A wondrous, buried treasure from the 20-year On Being archive, with renowned yoga teacher Matthew Sanford. Be prepared, as you listen to what follows, to take in subtleties and gracefulness you've never before pondered — or tried to feel in yourself — in the interplay between your mind and your body.

Matthew has an immensely energetic physical presence. He has been paralyzed from the chest down since a car accident in 1978. But he likes to say that his experience is only more extreme, not so different, from that of everyone else. He's written, "We are all leaving our bodies — this is the inevitable arc of living. Death cannot be avoided; neither can the inward silence that comes with the aging process." Matthew’s intricate knowledge of that "inward silence," which he was forced to befriend after the noisy connections which most of us take for granted were severed — it’s revelatory. So is his insistence that it’s not possible to live more deeply in your body — in all its grace and all its flaws — without becoming more compassionate towards all of life. And: if you do yoga, you will never think about what it is affecting inside you in the same way again.

Krista sat with Matthew Sanford in 2006, just after he'd published his beautiful book Waking: A Memoir of Trauma and Transcendence.

Matthew Sanford is the founder and president of Mind Body Solutions. He teaches yoga for all kinds of bodies, including adaptive yoga classes weekly, and holds regular virtual gatherings with people around the world. A video library of his teaching methods for yoga teachers is freely available. His book is Waking: A Memoir of Trauma and Transcendence.

In this episode, I am sharing about my first experience sitting with Shipibo Ayahuasca, and my first time working with a direct lineage. This was a completely new medicine and experience for me, and despite going feeling disconnected to Ayahuasca, I had a very powerful and beautiful experience.

After 30+ sits with a different lineage of this medicine, I finally got to meet the spirit of Ayahuasca. I received so many beautiful treasures and gifts about trusting myself, healing my gut, and how to walk in reverence and respect.

What I talked about:

• First impressions at Reunion Experience in Costa Rica
• The Shipibo style of Ayahuasca ceremony
• Receiving Ikaros (sacred songs) from the Maestras
• Navigating my doubts and disconnection with Ayahuasca medicine
• How I stopped resisting the medicine
• Swimming in a Shipibo visionary state
• Lessons on reverence and respect from Ayahuasca
• Trusting myself & syncing my gut with my heart
• Lettings go pre-conceived notions about Ayahuasca
• Learning about the intelligence of the human body

It's a well-known fact he was raised by coyotes and is now raising one of his own on the bones of an old farm nestled along the banks of a tiny trout stream somewhere in Westchester County, New York.
