In our conversation, we discuss a mix of approachable and more esoteric practices we’ve explored over the years. Topics include Human Design, Face Yoga, darkness meditation practices, and even Country Music. You might come away with a new modality to try—or the confidence to discover your own.

Journey of the Modern SoulJMS #12 - Carrie Hopperstad and her Teacher Training experience with Baptiste YogaToday on JMY, Carrie is talking with me about her experiences at with her Baptiste yoga trainings. Yoga teacher trainings can be transformative experiences, but they can also put people in dangerous positions, with pressure to not question the process. There is an unfortunate potential for predatory behavior in situations like this. The more aware we are, the more we can prevent it.
