Why Kids Yoga will Make a Lasting Impact

Hi and welcome to today’s episode of Ohm All Day, the podcast hosted by Ari engages herself. Today, we are speaking with the one and only Deven Sisler. She has been working with kids and families for over 15 years with something near and dear to my heart: yoga and acro yoga! I loved getting to sit down with her and get to know her in this conversation because she’s a seasoned professional and has an amazing, powerful message.

I hope you all enjoy it! Deven has always loved being around children. Growing up, Deven was the oldest of three children, and he always watched his little siblings when his parents were away. Deven is the oldest of many cousins, and his family has their own daycare for kids.

He was always around kids when he wasn’t in school, so he never lost touch with the younger kids. Even though most of us lost touch with kids after high school, Deven didn’t. Deven was that kid who played sports but still loved kids.

His academic pursuits in theater, creative writing, and fine arts during his undergraduate years, coupled with the knowledge that he would work with children in some capacity, allowed him to design a major unique to his diverse interests.

The turning point in Deven’s life came in 2007 when he found yoga and meditation; it not only helped him to heal his mind, body, and spirit but gave him a whole new world of possibilities in which to heal others.

As Deven, divine-being-in-the-physical, was also exploring a career in theater, his avenues naturally met while he was teaching kids’ yoga classes. In 2007, kids’ yoga teacher training were literally just beginning to arrive (the lengths to which Deven drove for very special’ kids’ yoga training just boggles the mind these days), and the stars began to align.

The journey from theater to teaching yoga, incorporated with his experience teaching children yoga, has influenced Deven’s teaching. “From there, I started to bring in the philosophy of yoga.

The concepts of ahimsa (nonviolence) and satya (honesty) became the foundation for how I taught in the classroom. That translated into how I would teach yoga teachers and how I would train them, bringing a whole yoga concept—not just a workout, not just a bikini body, not just handstands.” He started to teach different classes in different parts of New York City, such as acroyoga.

His suggestion from one of his students sparked the idea of writing a book. Rather, Deven focuses on giving everyone the ability to love—not even enjoy—not even understand—but to love, flow, and experience yoga.

Physically. Spiritually. Beres’ goal is for everyone to be able to do all of the yoga poses, and he strives to create philosophically sound, ethically motivated, all-inclusive, fun meditations, games, and activities that can be done every day, anywhere (e.g., in pajamas).

As we move our focus to the business end, Ari and Deven discuss the dynamics of narrowing in on a niche, and in Deven’s case, focusing around kids and family yoga.

Deven recounts dealing with imposter syndrome and the mindset shift from competition to one of enjoyment and playfulness. He then elaborates on the importance of “reveling” in your work, as he puts it, to show off every aspect of the magnetic positive energy that spreads to others.

Deven’s journey has made him an expert in many things: family yoga, acro yoga, and being a mentor in the field. He helps others find their unique voice and passion while giving them the tools to identify opportunities that align with their strengths. During our provider interview, you will hear about the many possibilities that go along with working with children.

The conversation also went into depth about the challenges entrepreneurs face when it comes to taking on parenthood and the rewards that come with owning your own business. Ari and Deven both shared intriguing insights on how they involve their children in their business at such a young age.

By instilling the basics of entrepreneurship and wellness early on. Which they both note has a huge beneficial impact on future generations.

A key point of the implementation of wellness trends among school-age kids today and the changes it has brought into the education system. The interview wraps up with the three core pillars of Deven’s teacher training programs when it comes to teaching yoga to children: the ethics of yoga, which she often refers back to the definitions of Yamas and Niyamas to help children understand what the ethics of yoga mean.

The second core pillar is nonviolent communication, which means consciously adjusting adult language to communicate in a way that the kids can understand. The third core pillar is empowering children to find their unique voice, or, in other words, to encourage each and every child to find their own personal way of communicating their opinions.

As you can see, when it comes to lessons on yoga, Deven shows a great deal of intense passion, especially when it comes to providing tools and lifelines to children through the resources yoga is entitled to provide during challenging times.

Deven’s journey is a great example of the intersection of passion, purpose, and business, with family and kids yoga at its heart. If you are looking to carve your path in the ever-evolving space called wellness, turn to Deven’s story time and again to inspire you to continue to make yoga accessible, to make it joyful, and to make it matter for all ages.

Apart from his teaching in his business ventures, Deven’s also built community and collaboration. His passion for connecting yoga teachers and educators is something all people understand through his network. His is in us to really influence him in his connections with his peers.

Supporting communities and people to be themselves, like because he really enjoys supporting other people, there were times when it’s been a little hard taught when I’m really lovely and creating destructive things, as you can see from my peers.

I’m Macia, which is the Asian people, because the faster I do whatever for me, the more I find it will have a vast impact on my teaching, from sessions to events to whatever, and I found that to be a recurring theme in a way that has been really helpful to me.

Deven also shares stories of collaborations, working in workshops more as a primitive technology nerd and as a marketing nerd with beautiful writers and reporters. These kinds of collaborations have greatly enhanced Deven’s own journey and benefited the broader community.

While collaborations often happen because somebody knows somebody or they happen fortuitously, they typically start with a pretty simple goal: I make something and you’re good at selling things, or you write well, or you have a quirky take on wellness.

Most are just kind of one-offs or require very little involvement, but they allow for some pretty cool interplay of skills. We talk about the shifting landscape of yoga in the West: a trajectory toward inclusivity and erasing some of the ancient barriers to practice.

Ari and Deven are both agents of this change. Deven sculpts culturally savvy, cross-referential nuggets of yoga that are plugged into the lives of diverse communities, fitting yoga to our time but also, always, to the ancient traditions and teachings.

We are chatting about how technology is assisting and maybe hindering the wellness industry. I ask how they are using it, and Deven goes on to tell me how they have filmed virtual classes and done teacher training online. They have found that the internet has been everyone’s downfall unless you use it in the correct manner.

Their brand’s belief is that it’s been great for them, and whenever they talk about wellness expanding when they teach, it is already happening and only going to get bigger.

The great part of the integration of technology, as they explain, is that yoga and wellness used to be very small, very counterculture, and for very specific groups; today, you can go online and can probably find people across the whole world.

The amiable, relaxing ambiance of the room as well as our energetic, relaxed state begin to change! As the conversation comes to a close, we take a major reflective turn as Deven shares the significant lessons he has learned in his life thus far on this journey.

These lessons range from the essentialism of resilience and adaptability to the supremacy of staying true to oneself. Deven’s own personal experiences of having challenges but being authentic resonated with me because oftentimes we see entrepreneurs seem like they never have any trouble doing what they love; however, that is not the case.

Deven also emphasizes how continuing learning and self-reflection can help a person’s growth. Because he is always a student of yoga and life, he looks at everything with curiosity and self-awareness in the hopes he will learn something and become a better person.

In the interview, he speaks about some of the resources, books, and mentors that have helped shape the way he teaches today and offers some recommendations for anyone looking for some inspiration or guidance.

Ari and Deven have adopted a forward-looking ideology in this clip, allowing them both to look at the influence that yoga will have on future generations and families. There is much talk about children’s wellness and yoga’s reliance on family-oriented mentality in their pursuits to spread the practice far and wide.

Deven refers to the benefits of physical activities in schools, and Ari continues to talk about how today’s world is shifting towards mindfulness and even offers that yoga may enter the mainstream of public schools. They also emphasize parents as partners in ensuring the well-being of the children in their care, and Ari nicely concludes with the message that the world is working towards.

So for the future, I think it’s a collaboration between yogis, therapists, educators, and everybody combining knowledge to make this a continuous growth, not only by giving them a tool set that works but also by continuing to give them a kit that allows them to fit on their own. You know what I mean. Like, ultimately, we have to grow.

We can’t just give them the same old, tired circus show. The episode ends with an inspiring closing message from Deven, who shares a piece of advice for aspiring yoga teachers and people generally wanting to make a difference in the lives of children and families.

Deven epitomizes the perfect blend of passion, personal purpose, and business and leaves us with a ‘bigger question’ of how we can not only serve our purpose but also monetize it and create benefits for us all in the realms of wellbeing and education.

All in all, the Ohm All Day podcast with Deven Sisler is an insightful look into the world of yoga and the role that it plays in the development of entrepreneurs and healthy communities.

His perspective stems from a background in theater that he used to laterally enter the world of yoga, combined with his current life geared towards family and kid wellness, which provides a great insight for listeners. The importance of joy and being your authentic self, and humanity gaining access to technology in our effort to continue, are a few of the narrative quilt squares that are woven into this story. This is a rich interview that applies to the many ways that listeners are interested in leading a well-lived life.

Stop Stretching with Yogi Aaron

Aaron, a Yogi and author, shares his unique perspective on how to heal your body through yoga, massage, and experience with personal body work for over 2 decades.

He had a kid, which got him out of his stretching routine and he could no longer stretch. He started the Stop Stretching Pulls channel to show people how to do functional yoga depending on how their bodies are. The body and living healthy have always fascinated Ari.

Coming from a family of healers and practitioners, Ari was introduced to kinesiology at the age of seven. Ari believes that people need to stop accepting surgeries as normal and use more common sense to prevent illness.

As a result of having taught yoga for over 30 years, Ari has developed fairly intense chronic pain from various injuries. An orthopedic surgeon told me I may have to get a spinal fusion in my lower back because of a disc herniation.

Hearing that made me realize that yoga is healing; it starts healing from the inside but also gets stronger as you increase your range of motion. As people get older, their flexibility may nosedive a little, but I believe yoga starts healing you internally first.

Ari commented that many people are like Aaron and that many people think they need to be flexible, but they don’t realize that it is actually not normal to be flexible.

Aaron counters that, like Ari, many people like her are not so flexible, and Aaron does not believe that a lot of people are as flexible as we think we are and that flexibility is not beneficial for everyone.

To sum it all up, Aaron and his unique ideas, techniques, and methods are proof to the world that we don’t have to live with pain in our lives. We can live without surgeries and prescription drugs. We can enjoy our lives and live them to the fullest. The author then begins to talk about all the necessary things, such as how to stretch?.

The speaker then mentions that everyday people will mostly want to stretch their faces to look beautiful and not look old. Every day, people want to stretch for two things: looking beautiful and looking young.

The speaker also mentions that not everybody thinks stretching is good for them, but it makes you feel good. Some of the things Ankha poses questions about are: how to put the movement in muscles; how do you get the muscles to work when they want, not just when you want them; and how to put the stress in joints when you need it, not just whenever you want.

The speaker also discussed how to utilize proprioception, which is the ability of the brain to transmit messages to the muscles. If a muscle loses the ability to contract, it also loses the ability to proprioception. As we start to age, the muscles lose proprioception, as if there were any trauma to them. Stress will also cause the muscle to lose proprioception.

The speaker is saying that yoga is not only about one thing; it is also about a healthy mood. The speaker states, “Elite gymnasts or something you can train, or if one ever has a stop gap of zero range, turn to their bodies; they bounce back super, super guaranteed.

The speaker is asking, Why teach yoga on getting your hamstring contracted, hamstring to strengthen, and glutes to activate? Isn’t that what most yoga is about? To sum up, the speaker stresses the significance of knowing the function of muscles and the possible injuries you could get from over-stretching.

The conversation is centered around the idea that yoga is changing or evolving. And just like everything else, it has to change. There are smart, intelligent places that movement should go but there are also places we should not be going.

People thought that yoga was moving to a smarter place of movement—movement that goes more towards this place where we belong, not where we’ve evolved into or where we’ve gone wrong. People are definitely moving away from what the actual purpose of yoga is. People are realizing the eight-step system.

They are realizing where yoga started and stopped and where it moved away from. Asana is one step out of the eight-step system. Asana is the eight-step system so as we saw in other cases, like when we went over the sutra, we got into his eight-step system.

Skiing is one step out of those eight steps. Hatha yoga really is the boot of all the yoga that we all do. Everyone asks. Don’t chuck people down the road; at least I had class before. Haskell sent those patterns that we had in me to sit in those round moves that are soundly up a road. Only write if your mind knows that there is no man.

You have a long way to go. You are already in the wilderness. It might be placed next to where we are going to stop moving with the rows of people. That hour, people are stopping the logical talks with an emmy. They realize this once in soccer classes.

Laughs at the one who volunteers to keep it. A queda will assist athletics because I rushed and my body expectancy in ingredients full of market easily sat there a need to add herbs and assembled stuffing ingredients into the. In the west and the east, it is the physicality, which is perfect and amazing.

At Western yoga alone, you are not trained in flexibility, and putting your foot behind your head is not in any yoga scripture. So it is wrong that we pursued attitudes and the cultivated desire to not be so Ashtanga personal. What is your “i‚i“? It has been this lipit and were not the entire this immediate satisfaction end, no Nirvana by typing would read people for if there were laid back on and hidden guns. It is and not likely yoga will help countless others try to take it.

Can you help in your practice of them as the practice of stage is where the prince is and the educational purposes in the principles of light on what now the fact of those applying the bonus of using the money that brings feels inquiry or enlightenment to someone not to understand this kind of violent by pursuing to be like?

Do you have spirituality for this destruction of Samadhi? What is not and so not peace and they ìomposue“ would almost surely already be definitely true. Striving celebrities who want èdegure“ between the Sanskrit that is lord of the it’s only role in Buddhism be technically accurate or not to all the yoga instruction and demonstrated the rest of the greatest semesters worth expression. Is this related to tent analysis?

The producer who is not totally sure it’s a stretch class is conducting or not covering all or some of this knowledge. The speaker is saying that you must get rid of the things that are in your way of living your purpose and moving beyond your self-imposed limitations.

What the speaker is saying is that yoga should be a practice of removing the obstacles between who you really are, what you really stand for, why you were put here on this planet and how you live your life on a path to fulfilling that unique destiny.

The speaker then goes on to explain the importance of forward folds and what a forward fold does: it awakens the energy in the spine and the deepest part of the human body. Even though the forward bends do have the same energy, the twins could get the same energetic fact even if one of them just brings their forehead to their knee. I think if they both bring their arms out to the side and do a heart opener, that will have the same energetic effect.

The speaker’s mission is to connect people and help people in unique ways, which is such a great way to deliver the message and will for sure make people feel better physically, mentally, and emotionally. They are dressed in yoga pants and a shirt that says, “Stretching feels good,” which is a great attention-getter because I do believe stretching does feel good, and our unique way of doing yoga will help you reach your goals. Find your flow and ease your inspiration.

Ari also offers teacher training, books, and online courses for those of you really wanting to get set up for success. The Yokai Club is a place where I offer free content and resources. At the beautiful retreat center Blue Spirit in Costa Rica, he leads a pain-free yoga retreat and yoga teacher training immersions.

The retreat center has three levels, 1, 2, and 3, suitable for everyone to attend as well as for those who want to embody this knowledge and pass it on to others. We’re really out to inspire hope and change people’s pain stories. So I want to encourage you to come to the Yoga Expo. It’s in January and March.

This January, Aaron is doing a workshop on that Friday; he’s doing a class on Saturday. I encourage you all to go to the expo. You can come for free; we can reschedule for you to come for free and the Yoga Expo will have free sessions going on.

In Ari’s video, they mention not just trying to fix what is broken but to analyze what has caused the issue and Rita made such a strong point about pain not always being there, but what has been causing the pain would always be there.

I found this really interesting because it’s easy to be blind to things like this because we just think about our pain and try to fix it, when in reality we should be fixing the issue of why we are in pain.

Sex, Love and Intimacy with Michelle Alva

In this Ohm All Day podcast, Ari introduces Michelle Alva, a renowned pelvic floor therapist and tantra workshop leader. Alva shares her journey of healing and transformation, focusing on the science of love and oxytocin, the healing hormone.

She lost her virginity at 14 and struggled with shame and guilt, leading to a lack of self-love. Alva discovered yoga, tantra, neuro-linguistic programming, and hypnosis, which helped her integrate her body, mind, and soul into her life.

Alva’s journey began with her own sexual trauma, through which she learned to love herself through yoga and meditation. She discovered that her shame and guilt caused tension in her pelvic floor, which she now uses to help others.

Alva emphasises the importance of compassion and intimacy in learning and connection. She also highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing women’s pain, which is often minimized in the media. Alva’s journey highlights the importance of understanding and embracing the pain women hold, including those related to menopause and sex.

Pain from sex can be a source of tension, trauma, and emotions, leading to shame and guilt. Women often feel inadequate as children, and their basic needs are not met due to parental expectations and an emotional lack of support.

Many women are emotionally retarded and suppress their emotions, leading to stress and a lack of breaks to feel and be with themselves. Pelvic floor physical therapy can help address this issue by helping women clear old memories and feel safe.

It is important to speak up and use your voice because your vagina and penis matter. By learning to breathe with your diaphragm, feel safe, surrender, and default to love, women can overcome their pain and improve their sexual experiences.
