Yoga is a mind, body, soul practice that is at least 5,000 years old. As written in the book, Light on Yoga by B.K.S Iyengar, which I read in this episode, "The word Yoga is derived from the Sanskrit root yuj meaning to bind, join, attach, and yoke, to direct and concentrate one's attention on, to use and apply. It also means union or communion. It is the true union of our will with the will of God. 'It thus means,' says Mahadev Desai in his introduction to the Gita according to Ghandi, 'the yoking of all the powers of body, mind, and soul to God ; it means the disciplining of the intellect, the mind, the emotions, the will, which that Yoga pre-supposes ; it means a poise of the soul which enables one to look at life in all its aspects evenly.'

In this episode I share various types of yoga, my experience and perspective as a yoga teacher, as well as many excerpts from Light on Yoga," that explain the philosophy of yoga and it's parts.

I hope this episode inspires you to explore the practice if it is something you have thought about in the past. I hope it helps you see it as more than a workout or stretch, and instead a practice of discipline and patience that evolves into a journey of self discovery and enlightenment. I hope you see it as something that is for ANY and EVERY body of any shape, size, or ability. There is a practice for you.

Healing is always of the mind. In this episode, I explain the definition of Healing through A Course in Miracles teachings. I also explain why it is that we seek so many different forms of healing, why they work, and what we're really trying to do in the process. This episode goes in a direction you may not be expecting, but it serves as a primer for all of the others to come. Proceed as best as you can with an open mind. May you hear exactly what it is that you need to hear .

I get super vulnerable and personal in this episode as I share all of my experiences with the coaches and mentors I've had from the start of my personal development journey up until now. I share what I liked, what I didn't like, what I ignored, and some of the hard lessons I had to learn. I also share the bold move I made in order to pay for the mentor I currently have.

A good coach or mentor is essentially a teacher who's intention is to serve you by helping you learn how to level up and help yourself. A good teacher is one who is eventually no longer needed, but perhaps still wanted. There are so many different niches in the coaching world, and it's up to you to decide which one is the right fit for you.

Coaches and mentors are for people who are unhappy with their results in life and ready for a change, but it is NOT a replacement for getting a therapist. I always say that having both is the optimal combination. A therapist helps you heal from your past, while a good coach or mentor helps you create and focus on your goals in life so that you move forward and towards the way you truly want to live.

Coaching can be done one on one or in a group setting, via skype, or on the phone. Some will actually do in person if available. Different styles resonate with different people. The most important thing is that you listen to and trust yourself when picking the person you are trusting to teach you. It's also important to understand that a coach/mentor is not responsible for your results. You are. Their only responsibility is to teach you and teach you well.

I invested in working with coaches and programs that weren't what I thought they would be, but I still learned a ton from those experiences, and they eventually led me to the mentor hat I have now, who I love and am so so happy with. Sometimes it takes trial and error, but hopefully this episode will help prevent you from making the same mistakes I did.

This episode is Part 2 of a 4 Part series called What The F are the Laws of the Universe? There are 12 Laws, and in the last episode I covered 3: The Law of Divine Oneness, The Law of Vibration, and The Law of Correspondence.

In this episode I go over the popularly known The Law of Attraction, The Law of Inspired Action, and The Law of Perpetual Transmutation. 

Each of these laws work in harmony with one another, and are working at all times. The question is whether or not YOU are working in harmony with them. Once you understand these laws, you can use your knowledge to align with these laws, so that you can consciously create the kind of life that you want.

Welcome to the first episode of the WTF Podcast: With The Flow. My name is Stefany Babain, and I'm here to answer all of your WTF questions around anything related to spirituality, mindset, and the metaphysical. I'll answer all of your What the F, Who The F, Where the F, When The F, Why the F, and even though it doesn't start with a "W," the occasional How the F questions that you might have upon entering the world of personal development. Ultimately, my hope and intention for every episode is that you leave smiling, and understanding yourself a little a bit more, and how to live a happier life IN THE FLOW with this miraculous, infinitely expanding, all loving Universe that we all call home.
