The brain is a highly suggestive organ that can influence pain perception. ·      Empowering language and positive suggestions can have a significant impact on pain management. ·      The placebo effect is a real and powerful phenomenon that should be explored and utilized. ·      Movement is medicine and can help in pain management. It is important to keep moving and try different forms of movement. ·      Subtle interventions can have profound effects on the body and brain. ·      Finding joy in activities outside of studying or work is important for overall well-being.

Adam Keen hosts the Keen On Yoga Podcast where he engages in a deep level of discussion with Ashtanga yoga teachers as well as others involved in inquiry, wellness, diet, or simply people he finds interesting. The podcast is nonformulaic; there is no pre-list of questions, and the guests are encouraged into an open-ended chat in order to really get a feel for them and their approach to their subject. The emphasis is always on depth, with actual topics of discussion prioritised over the life-story or more familiar, surface-level questions we are used to hearing. To this end, the conversations are often quite honest and surprising. Approaching quickly towards one-hundred episodes, the keen on yoga podcast was started at the beginning of the first lockdown of 2021. We have now released one episode a week for the las year and are as enthusiastic as ever to bring you a wide range of voices to inspire and support your greater journey with yoga.
