First Official Bob Davis Yoga Podcast-Podcast 663

Welcome to the first monthly yoga podcast as part of The Bob Davis Podcasts. Through all the news and current events podcasts over the years, yoga has been a behind the scenes commitment. In First Official Bob Davis Yoga Podcast-Podcast 663, we’ll talk exclusively the practice.

Forever A Student

First and foremost I will be forever a student. There are many yoga podcasts about teaching, nutrition and the poses. Not many about the experience of the student. The first podcast in this series then has to be about my history. How I came to Yoga. How I came to integrate it into my day to day life.

Yoga Every Damn Day

The Bob Davis Podcasts have done podcasts about Yoga or about people who practice Yoga and the links for those shows are here. Yoga has been a part of my travel podcasts. Where I practice. What Yoga is like in one town versus another on the road. It’s time now to spend some time focusing on the practice. We’ll start doing this once per month. The first podcast in this series is here.

It’s All About Growth

Like many people I came to fitness later in life. I came to yoga later in life, starting at the gym. You grow tentatively, in fits and starts, until you find a daily practice. For me it was Bikram. Now I do all kinds of yoga, practicing every day. Get the details in First Official Bob Davis Yoga Podcast-Podcast 663.

Don’t Even Notice The Heat Anymore

This podcast covers what it’s like to start ‘hot’ style Yoga, not knowing anything about any of it. For the people (like me) who practice ‘everydamnday‘, how that works, and the effects. The so called promises of Yoga. In First Official Bob Davis Yoga Podcast-Podcast 663.

Humility and Awe

I wouldn’t begin to tell people what kind of Yoga they ‘should’ do. Wouldn’t begin to make suggestions about what kind of nutritional guidelines one ‘should’ follow. There’s a certain level of humility that is a result of this practice. A approach different from talking about news and current events that is, for me, refreshing. Join me in First Official Bob Davis Yoga Podcast-Podcast 663.

What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628

Inspiration. We all need it. It is sadly lacking these days. In What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628 I spend some time at my man cave garage. While waxing and buffing Mobile Podcast Command I talk about what inspires me. Maybe you can make your own list while you listen.

Dragging Us Down

So much of the news and social media is negative and frankly uninspiring. Mentally and emotionally taxing. A let down. Time to make a list of what inspires me. Your list will be different. My list isn’t a complete list. Preparing for this podcast did not mean researching a list of inspiring things. It’s a stream of consciousness list. Some things will be left off. These are the things that inspire me now. In What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Travel Frees The Soul

Mobile Podcast Command inspires me because it means travel. Travel inspires me. Every trip is different. Lessons learned each time I head out are different no matter what the destination. Travel will inspire a person. It makes me want to break free. Turn over a new leaf. Cut the cords.

Travel planning inspires me. What’s the next trip? Should I head out to cover the 2020 elections and stay out? How am I going to do that? Listen as I buff and shine the mobile podcast command studio, and talk about inspiration in What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Why Aren’t Some People Happy

Had dinner with friends recently. Someone said a lot of people they know aren’t happy. The people I know that are happiest are people who follow their passion. Following your passion helps with inspiration. Since it’s close to Mother’s Day, I should point out that my mother taught me that. She always told me I should do the things that I love to do.

There Was a Time

When we were kids, we ran free. We did whatever we thought of. We lived in the moment. No friction. Why? Because we followed our passions. Why should so called adult life be any different? I am inspired by people of all ages who follow their passions. Whether it’s chucking everything, buying a camper and hitting the road, or writing that book and getting it published. We talk about it in What Inspires You These Days? Podcast 628.

Yes You Can

When we ‘grow up’ we’re pushed into structures. We believe things like, “You’re too old to do that”, or “That will never work”. Like a crust you have to break through. One thing inspiring me on a day to day basis is Yoga. You start out thinking you can never do what others can. Then it comes to you. If he can do it, maybe I can do it.

Time to Break Free

To wash away the crust of expectations and the heavy weight of the day to day chatter. Throw off the yoke of what doesn’t matter. In the end it’s the little things. A gentle push from a friend to reach out to someone in need. Someone who shows by example what a great marriage is. The open road.

Midnight Walk-Ambition Business Materialism-Podcast 615

Midnight Walk and Talk-Ambition Business Materialism-Podcast 615

Coffee in the morning? Yoga? Check and check. Doesn’t take much to make me happy these days. Have my wants become less than my needs? Motivation is essential to build a business. More clients. More revenue. Where does your motivation come from? In Midnight Walk and Talk-Ambition Business Materialism-Podcast 615.

Think Different

What’s your motivation? Material wants can fuel ambition. Good right? Thing is, creative people think a little differently. Motivated by the work. Add coffee, yoga and a roof and you probably have one happy creative. Thing is maybe that creative needs a little more, but doesn’t ‘know’ it. We’re going to walk and talk about it in Midnight Walk and Talk-Ambition Business Materialism-Podcast 615.

Unconscious Needs Surprise

Rules of the walk and talk podcast. No preparation. No plan. See what comes up. I was surprised in this podcast! Thoughts about what we need versus was we want in a material culture surfaced. Do we know what we need? Do we need a brand new car? Nice to have. No judgement on that new Bentley! But, do I need a new Bentley. Nah.

Simple Life

Got four pairs of old jeans. Two pairs of boots. Some flannel shirts. An all protein diet. Casino buffet night once a week. Water and coffee only. Yoga Mat. Two CarHart jackets. A hat and some broken glasses. A 2000 Ford Diesel Ambulance. An old Crown Vic. Travel and Adventure. Lots of audio equipment. Three old computers. Smart Phone. Stay up all night. Do a podcast. Feeling great. In Midnight Walk and Talk-Ambition Business Materialism-Podcast 615.

Meeting Needs

Sometimes we need more than we want. We just don’t know it. Maybe the ambition to serve more clients and a bigger audience would be served by making sure some needs, spoken or unspoken, get met. Now, about that Bentley.
