Sarah Scharf is the author of “Holding Space,” which takes us through a step-by-step investigation into how the words, tone, volume, and intention of our speech meld together to create communication.

She originally wrote the book for yoga teachers, but anyone can benefit from learning how to communicate better, use their voice, and find their breath. Holding space for yourself as a teacher is important, because you need to have confidence that what you are teaching holds value, and today, you’re going to get a crash course.

All healthy relationships depend on communication and mutual respect.

During this pandemic, people are likely spending more time with their partners than ever, and we all hear about the stress this can cause—especially if the relationship is not rooted in respect. You need to hold the bar high for what you expect to give and receive out of a relationship.

Ellen Boeder and Jayson Gaddis are a married couple, both psychotherapists, and they practice LYT™ Daily! Jayson is the founder of The Relationship School, as well as the host of The Relationship School Podcast, and he has a lot to say about becoming a good partner.

Ellen Boeder, MA, LPC is a psychotherapist and coach for couples in Boulder, Colorado, who has been interested in how relationships actually work for as long as she can remember. Studying with innovative researchers and cutting edge practitioners in the field of psychology, relationships, and yoga for over 20 years has helped her integrate her approach to working with people in a sensitive, straightforward, deeply informed and embodied way. The most high-level training she does is usually at home with her husband and two young children, as she finds her way through the real, raw, and beautiful experience of being deeply intertwined with others. Ellen is also a faculty member for The Relationship School, a long time yoga practitioner, and writes a blog that incorporates her studies in psychology with her life experience as a mother, called Rearranged by Motherhood.

We talk about their relationship, Jayson’s development of a relationship school, and being trained as a trauma-informed yoga practitioner. We also dive into what happens when one person in a relationship starts changing, and the other person gets left behind.

Critical thinking is super important in the world we live in today. It is a skill that we must master if we want to thrive. So how can we all be more critical thinkers in our day to day lives?

Critical thinking means thinking carefully about something without letting emotions or opinions affect you. And this is a very hard thing to do! You really have to challenge yourself to look at all sides of something, instead of searching out confirmation for what you already believe. Regardless of how good you are at it now, it is something that you can improve upon, and I believe it is vital for the future of our world.
