressure and self-judgment. with yoga we become more aware of our bodies as they are and become more in tune with our bodies feel and the changes that occur in them.
