When you practice yoga you focus on the here and now. Yoga has only brought positive changes within my life, if you are thinking about giving yoga a try GO FOR IT!

In this video, How yoga changed my life! I’m opening up about my personal yoga journey – the highs, the lows, and everything in between.

Join me as I share why I chose yoga over the gym, and how a studio just two minutes from my house became my sanctuary for growth and healing. I dive into my initial hesitations, fears about not being ‘good enough’ for yoga, and how I overcame these to embrace the practice fully.
Hear about my first vinyasa class, the challenges I faced, and how it sparked a profound love for yoga despite the initial struggles. As someone who deals with anxiety and depression, I’ll share how yoga has become an essential tool for managing my mental well being, teaching me invaluable breathing techniques and mindfulness. Learn how yoga helped boost my self-esteem, transitioning me from feeling intimidated in the back row to confidently taking my place in the front. I talk about learning to accept imperfection, the humility in starting as a beginner, and how this journey has enriched my life beyond the mat. It’s not just about the physical benefits; it’s a holistic approach to wellness, combining physical, mental, and spiritual growth.

Yoga, in its original form, was created as a science for liberation. In modern times, it is used by many for improving physical and mental health, helping us become more productive at work, more caring in relationships, and more responsible contributors to society and inhabitants of this planet. If yoga does accomplish all that—and many practitioners have experienced this to be true in their own lives—how exactly does yoga do it? How does yoga work?

On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru, talks to Eddie Stern, a yoga teacher, author, and lecturer based in Brooklyn, New York. He is known for his multidisciplinary approach to furthering education and access to yoga, as well as his teaching expertise in Ashtanga Yoga. He most recently created The Breathing App, which guides the user in a paced breathing exercise that balances the nervous system, improves sleep, and reduces stress and anxiety. His book, One Simple Thing: A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How It Can Transform Your Life was just released.

In this episode, Dhru and Eddie talk about what makes yoga such an effective practice from a neurophysiological perspective, and how transcendence is wired into our biology. They talk about the mechanics beneath the surface of our bodies and how we can consciously use yogic practices to direct and change our lives in positive ways. They also discuss how what we do—from postures to meditation, from breathing techniques to chanting and to ethical practices—affects who we become, and how a steady routine of activities and attitudes can transform our bodies, our brain functions, our emotions, and our experience of life.

In this episode, we dive into:

-Why Eddie left his job and went to India to study yoga (3:31)

-How Eddie met his yoga teacher and the lessons he learned (11:23)

-Scientific studies to support the benefits of yoga (17:17)

-What yoga is doing on a neurophysiological level (22:35

-The Polyvagal Theory and how the vagus nerve affects our brain chemistry (23:28)

-Neural exercises and how they promote self-regulation, resilience, and social connectedness (29:54)

-The purpose of yoga (44:56)

-The connection between consciousness and our biology (62:51)

-The Yoga and Science Conference (79:28)

-The Breathing App and resonance breathing (86:34)

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Adventure is a mindset accessible to every pocketbook. Though often seen as an “escape” for those with money & time, Ginger Kern believes travel is not just about exploring other countries. She knew how it felt to be bold and adventurous abroad and wanted to avoid the trap of coming home and playing it safe with old routines.

With three simple questions, she found a way for anyone to stay in the traveler’s mindset and live a life of adventure, no matter where they are in the world.

Ginger Kern is a Fulbright alumna and a Global Shaper as part of the World Economic Forum. Originally from the Midwest, she left the U.S. to work in Europe for three years, traveling to 25 countries around the world by the age of 25. Through her online platform, Traveler’s Mindset, and through speaking across the U.S., she works to encourage a culture of openness, curiosity and adventure.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
