Dr. Trujillo’s Comments

My conversation with Tracee Stanley about her book Living Ritual included lots of ideas about how to bring the sacred into our daily lives. I enjoyed the many ways that we discussed bringing our yoga practice off the mat and into all of our activities. As Tracee said: “Yoga is life, it’s a way to live life”. I found our discussion of the inner fullness that is accessible to everyone to be particularly rich. Tune in for some ideas about infusing the sacred into things you do everyday.  

The Yoga Hour Team Comments

This conversation will offer the listener the opportunity to connect with Living Ritual, to learn about ways to incorporate micro rituals in your day, and to note ways that you already keep rituals. The 4 life aims, or purusharthas, is a perfect way to bring the sacred into life through the power of these ritual practices. Guest Tracee Stanley illuminates the power of ritual through her writing and in this conversation with Dr. Trujillo.
