Yoga instructor Carin thinks we all have talent.
In this 15 minutes-plus talk with Carin Trainer, yoga teacher and naturopath with office on Cape Cod, (see one of links below) I capture the essence of this great instructor and gentle human who enjoys all her students and thinks that we are not clumsy or injured, but seeking, beautiful and improving. I do not think this is incidental that I ran into her class some years ago while vacationing on Cape, but with the blossoming of remote yoga options I can continue practicing with Carin from wherever I am located, granted that I have proper internet access and some decent viewing device, at least iPad. I learnt that for yoga-remote one needs good size computer or laptop screen and comfortable space for mat as yoga poses require a bit of real estate around you. The remote yoga workshops gave me an idea that I need my prompts: bolster cannot be easily replaced by pillow, I need belt and yoga blocks for the best possible experience of that practice.
Up close and personal with Dr. Brian Williams
2020 has been challenging not only due to pandemic, but also events of social activism and unrest related to aftermath of death of George Floyd, who lost his life in hands on police. While Mr. Floyd was suffocated with the knee in hands of those who should protect us, this event brought to the surface the fact that we are out of collective breath and can watch no more how inequalities affect all of us in negative way and prevent us from moving forward with healthy and balanced society, especially in time of pandemic, where so many goals of humanity should be (at least in theory) aligned in fight with the deadly virus. If that was only that one dimensional and easy. I speak with Dr. Williams about his career, what sparked his activism, road that lies ahead to heal us as a society, but also hard work that needs to be done so we all have voice in the system.
Libby Lykins, PA talks about Magnificent Metamorphosis.
I met Libby through our mutual friend Steve Lyons, the Cape Cod artist that I interviewed for these pages in spring. Libby is a woman who wears many hats - she is a practicing clinician, editor, author and transformation enthusiast who wants to reach broader audience with her Magnificent Metamorphosis Magazine, see link to blog I wrote about it 2 weeks ago. I sat down to talk to Libby about her passion in this 18 minute video, hope you enjoy.
Do you think of change, balance or transformation? Do you need minute for yourself, or perhaps you have strength to help and listen to others? Perhaps you are ready for Metamorphosis..
Follow the journey.
