Riding the Wave: Yoga, Perimenopause, and Midlife Wisdom with Janet Stone

<p>Yoga isn’t just for handstands and highlight reels. In this episode, Darren Main sits down with legendary teacher Janet Stone for a candid, grounded conversation about perimenopause and how yoga can support this powerful life transition.</p><p>Janet shares her lived experience of the “zone of chaos” when old routines stop working, and offers a yogic toolkit for steadiness: breath practices to calm an over-fired system, strength and bone-supporting asana, meditation for navigating mood and identity shifts, and the medicine of community. They unpack the biology in plain language (declining progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone; brain fog; sleep changes; insulin resistance) and talk about practical compassion in the studio and at home. This episode also invites men and partners into the conversation so they can show up with awareness, respect, and actual support.</p><p>You’ll hear how Janet’s teaching has evolved to meet real bodies at every age, why “advanced” sometimes looks like Child’s Pose, and how reframing midlife as an initiation into elderhood can be deeply liberating.</p><p>✨ If you enjoyed this episode, please drop a comment, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs a little inspiration today.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>RESOURCES</strong></p><p>Janet Stone&#39;s Website: https://www.janetstoneyoga.com</p><p>Listen to <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/7oaQcTqp6TnWoCjNZRitki?si=4ZxdTq2LR-GppqHyl7m3fg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Janet&#39;s Music</a></p><p><br></p><p>Connect with Darren Main <a href="https://darrenmain.net/follow">https://darrenmain.net/follow</a></p><p><br></p><p>FREE STUFF!</p><p>FREE Meditation Course: Mindfulness for Busy Minds-  Anyone can learn to meditate—even you!<br><a href="https://darrenmain.net/free-meditation-course">https://darrenmain.net/free-meditation-course</a></p><p><br></p><p>FREE Book: Inspired Practice: Wisdom From the Heart of India:  A collection of quotes from Modern teachers and ancient texts.</p><p>https://darrenmain.net/inspired-practice-book</p><p><br></p><p>FREE Yoga Class: Join Darren for a Free online practice. </p><p>https://darrenmain.net/first-class-free</p>

Dispelling the Binary in Yoga

<p>Darren sits down with longtime friend and author Lucid Dawn to explore how binaries limit us far beyond gender and why yoga’s aim of union invites a more fluid, honest way of being. They unpack manufactured divides, the “dark side” of spiritual bypassing, and how practice helps us hold grief, rage, joy, and love without splitting ourselves in two. Lucid shares insights from their book Dispelling the Binary and a forthcoming course, and the two preview their roles as co-lead teachers in the upcoming Green Yogi Teacher Training.✨ If you enjoyed this episode, please drop a comment, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs a little inspiration today.RESOURCESJoin Lucid Dawn and Darren Main in The Green Yogi Teacher Training: https://www.mygreenyogi.com/gy200hourLucid Dawn: http://www.lucidyoga.com/Read: Dispelling the Binary https://amzn.to/4oB9TmmConnect with Darren Main https://darrenmain.net/followFREE STUFF!FREE Meditation Course: Mindfulness for Busy Minds- Anyone can learn to meditate—even you!

Practice Beyond the Postures

<p>In this Living Yoga episode, Darren talks with Vahid Coskun, a Washington, DC–based teacher and author of Practice Beyond the Postures. He shares his path from collegiate athlete to hot-yoga instructor and how observing students revealed common mental patterns on the mat—blame, guilt, people-pleasing, and outsourcing authority. We explore breath as the bridge between body and mind, why resistance is normal, and curiosity as the most honest intention.Vahid also reflects on growing up Muslim in Turkey, stepping away from organized religion, then returning to spirit; choosing change rather than being changed; and how teachers can honor students’ timing without losing depth.RESOURCESVahid’s Website: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbUpNejMwcEhEMVlBdzQ5bU5KVU02bkVOVWgzZ3xBQ3Jtc0ttM2llaGd1UlZrU1BxTE9EdktHREtKU0N3XzU0Y3Uyd1ZvX0pJbVlTMEdkRVZ0Z3NCRWZuQ0xOcVRzS3Y5akJBSzU2ZUtBcU1yM3RLLU1KRzlza0twb3k5bGx6WnRxclcxZV94bU5sdENaTmxvTGl4aw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellnessassemblyservices.com%2F&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.wellnessassemblyservices....</a>Read: Practice Beyond the Postures <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqblZWZ040N0xvdC1FUHVqV3I2N3pXR0h1Z2xYZ3xBQ3Jtc0tuVUlOZ0djOXFqZWxwRW5raG9fTHNXOWdwa1dqX1ZsVlEtY0Y2ZE9KM2ZFRXdXQTBQc1lIcXFsZnYwQmpod3BUZlhFQ1hwUUV5Vkw5WURpXzRFcjF3RjZnWUwwTno4MWM1eE96YVdOYkc5LWJuZ3R3OA&q=https%3A%2F%2Famzn.to%2F4pV4Dvr&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://amzn.to/4pV4Dvr</a>Connect with Darren Main <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa1g1VTVaWUJqQWNKb1JHNU1pc3lRVVdzUTE0QXxBQ3Jtc0tsTkZuVHduSlVVMWVXUV83YzJ5TDZITVh5SkFMVXFlVlVkR2VET3FSQVpFR0taeWtaVk9tcGRMS0liSloxemVIME5UcVg3emd2b1NtWXQzaTRFcy04cHB2aG5KNHRUN0xUaERETUoxeVM4aWZPMC1ETQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdarrenmain.net%2Ffollow&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://darrenmain.net/follow</a>FREE STUFF!FREE Meditation Course: Mindfulness for Busy Minds- Anyone can learn to meditate—even you!<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbm9QMEtvZUNOWDNyVkktSEFabFhUMFZ3Mkhmd3xBQ3Jtc0trYVA0dzZuV1FDZTVEdUtCTkZkNVpFYXRhV0tEaTV0SEVmU1diMWMzTmh2ZXVYYThhSFJsaGtBcWxacExtVmp1dExjd215dFZ6ZTZRRmZYYUI0LUUtRno3R1JoWHNsRkdCdEJaQ1lydEswTWhqRWJLcw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdarrenmain.net%2Ffree-meditation-course&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://darrenmain.net/free-meditatio...</a>FREE Book: Inspired Practice: Wisdom From the Heart of India: A collection of quotes from Modern teachers and ancient texts.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbFdkN1IxVU92VDFqQUhfaml0bmY5QlQ0UThzUXxBQ3Jtc0traVo0cWRtNU9CcVpnREo4bVZ2MzJ5YzFyd09uNS1kVUlJMVhKaVA5RFZQNERIaFBIbnJkeEkxM0RkRGl2dEM1LVp0amtySkpUZWQ1SVJqSXJtcUFhSEFkRUtEU0dHUTh3MmhsYWZvbm51Q3FNa2JEdw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdarrenmain.net%2Finspired-practice-book&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://darrenmain.net/inspired-pract...</a>FREE Yoga Class: Join Darren for a Free online practice. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa3JrdVBPWUEzQ3hyM3RKTXBydUtlZElWRkY0UXxBQ3Jtc0tuYlFXNldueWE4TDB4T2R0aVZsRmRnTGFYMVNSXzRKWnhqZkdDMzZYS3FLSXU1UzJYXzAzRFpiZy1Ddks4RlJkdVZSeXQwdmhWcHA5Zk81dU1HT1FJT29TbExwQVBhX09pbXdPRHVRbHA2ODF0TVNhNA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdarrenmain.net%2Ffirst-class-free&v=rbggxlZ8qnc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://darrenmain.net/first-class-free</a>✨ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review, follow, and share it with someone who needs a little inspiration today.</p>
