Through this episode Alan and Bre start to give you a flavor of what future episodes will be like by discussing many aspects of their lives and the impact yoga has had on them. While yoga and meditation is a major part of their lives, it is not their whole life. Even though there will be discussions around yoga and applying many of the yogic philosophies to life, the topics will vary and some episodes won’t even mention yoga. This is about life.
First and foremost joining Bre as she walks us through a quick breathing exercise to bring us back to the present, where life actually happens. Then quickly jumping into the impact 2020 and the need to evolve. They talk about changes each have made in their offerings. They share similar feelings of discontent with how many yogis have allowed the divisiveness of politics to creep into the mix creating yet another barrier or turnoff for many. Bre and Alan both share the same goal of being able to provide yoga for EVERYONE because of how much yoga has helped them realize what is actually important in life. They give you insight into what led them to start teaching yoga, share their stories on their first yoga experiences, and the snowball effect that first step had on their corporate careers, life choices and future relationships.
As they navigate through their conversation they tell the story of how they met, being a good human and taking care of yourself and others. So why The Hunter and The Hippie? Well that is the paradox, two things that many believe don’t go together, actually belong. That life and labels don’t have to be an “either or”, it can be a both. And, while Alan and Bre might have a little bit of Hunter and a little bit of Hippie in each of them, ultimately they feel they aren't defined by those things. Bre shares her insight on her blog post “I am NOT a yogi.” Before ending, Alan walks you through a discussion about journaling and its importance.
