Elephant Journal: Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis

Finding Balance in Today's Crazy World. A conversation with Joanna Macy. "The ones with a broken heart are the most interesting. When your heart breaks, that's what allows the love to come through strong." ~ Joanna Macy Bio: Joanna Macy is a big deal. A sweetie. And works and plays for a better planet... joannamacy.net. Activism isn't fighting for or against something: it's borne of love, it's working against us vs. them-ism and aggression itself. Podcast produced by: Vanessa Boehm.

The Future of Yoga…or Lack Thereof. Instagram wholly has captured the attention and focus of every young yoga teacher—that’s where they blog, that’s where they post photos, that’s where they post captions. All of the great yoga teachers that are retiring now or in 10 years are basically unknown. In one generation, we have lost decades and decades of learning and study.

Cheerful New Year from Waylon Lewis! In this episode, Waylon discusses what New Year's Resolutions often lack. Willpower breaks, falters in the warm trance of the present moment "maybe I'll just eat that entire cake." Motivation comes from empathy, from appreciation, and from the feeling that we can be of benefit. "What is one thing I feel compassion about?" Ask yourself, "What is one thing I'm grateful for?"

Everything we love is getting gutted because we are dependent on viral. We can’t tackle climate change if we don’t believe in it. We can’t defend democracy if we don’t value it. We have to talk about the boring—but beautiful and wonderful things—that aren't getting talked about on Instagram.

How can we make Holidays special again? The solution is not convenient—it's slowing down, being present, shopping locally from local crafts people. There’s a six-foot-five 85-year-old man who is madly in love with wood, and makes bowls and Christmas ornaments. He inspires me. I can’t tell you when, if ever, Jeff Bezos inspired me.

We have to examine our assumptions about shaming. Next time someone shames you, try to feel it first, then thoughtfully take responsibility, respond, and don’t villainize the other person. Let’s all try to be more mindful in our lives and listen. Podcast produced by: Vanessa Boehm; Music by Adam Agee, recorded live at Walk the Talk Show events.
