Embodied Curiosity
Embodied Curiosity
Micheala Ranz
What does embodiment feel like? ​How can I listen to my body, feel less shame and cultivate more curiously? ​How can I move in novel and indulgent ways? ​What does it feel like in my body to be curious? How can I cultivate curiosity towards my body and it’s signals? ​These are some of the guiding questions of my embodied curiosity practice, a practice that incorporates many philosophies and modalities. On this show ​I will be interviewing big thinkers and changemakers in the fields of embodiment, movement, herbalism, nature connection, holistic health, neuroscience, ancestry, and more!

SLOW FLOW YOGA // 30 Minute Beginner Yoga Class To Relax & Connect With Your Body   Welcome beautiful friends!   Today I am sharing with you a 30 minute slow flow yoga sequence. This is my go to flow, for whenever I need a quick movement break. I really enjoyed the beautiful sunshine outside on this chilly February day, watching the birds fly overhead, and going inward to connect with my body.    This is my first time sharing a full yoga class on here, so in honor of that I have made the theme:   *** Beginner's Mind ***  Shoshin - Beginners Mind   "In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few." - Shunryu Suzuki   Thank you for joining me on your mat, and let me know in the comments if you would like me to continue sharing videos like this!   ~ Micheala --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/embodiedcuriosity/support

Passion Projects // A Call To Follow Your Curiosity
I felt inspired this morning to record a solo episode! Something big is on my mind, something I've been fired up about for as long as I can remember: * PASSION PROJECTS * And I'm not even sure that's the correct name for it, perhaps "Creative Projects" "Interest Project" or even just "Follow Your Curiosity" The call to follow these impulses, these desires, has been a guiding light in my journey through life, and I am very passionate about encouraging others to do the same. I hope to be talking more about this on my website, https://www.michealaranz.com/ so go check out what I'm up to there if this sparked your curiosity. Thanks for being here!  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/embodiedcuriosity/support
