  • Ep. 84 - With Mike Cazayoux, Shedding Our Skin

    Whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, or just someone looking to feel more grounded and present in your life, I encourage you to explore the benefits of mindfulness.  One person who has been a great example of this is my guest this week Michael Cazayoux, a former CrossFit Games champion and founder of Brute Strength.

    In this episode, Michael has talks openly about his struggles with addiction and how mindfulness practices like meditation and journaling have helped him stay sober and develop greater self-awareness. He's also shared how mindfulness has benefited his performance as an athlete and coach, helping him focus on the present moment and make better decisions.

    If you're new to mindfulness or looking to deepen your practice, some tips that Michael has recommended include:

    • Starting small: don't feel like you have to meditate for an hour right away. Even a few minutes of focused breathing or reflection can make a difference.
    • Consistency: try to make mindfulness a daily habit, ideally at the same time and in the same place if possible.
    • Experimenting: there are many different mindfulness practices out there, from yoga to guided meditations to journaling prompts. Don't be afraid to try different approaches and see what works best for you.

    And if you're looking for inspiration, check out Michael Cazayoux's story and the resources he's shared on his website, social media or his email!

  • Ep. 82 - The Power of Our Words

    Send us Fan Mail

    Words are powerful. They can build us up or tear us down, create connection or destroy it. In yoga philosophy, the concept of 'ahimsa' or non-harming reminds us to choose our words wisely and speak with kindness and compassion. When we practice ahimsa, we not only improve our own mental wellbeing, but also positively impact the lives of those around us.

    Think about the words you use in your daily interactions with others. Are they uplifting or critical? Do they promote understanding or create conflict? Remember, the words you speak have the power to shape your life and relationships. Choose them wisely and practice ahimsa both on and off the mat.
