| Finding Acceptance in Times of Change | 17 Sep 2024 | 00:23:15 | |
Episode 207: Finding Acceptance in Times of Change | In this episode of The Yoga Inspired Life Podcast, Shayla explores how to navigate life’s inevitable changes with acceptance, mindfulness, and trust. Change is a natural part of life, but it can often feel overwhelming and out of our control. Shayla draws on the yogic principle of Santosha—contentment—to guide listeners through the process of finding peace and satisfaction, even when life feels uncertain or off course. Through mindfulness practices, self-soothing techniques, and manifestation tips, Shayla shares practical tools to help you stay grounded and aligned during periods of transition. From embracing change as an opportunity for growth to trusting the path you can’t yet see, this episode offers wisdom for anyone navigating shifts in life, whether big or small. Tune in to learn how to cultivate Santosha, keep your energy aligned, and trust that even the detours are leading you toward something greater. Shayla also provides soothing exercises and manifestation practices to help you release control and find peace in the present moment, no matter what changes lie ahead.

Episode 106: Today we are chatting all things sleep with special guest Sofia Axelrod, PhD. Sofia is a neuroscientist, sleep consultant, author of “How Babies Sleep” and founder of Kulala. Dr. Axelrod is a sleep researcher in the laboratory of Michael W. Young, the winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology of Medicine. When she became pregnant with her first child, Dr. Axelrod, a lifelong insomniac, feared she would never sleep again. After the birth of her first baby, she naturally applied her expert knowledge to baby’s sleep. It worked so well that she started working with other families, hosting baby sleep workshops, and developing science-based baby sleep products through her company, Kulala™. Through her work, Dr. Axelrod is providing new parents with the thing they needed the most: a good night’s sleep. By helping the public using sleep secrets plucked from the frontlines of scientific research, Dr. Axelrod’s ultimate goal is to fundamentally improve sleep in our notoriously sleep-deprived society, in particular for parents of young children.
