What if joy wasn’t something we wait for, but something we cultivate?
In this episode, Daniela shares a personal story that begins on a lake near Madrid, when, after more than thirty years, she went water skiing again. What started as a moment of fear and hesitation became a powerful reminder of what yoga calls Ānanda, the bliss that already lives within us.
Through storytelling and reflection, Daniela explores how joy is not a reward for when life is perfect, but a discipline of returning to what makes us feel alive.
She invites you to listen to your inner guidance, to notice the small things that bring lightness and peace, and to begin creating your own joy list, a simple but profound practice to come back to when stress or doubt appear.
Because joy isn’t something we chase,
it’s something we cultivate.
Listen until the end and find out a powerful Kundalini Yoga mantra to cultivate the state of Ānanda.

What if the very things that sustain us, like rest, meditation, connection, and joy, are the first ones we treat as optional?
In this episode, Pedro reflects on the surprising pattern he has seen after years of guiding students in Imagine Yoga Academy’s Teacher Trainings: the same reason people say yes to their practice is often the reason others say no.
With warmth, honesty, and practical wisdom, Pedro explores what he calls The Trick of Optional, the invisible habit of postponing what truly nourishes us, and shares how simple, consistent choices can transform our wellbeing, our relationships, and the way we show up in the world.
A reminder that your well-being is not a luxury; it is your foundation.
✨ Listen now and remember: the things that truly matter are only optional until you realize they are not.

In this episode, Daniela invites you to explore the quiet, powerful space where true self-worth begins: within.
So often, we move through life searching for validation, looking for proof that we belong. But what if belonging has never been something to earn… only something to remember?
Drawing inspiration from Brené Brown and the teachings of Kundalini Yoga, Daniela reflects on how the voice inside our head can become our best coach, or our worst bully, and how we can consciously rebuild it to lift us up instead of tearing us down.
Through the practice of Sat Nam, “my true identity”, we reconnect with our inner wholeness and remember that we are already enough, exactly as we are.
This episode is a gentle reminder that self-worth is not something we find; it’s something we cultivate.
One breath, one thought, one kind word at a time. 🌿
If this conversation speaks to you, take it as an invitation to go deeper into your practice — to explore how Kundalini Yoga can help you rewire your inner voice and live from your truth.
Because no one belongs here more than you.

There’s a kind of wisdom that can’t be studied, read, or reasoned.
It’s the wisdom that lives in your body, the quiet intelligence that has carried your entire story and still knows the way home.
In this episode, Pedro explores what she calls Embodied Wisdom, the heart of Kundalini Yoga and the key to real transformation.
Through the lens of Asana, Pranayama, and Mantra, she shares how each practice reveals what the mind alone can’t:
how we meet life’s challenges, how we trust, and how we allow truth to move through us.
You’ll hear a personal story about strength and surrender, discover why your breath mirrors the way you live, and feel how sound becomes a bridge to authenticity.
Because in Kundalini Yoga, every movement, every breath, every vibration is a conversation with your soul,
a reminder that the truth you’ve been searching for is already within you.
✨ Listen now, and remember what your body has been trying to tell you all along.

There are moments in life when you’re no longer who you were, but not yet who you’re becoming.
That in-between can feel uncertain, uncomfortable… even lonely.
And yet, it’s one of the most sacred spaces we’ll ever walk through.
In this episode, Daniela explores the art of the pause, that space where transformation begins quietly, before it becomes visible.
Through personal story, yogic wisdom, and the teachings of Kundalini Yoga, she shares how to stay open and grounded while everything inside you rearranges.
Because real change doesn’t happen when we rush.
It happens when we trust the process… and surrender to the space in between. 🌿

There’s a moment in every life when something inside whispers, “This needs to change.”
In this episode, Pedro invites you on a journey through the three stages of transformation:
1️⃣ Recognition: the moment you realize something isn’t working,
2️⃣ The First Steps: the gentle experiments that begin to shift your energy, and
3️⃣ Immersion: the stage where true transformation takes root.
Through the lens of Kundalini Yoga, neuroscience, and human experience, we explore why quick fixes rarely last, and how choosing depth over speed can completely reshape your life.
Because transformation doesn’t wait for perfection — it begins the moment you surrender to the process and stop trying to control it. 🌿
✨ Tune in to reconnect with your own rhythm of growth, and remember that you can step into transformation at any stage… even today.

What you focus on shapes the reality you live in, often without you even realizing it.
In this episode, we explore one of the most powerful and overlooked truths about the mind: your attention is where your energy goes. Through science, storytelling, and Kundalini wisdom, Daniela invites you to look closely at how your focus might be feeding the very things you want to move beyond, and how a conscious shift in attention can completely change the way you experience life.
You will learn:
🌿 Why your brain is wired to look for what you believe and how to rewire that filter.
🧠 How negativity bias hijacks your focus and how to take it back.
🔥 A simple 2 minute practice to train your attention toward what you truly want to grow.
This is not about ignoring reality or pretending everything is perfect. It is about reclaiming the power to choose what you water and watching your life transform from the inside out.

Have you ever felt like the universe was sending you a message?
An ad that appears again and again, a phrase you overhear at the perfect moment, a book that seems to fall into your hands…
Are these just coincidences, or could they be signs?
In this episode of The Imagine Podcast, Pedro shares a powerful story from Imagine's Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training in Zürich, where nearly 40% of students said they felt “called” by a message that kept reappearing. What began as simple publicity became something much deeper: a sign that it was time for change.
Through storytelling, reflection, and science, you’ll discover:
🌿 Why signs are not external messages, but mirrors of your own inner wisdom.
🌿 How psychology and neuroscience explain intuition, synchronicity, and “gut feelings.”
🌿 Three practical questions to recognize when something is truly a sign.
If you’ve been wondering whether the signals around you mean something, this episode will help you understand the truth: a sign is real when it stirs something inside you.
💛 Listen now and discover how to recognize when life is speaking directly to you.

You’ll discover why living in alignment restores energy, how authenticity frees us from the weight of masks, and how belief builds an inner flame that doesn’t flicker with every challenge. With practical reflections this episode invites you to step into your own radiance, so that your presence lights the way for others.

Recently, our friend and Imagine graduate Nadja Hansen shared a post that hit hard: burnout isn’t just an individual problem, it’s a growing crisis that demands attention, now. Personally, socially, urgently.
By coincidence, just a day before, we were having a deep conversation with a close friend at home. A guy who, by all traditional measures, seems to have it all… but of course, there’s always a but.
These two moments got us thinking and talking. So, we decided to try something new: an audio format, designed to spark real, meaningful conversations. This one is about coming back home. About being home. About the soul, our inner truth, and the journey back to ourselves.
Listen... and we hope you join the conversation.
