How to Deeply Soothe Yourself (from a Yoga Music Master)

It’s here… our 100th’s Episode! How remarkable is THIS? I’m agog… and I thank you all immensely for helping us build in reach, and effectiveness, as we spread the self-care word. In gratitude, I share my blog about the journey back to compassion I’ve been on and what I learned. It’s linked below. Because really, self-care is about YOUR compassion towards YOU. Then I invite Wah into our space for a fantastic interview… Yoga Music pioneer and self-soothing master Wah takes us on a fantastic ramble through all kinds of self-care ideas and strategies. Did you know tapping and humming are key ways to calm the central nervous system? Here’s what else I learned: Can music change your energy? What is the experience like of playing hours and hours of yoga music? Humming… why and how? Tapping and other stimulating ideas for tough times Self-love with and without a pet The soothing power of chatting with strangers … and of course, a soothing, healing sample of Wah’s music is played at the end of the show, under Teal’s ‘Full Moon Prayer’! The full text is here: Full Moon Prayer Love for all the enemies who have fought and can't agree. A time of resolution or at least compromise. A time for transformation of the body, mind and soul. Transformation of the heart to transcend any thoughts that could bring it down to the level of pettiness and greed. I pray for peace among my family and friends. May we all rest well together. And finally, I pray that we all obtain clarity of our existence and what is. (Myself included!) Thank you Moon gods and goddesses.                                       Love, Teal RESOURCES THE JOY OF LETTING GO BOOK Joy of Letting Go Free Sample of Audiobook On Learning to Be Compassionate and Why it is So Important Wah’s website Wah’s new self-care book, Self-Care: Building a Smarter, Stronger, Peaceful Self More gorgeous relaxation music from Wah SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/artist/4dUdNvFt1PhzClTKLIT83u APPLE https://music.apple.com/us/artist/wah/6803985 MORE ABOUT WAH Wah’s CDs have sold over 100,000 units worldwide; if you have taken a yoga class in the last 5 years you have undoubtedly heard her music.
