Episode 210| OM. with Andrea Marcum

Andrea Marcum is a yoga teacher, known for weaving accessible yogic philosophy into her poses. She loves leading newbies, athletes and executives and showing them the power of a mindful practice. Andrea just released her first book, Close To Om: Stretching Yoga From Your Mat to Your Life, an insightful and valuable book on working through our life struggles on the mat.

 

In this episode, Andrea talks about how she used her yoga mat as a magic carpet to travel the world. She explains why gratitude and self development are her favorite parts of her yoga practice, why she always leans into discomfort and how to become a master of our self growth.

 

Radically Vibrant Andrea

 

• Life isn’t black and white, it exists in a grey zone where we have to follow discomfort to find contentment
• We have to stay with our discomfort long enough that we can water the seeds, give them time to grow and then bear the fruit
• Be purposeful with creating time for insight to come into your life by giving attention to strangers and new people in your life

 

Radically Inspired Clarity

 

• As a yoga teacher, use your yoga mat as a magic carpet to go and travel the world
• Where there is resistance, there is reason-trust the unfolding of time to be in your favor
• Yoga is a ritual of simply sitting and being and that can be its most profound effect

 

 

Andrea Answers…

• What’s the largest lesson you have learned in regards to spirituality?
• Where do you see yoga going in the next twenty years?
