Raghubir hosts this lively audio laboratory for achieving and sustaining states of sublime creative insight. Imagine having the limitless energy and focus to act on your ideas! Beside playing great music and having informed and engaging guests, Raghubir will read from her two newly published books "Eleven Yogic Arts of Creative Living" and "Workbook" - both of which explore the confluence of art and spirit and engender the love of practice in both disciplines. Topics: yoga/meditation, the creative flow, handling deterrents/blocks, energy management, metaphysics, and macrobiotics and more!
One of my fave subjects is Crystallization; a process of pressurization which brings clarity and balance to the mind. Just like a chunk of coal can become a diamond, so can a dense mind become clear and radiant. One way to bring about clarity, is to have awareness around the foods we eat and how we think about foods in general; do you consider food as medicine? as an emotional pacifier? as recreation? Do you have digestive issues? Have you noticed a cloudy mind is directly linked to iffy digestion? These and other issues will be discussed in today's episode of The Eleven Yogic Arts of Creative Living.
Healing is another form of creativity ---and when you feel good, you'll have the energy and focus and the clarity of mind to produce the kind of work you want. If you feel sluggish and foggy, you won't feel like being creative. There is a direct correlation between how we digest our food and how we digest our thoughts and emotions. All this is to say, that Clarity is achievable in body, mind and spirit with consciousness around how we choose and process the food we consume.

EPISODE 9 - The Art of Healing - Finding Your Rhythm
"Where I come from, we say that rhythm is the soul of life, because the whole universe revolves around rhythm and when we get out of rhythm, that's when we get into trouble." - Babatunde Olatunji, percussionist
I decided to discuss Healing - with an emphasis on stress relief - because so many people I talk to are in need of tools to de-stress and ways to initiate healing patterns in their life. We get sick when we do not metabolize and process the food we eat and we also get sick if we do not metabolize and process our emotions. The body and the mind are so deeply interconnected, that one will often alert the other when something is not right. We have to pay attention to the signals to stay on top of when we are not in balance so we can DO something about it. Getting back into rhythm will set you on the path to healing.
This episode includes a recording of the intro to a class I taught on May 2 (zooming through Heartbeat House) on the Art of Healing - which is also the seventh chapter of my book, The Eleven Yogic Arts of Creative Living. It includes instruction on a powerful stress relieving Kundalini Yoga meditation with brings the body, mind and spirit into balance with the rhythm of the 8-count breath.

Episode 6 - The Art of Conceiving: The Nucleus of Creativity
The Law of Creativity - To conceive, flourish and deliver - is at the core of all creative endeavors, all relationships and in fact, absolutely everything that we do. In today's episode, we look at the Art of Conceiving; the point of the creative process when energy transmutes into ideas and then implants in our consciousness. After we conceive, we can work on the ideas (flourishing) and share them with the world (delivery).
For me and many other creatives, the conception state is the most exciting of the stages of creativity because it's fueled by anticipation, hope and possibility. But it's also a stage that we must get ready for; and that involves some elbow grease. By this I mean toning up the nervous system, aligning the physical body so that the channels of energy are free and clear, and nurturance of a neutral or meditative mind. If you impose your ego on this process, you will get in the way of what you can "pick up" and might just close down the process before it starts. When an idea takes root, provided that it has fertile ground in which to implant, it seems to have a life of its own and you are there to fan the flame...or water it, in this case.
This podcast features the music of Jamie Liddell who recorded Another Day, Little Bit of Feel Good, and All I Wanna Do between 2005 - 2008. I discovered him on one of those "customized" playlists back in 2012 through the song "All I Wanna Do" and immediately took to his complex blending of pop and soul. You can hear his musical heroes in his music and so its fun to listen to his layered and soulful songs. When I started recording this episode, his songs magically popped into my head. They speak about some of the very things I discuss in today's podcast...so I hope that you enjoy them. You can find Jamie Lidell on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6ASGmWCYupa0CXGtsDdYSI?autoplay=true (https://open.spotify.com/artist/6ASGmWCYupa0CXGtsDdYSI?autoplay=true)
I hope you purchase my book(s) --- both available on Amazon. You can get to them through www.elevenyogicarts.com (https://open.spotify.com/artist/6ASGmWCYupa0CXGtsDdYSI?autoplay=true)
