Most of us have felt insecure from time to time. Occasionally that insecurity shows up as imposter syndrome, or feeling like a fraud or unworthy of the position you hold.On this episode we explore the different reasons imposter syndrome might arise for yoga teachers and how to reframe things so that you don't get in your own way. We also reflect on the role that gender can play, and when imposter syndrome might be an important signal that you don't want to ignore.Show notes: https://www.jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode252 Hosted on Acast.

My guest on this episode of Yogaland is therapist and yoga teacher, James Woods. About 10 years ago, in his work a therapist in the juvenile justice system, foster care system, and mental health system, James felt like he was not able to make an impact the way he'd hoped.⁠⁠When he discovered yoga, he felt like he found himself and his purpose -- and he decided to bring it to the kids and teachers in his community.⁠⁠On this episode, we talk about how yoga was the perfect adjunct to James' training as a therapist, the importance of teaching kids self-regulation, and how essential it is to feel a sense of belonging.⁠⁠James also shares a very wise(and crucial!) approach to take if you'd like to teach yoga in schools. ⁠Show notes; http://www.jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode251 Hosted on Acast.
