The Uplifted Yoga Podcast

A lot of us struggle with shame, self-sabotage, and setting boundaries. I know I used to! Andrea Owen, author and life coach, is here to tell you the hard truth. That shame is inevitable in life and it's not going away. BUT, self-compassion, empathy, and mindfulness are key components of building shame resilience. We also talk about how personal growth ebbs and flows and setting boundaries is essential. Yes it can be challenging, but it is important to prioritize your own needs and well-being. Listen in as Andrea explains:   🔹Shame as a normal and inevitable part of life, rather than something to be overcome. 🔹The connection between shame and behaviors such as people-pleasing and perfectionism. 🔹Strategies for building shame resilience, including self-compassion, empathy, and speaking shame.   🪷 It’s the last day to sign up for the Abundance Challenge => https://www.brettlarkin.com/abundancechallenge/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_term=1&utm_content=1&utm_campaign=abundancechallengeny21   🎁 Get my FREE $67 Somatic Self Healing Workshop => https://www.brettlarkin.com/ffy?utm_medium=social&utm_source=podcast&utm_campaign=ffy  GUEST EXPERT: Andrea Owen | https://andreaowen.com/ Keynote Speaker.

Dissect the stages of Yoga Nidra with me and my friend, Caley Alyssa. Together, we’ll dive into the emerging science behind deep yogic sleep. We’ll also provide tons of practical tips (hello, heated blanket!) as two busy moms and yoga teachers who practice Yoga Nidra regularly. Discover:  🔹 Misconceptions about the different brainwave states experienced during Yoga Nidra and how it’s NOT the equivalent of 2 -4 hours of sleep. 🔹 How Yoga Nidra works with the Koshas and affects melatonin production in your body.  🔹 The importance of setting an intention or sankalpa and how it can be used to address limiting beliefs. 🔹 The distinct structure and phases that culminate to create a Yoga Nidra practice.  We also cover – how long is “enough,” whether to practice in bed or on the floor, and all our hacks for propage. You’ll be excited to rest after this conversation.    Make your yoga practice 2x more potent in 1/2 the time with my Free Yoga Transformational Portal ✨   Join the Uplifted Membership: https://www.brettlarkin.com/uplifted/    GUEST EXPERT: Caley Alyssa | https://www.caleyalyssa.com/  Caley Alyssa is an Embodiment Coach, Founder of the Caley Alyssa App (Yoga, Yoga Nidra, meditation & seasonal resets) and creator of Sleep Academy, a Yoga Nidra Training program for hacking your habits and awakening your inner genius.
