Ep 26: Adolescent Growing Pains: Cultivating Inner Knowing with Dana Evans

What if you viewed your mind like a teenage girl? All awkward and lanky, carrying this belief that she knows it all. Could you approach your mind with compassion? Dana “rhymes with banana” Evans is my guest for this episode and we really get animated (or at least I do!) during this conversation about calming the mind with compassion so that we can turn up the volume on our inner voice. Join me for some great insights on how we can create more space in our bodies and in our heads when we listen more often to our inner knowing rather than spin into a frenzy of overthinking. And when that happens, an amazing peace can wash over us. There’s so much goodness in this one that I can’t choose one to highlight here. You’ll have to listen for yourself! BUT! I will say that I had a lot of fun AND beach balls make the best analogy! * Poems: Hafiz’s “I Saw Two Birds” and Oriah Mountain Dream’s “The Invitation” * Dana Evans’s 4-day challenge on turning up your inner voice: https://alignful.com/challenge * BIPOC-only yoga & meditation class Sundays at 5:30pm Sign up here: https://suryagian.com
