My guest for this mantra-filled podcast is Cathie Caccia. Please read more about this “yoga superstar” below. Please also see below for the links to her website, with information about retreats and classes you can get involved in.   If you are one of the lucky people listening to the episode prior to October 18th, 2019, please see below for a link to the retreat with Rodney Yee and Colleen Saidman Yee. There are NINE mantras for this show.  They are: 1. Being a “yoga superstar” is a bit of an oxymoron (yoga is for every-body). 2.  Yoga is about I'm doing rather than doing. 3. A major benefit of yoga is being connected to one's authentic self. 4. Finally - a message about getting unstuck:  “don't calcify the conversation, listen”. 5.  We all need to be heard, seen, and hopefully understood (listen to others). 6.  We need to see ourselves, listen to ourselves, and hopefully understand ourselves (listen to self). 7. Breathing can create physical, spiritual, and mental healing. 8.  We are all radio stations broadcasting a signal; what vibrational seeds do you want to germinate? 9.  Creating a mantra for the breath (in and out) is so easy, yet so transformational.
