Interviews, meditations, and musings to promote flourishing in academia through the application, practice, and embodiment of yoga principles. I hope that we can, together, create higher vibrations in higher education (#HVHE).
I am a 500+hour registered yoga teacher and associate professor of Human Nutrition, Foods, and Exercise at Virginia Tech. I bring you this work as part of my Extension outreach and expertise in Dissemination and Implementation Science.
What I share: my experience, strength, and hope for applying yoga principles in academia for mental, physical, social, spiritual health.
What my guests share: Their experiences navigating their jobs, what they knew or wish they knew, and what they would share with anyone on the journey behind them.
Listen in if: You are a newly graduated MS student; a holistic lifestyle coach; a med student; Extension specialist; someone who is burned out and leaving or left academia; a postdoc; professor; looking for financial wellness; someone who wants to know more about media training; someone who wants to work for the government or nonprofit; or someone training to be any of the above; AND someone who loves an academic but has no idea what we do

Samma Says: Feeling overwhelmed? Pause with me for 5 minutes
You're feeling overwhelmed? Who wouldn't be with what you have going on. Take a few moments to pause with me and greet and explore the sensation of overwhelm.
Own, invest, take authority of your sensation
Identify where it lives in your body
Stay curious and build a relationship with the sensation
Emotions are energy in motion
Energy in motion
Emotional flexibility is the goal; strength to change is the goal; this is a workout for your soul
Thank you overwhelm for alerting me. I am not broken, I am human. I needed this sensation to cue me to pause.
Thank you, but I don't need you, Overwhelm, right this moment.
What do you need right now?
Be aware without judgement, be kind to you.
