Through a collage of conversations, here we distill mindful living and timeless wisdom within a modern everyday context. Experience rich and insightful dialogue with a wide variety of guests as we explore the melodies and mechanics of life. Here, we nurture and value the delicate relationship with seasonal rhythm, our outer environment, and also delve into the unlimited reservoir of quietude and neutrality within. We venture into concepts around mindfulness, meditation, Yoga, Ayurveda, breath work, movement, mantra, harmonious seasonal living, motherhood, mindset, and what it looks like to lead a life living in alignment. With sincerity, curiosity, and studentship, we navigate that which makes us come alive.

Dr Lauren Tober is a Clinical Psychologist, Senior Yoga Teacher and author of Mental Health Aware Yoga: A Guide for Yoga Teachers, based in Mullumbimby, Australia.

With a passion for health, healing, happiness and awakening, Lauren integrates the best of Western psychology with ancient yogic wisdom, both on and off the mat.

Passionate about the life-changing benefits of yoga, Lauren is the founder of the Yoga Psychology Institute and the Mental Health Aware Yoga training. This professional development training for Yoga Teachers is designed to educate teachers about mental health so they can support their yoga students experiencing mental health challenges with compassion, confidence and skill.
