Summary
What happens when two yoga teachers fall down a NASA rabbit hole and can't stop thinking about non-duality, The Overview Effect, and Grandmother Moon? This episode of Yoga-ish — our more personal, less technique-focused podcast — is exactly that kind of conversation. Yoga-ish is where Jason and Andrea talk about their actual lives: what they're reading, watching, thinking about, and how all of it connects (loosely) to yoga, mindfulness, and the work of being a human. We covered so much this week, including: - Artemis II & The Overview Effect — and why astronauts returning from space sound a lot like meditators coming out of deep practice - Christina Koch's transmission from the far side of the moon and what "moon joy" actually means - Our review of Project Hail Mary + what we're reading - Neurodivergent kids, intrinsic motivation, and letting go of the sticker chart - 10 years of Yogaland — and what's coming next For more of Andrea's essays and access to free guided meditations, subscribe to her Substack: yogaland.substack.com Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/yogaland .
