Angry For The Right Reasons - Story of Shiva and the Warrior [Episode 47]
Is there a place for anger on the spiritual path? In this episode, we dive into the story of the Warrior, Virabhadra, a ferocious aspect of the deity Shiva, and learn about our own anger. If you've been to a yoga class, chances are you've done a posture named after the Warrior, Virabhadra, but the story of Virabhadra goes much deeper. In this classic tale of love and destruction, we find permission to have the whole human experience, without trying to suppress or bypass certain emotions, and learn how anger can lead to deeper experiences of compassion and understanding.

Why You've Been Cursed (and Blessed) To Forget Who You Are - A Hanuman Story [Episode 44]
Something often happens in our youth. From young, vibrant beings, alive with energy and potential, we are molded and shaped by society, family, and media. That loss of uniqueness can often diminish our radiance as beings. Especially in the western world, where education can often just mean creating a better consumer, we often lose touch with our inner most being in our race to adulthood. In this episode we explore a story of Hanuman to tell us why forgetting is important; why being molded by culture and society serves an ultimate purpose. It's through our necessary process of forgetfulness that we are ultimately lead back to who we really are.
