If you're a student of yoga (which, really, everyone is regardless of the number of years you've been practicing and or teaching), you would have heard of the Yamas and Niyamas.

Our discussion on the Yamas and Niyamas will be in two parts (for each). There will be an academic discussion were we talk about the over-arching concepts. The purpose of this is to touch base on the intention of the subject and help deepen our understanding of it, as academic discussions go. It's meant to tease apart the subject and look at it from different angles, different points-of-view.

The second part is implementation. We will go through different ways of practicing the Yamas and Niyamas in real-world, experience-based examples...mostly from my own life. The purpose of this is to ground the concepts in real world situations and share with you how I used them.

When we go through the different Yamas and Niyamas in the next few weeks and there will be content for different audiences - blogs for readers, podcasts for listeners and to cap off this series, we will have a short course added to the Course Room.

So, be here next week and we will start with Ahimsa.

This is the business end of the series.  We talk about some mindsets that limit or even prevent us from tapping into the benefits of meditation.  As always, enjoy your listening and if you have any questions, reach out on our website: aileendavid.com

Hello again!  Here's Part 1 of On Deconstructing & Demystifying Meditation.  We recap the meditation proper and, well, start talking about it!

If you want to do JUST the meditation, last week's episode has it.

Enjoy!  Part 2 to follow next week!

Hello everyone!  Here's an overdue podcast on Meditation.  This is the first of a three part series that will help you pare-back the mystique of meditation to make it accessible and practical for your everyday life.

This podcast concentrates on the meditation itself, then we deconstruct and demystify it in the next two episodes.

Enjoy the meditation!

We're finishing up with number 8. Maintaining Your Own Home Practice and 9. It's a Two-way Street.  Find out what these are and round up this topic with a quick recap of all the points.  Enjoy!

Half way through our topic, we talk these two points:

Enjoy!

Here's part 2 of this topic, we'll talk about:

As students, many of us come into yoga through the physical aspect – as an exercise or weight loss program. Some come to de-stress and some don’t even know why they are drawn to yoga.

Whatever your initial reasons are, I hope this topic helps in your journey.

The entire topic is broken up in 4 episodes.  To start, we'll talk about:

We're finishing up with Mindset 9 that talks about our relationship with yoga with respect to inviting others, and Mindset 10 which talks about a "dedicated" yoga practice.
