Yoga(ish): Moon Joy, the Overview Effect, and Why Astronauts Sound Like Meditators

Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description

What happens when two yoga teachers fall down a NASA rabbit hole and can't stop thinking about non-duality, The Overview Effect, and Grandmother Moon? This episode of Yoga-ish — our more personal, less technique-focused podcast — is exactly that kind of conversation.


Yoga-ish is where Jason and Andrea talk about their actual lives: what they're reading, watching, thinking about, and how all of it connects (loosely) to yoga, mindfulness, and the work of being a human.


We covered so much this week, including:

- Artemis II & The Overview Effect — and why astronauts returning from space sound a lot like meditators coming out of deep practice

- Christina Koch's transmission from the far side of the moon and what "moon joy" actually means

- Our review of Project Hail Mary + what we're reading

- Neurodivergent kids, intrinsic motivation, and letting go of the sticker chart

- 10 years of Yogaland — and what's coming next
