Slouching Towards Enlightenment

What does enlightenment sound like? In a wild departure from the typical STE form, Brienne and Théo each curate ‘enlightenment playlists”, discussing what states of consciousness and an enlightened experience might be like in music form.

Brienne and Théo reflect on the past year since they started Slouching Towards Enlightenment; the knowledge, the jokes, the guests, and the ever growing community of Vedic Meditators. They also discuss the importance of back support and the mechanics of following charm and desires.

Introducing our dear friend, very special guest, and stuntwoman extraordinaire; Hayley Wright! Hayley sit down with Brienne and Théo to discuss how the break she needed from her work as a stuntwoman lead her Vedic Meditation on the eve of the pandemic. Now a devoted practitioner of Vedic Meditation, Hayley joins Slouching Towards Enlightenment to discuss her incredible story.

Théo and Brienne yap, gab, and persiflate about the "highest" states of consciousness beyond Unity Consciousness, kundalini experiences, how to meditate while co-habitating with babies. They also find their new band name, HOT CREAM!
(Trigger warning: We say "hot cream" more than once in this episode.)

Théo and Brie's friend group in Santa Fe have a tumultuous week (more like two weeks) filled with all kinds of challenges. Every single friend in the group is met with an unforeseeable curveball, dose of drama, or an emotional or physical stressor. Usually in times like this, the go-to person to consult is the meditation teacher. But what happens when the meditation teacher is going through it too? What's it like when the students have to be there for the teacher? Luckily we all have an amazing meditation practice that doesn't keep us immune from challenges, but helps us endure, adapt, and get though them with love, alacrity, and grace. Most of the time.
