Four Podcasts I’m Listening To Now

Podcasts are my new favorite commuting soundtrack.  I’ve recently started making an effort to get more out of my driving time other than phone taps and celebrity gossip.  Sure sometimes you want to roll the windows down and blast some good ol’ fashion tunes, but other times why not gain some knowledge while on the road?

I simply just downloaded the podcast app on my i-phone and had thousands at my fingertips.  I guess I should give Andy some credit here.  He got me started when he told me about Mark Sisson’s Primal Blue Print podcast.  From there I realized that so many of my favorite knowledgeable, fun people have podcasts out there where they share their wisdom with the pod-o-sphere.

Here are my favorites:

The nerves are there to stay. Of course this may be different for different people but for me, I still get a little nervous every single time I teach.  A good nervous though.  That butterflies in my stomach, stepping out of my comfort zone kind of nervous.  I’m going to go out on a limb and say it’s good to be a little scared.  It keeps me on my toes, my teaching fresh, and always striving to be better.

Wanderlust Stratton – Fresh Air & Wide Open Space

Fresh mountain air, wide open spaces,  inspiring teachers, beautiful souls…and the list goes on.  Wanderlust was everything I thought it would be and more.  I spent five days in the Green Mountain State practicing yoga, learning from wise and talented teachers, meeting new people, listening to feel good music, and taking yoga selfies at the summit of Stratton Mountain (obviously a must).

Here is a little re-cap so you all can get a mini dose of what this awesome festival is like.

I drove up by myself.  It’s funny I was a little nervous at first. I hadn’t done a solo road trip in quite some time (or maybe ever now that I think about it).

As soon as I arrived I was greeted with this.  I knew I was about to have quite the unforgettable weekend.
