“Have a well thought out plan for your yoga routine, but be secure enough to throw out the plan when it doesn’t serve you anymore.” – Brett Larkin

Are you ready to infuse your daily life with the transformative power of yoga?

Yoga isn’t just about holding a pose or finding your zen on the mat. It’s a transformative lifestyle with benefits that extend far beyond the physical. And that’s exactly why Brett Larkin, founder of her award-winning YouTube channel, Uplifted™️ Online Yoga Teacher Trainings, is on a mission to redefine what it means to live a yogic life. For Brett, yoga extends well beyond just the practice on the mat but permeates into everyday life.  It’s this home truth that led her to coin the term ‘Yoga Life,’ viewing every aspect of daily existence as a yoga studio of sorts. 

In this episode of The Elevated Life podcast, we’re sharing “How to Integrate Yoga into Your Daily Life with Brett Larkin” to help you embrace a heart-centered approach to living. Whether you’re a seasoned yogi or just starting your journey, this episode is packed with wisdom to elevate your practice!

Tune in to hear:

How to Integrate Yoga into Your Daily Life with Brett Larkin

Craft Your Own Practice

Ditch the cookie-cutter approach and tailor your yoga routine to fit your lifestyle, time constraints, and body’s needs. Whether it’s a few moments of deep breathing or a full hour of practice, make it your own. It’s all about quality over quantity.

Breathe Mindfully

Transform mundane moments into mindful ones by tuning into your breath. Whether you’re stuck in traffic or tackling a mountain of dishes, you can anchor your awareness into your breath. Notice its rhythm, its depth, and how it calms your nerves in stressful environments.

Tune into Your Body’s Wisdom

Place your hands on your heart or belly and reconnect with your physical self. Ask yourself: “How am I feeling right now?” “What does my body need?” These simple gestures spark self-awareness, guiding you to make conscious decisions to care for your body, mind, and spirit.

Follow Your Chakras

Understand your energetic balance by focusing on your chakras. These represent different aspects of our psyche, emotions, and physical health. By understanding which chakras you connect with most during yoga practice, you can navigate potential blockages in your daily life, whether in your relationships, career, or personal growth.

Be Flexible and Forgiving

Let go of the need for perfection and forgive yourself when things don’t go as planned. Even seasoned yogis stumble and fall on their mats. Learn to laugh at your missteps and adjust your practice as needed. Remember, it’s not about achieving the perfect pose; it’s about feeling good from the inside out.
