Yoga Strong
Bonnie Weeks
To be Yoga Strong is to pay attention to not only your body, but how you navigate being human. While combining strength and grace creates a powerful flow-based yoga practice, it is the practice of paying attention in the same ways off-the-mat that we hope to build.
This podcast is a guide for yoga teachers, practitioners and people trying to craft a life they're proud AF about. This is about owning your voice. This is about resilience, compassion, sensuality, and building a home in yourself. We don't do this alone.

216 - The Rooms We Build In Ourselves
Yoga Strong
12/15/23 • 20 min
Have you ever painted a wall in your house and felt like the experience of the entire room was transformed--from a can of paint?
Today we talk about how the little things are the big things. And how it often doesn't take much to shift us-- how we move, how we think--even our whole damn lives.

241 - Courage in the Face of Hurdles
Yoga Strong
06/13/24 • 22 min
Have you ever had the privilege of watching someone do a difficult thing?
Today I share a personal story about my son, who chose to run hurdles during his final season of high school track. This was him trying new things and facing fears in the process.
Witnessing him taught me a lot about the process of learning and growth, and the importance of being attentive to ourselves and our lives.

The stories we tell about ourselves can make us feel smaller or less valuable, or they can make us feel big.
Today I share about how I'm reclaiming myself. Re-storying myself.
Last week, I changed a story I've had about myself for a long time; the opportunity was unexpected but the choice was intentional: to move from a story that made me feel small to one that makes me feel big.
This is about finding rooms where we can be our authentic selves. It's about finding the rooms where we get to be big, and invite others' big, and through that, change the world.

244 - Don't Curb Your Joy
Yoga Strong
07/11/24 • 22 min
Today I tell about something spontaneous I did this week, where I embraced joy and playfulness. That was about saying yes to myself.
This is an invitation to observe where you might be worrying too much what others think and curbing joy in your life, and where you may want to give yourself permission to say yes and do the things that feel like play.

245 - Introducing Yoga Teacher Circle
Yoga Strong
07/19/24 • 16 min
Last night in Portland, I hosted the first gathering of Yoga Teacher Circle (YTC), a community space for yoga teachers to come together, learn, collaborate, and support each other.
YTC is something I've wanted to create for a while. Because it's powerful to be in a room together. And it's important to create and gather in spaces where all voices are valued and respected, and where there is room for abundance and cooperation over competition. And this is something I want to experience in other cities, too.

Today we're joined by photographer and poet Katie O'Farrell, a dear friend of mine. In this expansive conversation, we talk about how the practice of finding joy in everyday life requires curiosity and bravery and how it can bring richness and excitement to our lives.
We explore how we can transform our relationships with others and ourselves when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable.
We also talk about the importance of surrending control and allowing life's flow to experience personal growth.

250 - The Power of Trying New Things
Yoga Strong
08/30/24 • 39 min
Today I did something big and wild, that I've never done before, and it's got me thinking about the importance of trying new things, and their impacts on us as teachers and leaders.
I wasn't in this experience alone. And it's also got me thinking about trust and support as we guide others. And about the importance of grounding and integration after trying something new.

252 - Creating Space to Celebrate Ourselves
Yoga Strong
09/19/24 • 30 min
Last week I returned from hosting a co-ed retreat on the Oregon coast, that I called Celebrate Your Whole Damn Self. And it was beautiful and full of magic and play and deep connection. And it was an experience that was co-created.
Today I talk about that, and of the power of creating spaces--where we can breathe, and be, and flow and celebrate more of who we are. And of the magic of coming together, where everyone gets to bring and share their gifts. And what can ripple outward.
