A “Lost” Podcast, A Recent Blog Post, & Handling Change

Interesting how life makes its twists and turns…below you will find a recovered podcast, a tale of a fellow practitioner, and a “how to” on approaching change – the yogic way.

Full Circle

The other morning (Saturday, 2/14/15) I took some photos of the sunrise before class, and used those photos the next day for a blog post about this changing universe and the path of yoga.

Within an hour or two after I published that post, someone wrote how it reminded them about their experience in one of our Meditation Circles from October 2013. Specifically they described how the blog post mirrored the theme from that meditation session about approaching and accepting change:

Been thinking of this lately, but when I saw your post this morning could not resist commenting…This year has truly been one of the most amazing work years of my life, and I attribute it in large part to a meditation session we had back in Oct. 2013 ( I keep a brief journal) when I asked you to talk about handling change…I was so discouraged with my job at that point and knew I had to make a change, but couldn’t summon the courage to do it…you responded with words very similar to your post today…and for some reason it really took…and I began the journey to end up where I am today…and while my career is nothing momentous in the grand scope of things, this change has meant the world to me…

In a follow-up reply to their letter I responded:

Interestingly, I have had that podcast in draft mode on my blog since Oct ’13 – I thought no one would be interested so I never published it….still it is there….with that same date…my guess is that whatever you took away from that podcast is far more meaningful than the podcast itself….

Back came the reply:

I would love to download it if you still have it!


This reminds me of what you said about the story I wrote about my Dad and the soda: you never know when the words you say will have a profound impact on those listening…
Paying heed to their suggestion, here is that “dusty” podcast from the Meditation Circle of Oct 2013 that has been sitting in my drafts folder for the last fifteen months. And the person is entirely correct – the below podcast is very much like the blog post of just a few days ago.
Interesting how life makes its twists and turns…yet somehow things come full circle.
