The Jai Dev Show

Here's what happens when two world-renowned yoga instructors get together to talk shop. Jai Dev chats with Ashleigh Sergeant in this final "Live from Envision Festival" episode. Ashleigh is the Director of Yoga & Movement at Envision, head of yoga content at Gaia.com and, and a yoga instructor who now calls Costa Rica home.

The conversation winds its way around the world of yoga, like a vine, getting into the cracks and crevices, finding openings for expansion as well as barriers to growth. There's the cacophony of nature, the simplicity of the profound, staying centered amidst chaos, narcissism, discipline, dogma, joy, and what we see when we point at the moon. It's just your average everyday jungle meditation on what it means to seek a teacher, to be a teacher, and to not need a teacher. It might be best if you just listen.

In the next installment of our "Live at Envision " series, meet one of the co-creators of the event, (and one of the most fun and interesting people I had the pleasure of spending time with that whole week), Sarah Wu. If you were to call Sarah an herbalist you wouldn't be wrong. However, as you'll hear in this episode, it goes much deeper than that! Even if you wouldn't consider yourself a plant-lover per se, listening to Sarah discuss her ever-evolving relationship with the plant world will at least have you looking at plant life through a new lens. Defining herbalism as an art, science, craft and practice, Sarah brings plants into deep focus and encourages viewing the plants around you in ways you might not have considered. It's not only how you experience a plant, but how does a plant experience you? What kind of dialogue takes place and what kind of symbiotic relationship is forged between humans and plants? This podcast is perfect for the "herb nerds" out there, and for anyone else who wants in on the, "What's your favorite herb?" conversation. Enjoy the episode! Check out the month long Permaculture Design Certification training Sarah and her colleagues are doing this June!

This conversation confirmed to me what I had already suspected: Trevor Hall is a genuinely beautiful brother with a big heart and a fellow journeyer on the path. Over the last many years his career as an artist, musician, and songwriter has soared to great success with huge streaming numbers and sold-out tours. In this episode, we get to hear the story behind it all...and an incredible story it is!

From growing up on the coastal shores of South Carolina, to opening a tour for the legendary Reggae band, Steel Pulse (at the age of 17!), to repeatedly traveling to India and immersing himself in her wondrous mysticism, I can say that I enjoyed every moment of this episode. It's definitely one of my favorites.
