The Uplifted Yoga Podcast
What if the world itself could become your meditation object? In this episode, we explore Chapter 10 of the Bhagavad Gita, known as Vibhuti Yoga ā the yoga of divine manifestation and sacred seeing. This chapter explores how to train our perception and helps us stop dividing life into āspiritualā and ānot spiritual.ā The sunset, the breath, the body, the mountain, even impermanence, all can become doorways back to the sacred. It also marks a turning point in Arjunaās relationship with Krishna. Until now, Arjuna has known Krishna as his friend, cousin, mentor, and charioteer. Here,...

Do cravings, fatigue, or hormonal shifts have you feeling like a stranger in your body? In this episode, Iām joined by Sema Ćzpekmezci for a grounded, compassionate conversation about chronic illness, womenās health, perimenopause, hormones, and what it really means to listen to your body. We explore how midlife changes can feel confusing and how symptoms like cravings, energy dips, mood shifts, and inflammation can become invitations into deeper self-understanding. Sema also shares a powerful way to think about your hormones as the āCEOā of your body and why food, stress, blood...

Whatās actually happening in the body when yoga helps you ācalm downā? In this behind-the-scenes lesson pulled directly from the Uplifted 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training, we explore the nervous system science behind yoga, and why practices like breathwork, inversions, mantra, repetition, and Savasana can profoundly shift your stress response. Youāll learn why yoga isnāt just about relaxing, but about building awareness, resilience, and the ability to move skillfully between stress and recovery. We explore: š¹ How yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system š¹ Why slow...

Why do the worldās great spiritual traditions teach through stories, imagery, and metaphor instead of simple instructions? In this episode, Iāll explore why metaphor changes us in a way facts alone cannot and how imagery bypasses the analytical mind to speak directly to the nervous system, imagination, memory, and body. Building on Part 1, weāll dive deeper into Tantraās vision of awakening as a love story between Shiva and Shakti: awareness and energy, stillness and sensation, consciousness and embodiment. Iāll explore: š¹ Why metaphor activates the nervous system differently than...

How do you make a big decision⦠yogically? In this episode, I explore what happens when you deeply desire something ā a new job, a baby, a retreat, a training, a relationship ā but donāt actually have the capacity to hold it right now. This is a conversation about desire, capacity, and the real conditions for clarity. Because so often we think weāre confused, when really whatās happening is that one part of us wants something badly, and another part of us knows we donāt have the bandwidth. In this episode, I explore: š¹ The difference between desire and capacity and why both...

What if the patterns running your life didnāt start with you? In this conversation, I sit down with Uplifted alum Amy Hunter to talk about the deeper work of somatic coaching, recovery, and healing family-of-origin patterns. Amy has taken multiple trainings inside the Uplifted ecosystem ā including 200-hour, 300-hour, Kundalini, Embodied Yoga Life Coaching, and most recently the AI course ā and now brings all of that into her own coaching practice. Together, we explore what it looks like to move from self-awareness into real change. In this episode, we cover: š¹ How somatic coaching...

What if the deepest spiritual secret wasnāt hidden somewhere far away, but woven into your ordinary life right now? In Chapter 9 of the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna reveals what he calls the āking of knowledgeā and the āmost confidential secretā. A teaching so simple and intimate that most people overlook it completely. This episode explores the heart of bhakti yoga: devotion, relationship with the divine, and the radical idea that the sacred permeates everything. We explore: š¹ Why Krishna says the divine is both everywhere and beyond everything š¹ The paradox at the center of yoga...

What if stress isnāt actually the problem? What if the real issue is that your body never got to finish the stress response? In this episode, we revisit one of the most powerful conversations weāve ever had on the podcast: why healing isnāt about becoming calm all the time and how sacred rage, movement, and emotional expression may actually be the missing piece to your healing. Using the archetype of the Hindu goddess Kali, we explore the difference between suppression and regulation, why so many yogis get stuck in spiritual bypassing, and how somatic practices help the body finally...

Have you ever noticed that when humans try to talk about God, awakening, truth, or the divine we almost never explain it directly? Instead, we tell stories. We say life is a battlefield. God is a shepherd. The soul is a river returning to the sea. The self is two birds sitting in the same tree. Across cultures, centuries, and spiritual traditions, mystics donāt simply define the divine, they paint it. In this episode, I take you on a kind of devotional poetry slam through sacred metaphor. Weāll explore passages from the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, the Psalms, and yogic philosophy to see...
