Going Pro Yoga Podcast - Ein Podcast von Michael Henri, Paul Teodo, Byron de Marsé - Donnerstags
Nothing is held back in this very special episode of Going Pro! Sitting beside Michael and Byron in the studio is healer, mystic, coach, and spiritual guide Amara Samata discussing her journey through an awakening and how it brought her to the work she does today. Beginning with her life’s story, Amara shares the many ways she was always seeking and looking for more from this life experience from a young age. Walking the audience through her work as an actress and the transition that brought her into yoga and eventually into Buddhism and Tibetan Tantra studies. She opens up on the years that led to her spiritual awakening, which she discusses in depth, even the nitty gritty details of what she describes as a “teeth orgasm!” Amara spends time defining awakening and the various paths that could lead one to have this experience. She reflects on her various teachers and learnings and what one experiences along the way. In the final third of the episode, Amara goes into her life’s work today, a method she’s developed called Inner Guidance, which accelerates the process of self work and supports others on their journey of spiritual growth. A method Byron has not only trained in but used as inspiration for his Empowerment Yoga, he and Amara discuss the profound impact it has had among those who have experienced it firsthand. This episode is filled with juicy stories and is certainly not one to miss!
