    About this Episode

    As a world-renowned yoga teacher who leads classes alongside bands like Arcade Fire and singer songwriters like Xavier Rudd and Michael Franti; former professional basketball player; and Founder of One Yoga, Ryan Leier's life purpose is to love and be yoga.  He believes yoga can bring people together in a way that little else can, except perhaps music. “Yoga is for everybody no matter what. It’s not really as much about the postures as people think it is. If you can breathe, you can experience the magic of yoga.” 

     

    In this episode, Allie explores Ryan’s human experience. They dive deep into:

    • The ways he has used really confronting circumstances in his own life- the death of a daughter, humility from falling off the pedestal and the journey of being a committed student- to learn and become stronger
    • Why the time is now to transform our relationship to confrontation and experience the freedom that lies on the other side of it
    • The choice we have to turn everything into our teacher- people, experiences and circumstances- and how these lessons are what shapes our human experience
    • The importance of having true teachers in our lives who call us out on our BS, challenge us and remind us who we are at our essence
    • Why it’s essential to find something that will connect you to the present moment because the present moment is where everything is possible
