What if our current mental health crisis stems from something as fundamental as our disconnection from our own nervous systems? In this transformative conversation with yoga master Rod Stryker, we uncover why slowing down might be the most revolutionary act in today's hyperactive world.

Rod shares his remarkable 50-year journey from psychology student to Hollywood actor to internationally respected yoga teacher. The turning point? A profound realization that yoga was offering him the self-understanding he'd been seeking through academic studies – an embodied philosophy touching something deep within him that formal education couldn't reach.

As our discussion unfolds, Rod clarifies a critical misunderstanding: what most Americans practice as "yoga" is actually just "asana" (the physical postures). True yoga, he explains, is a quality of attention and presence that can happen with or without physical movement. T

Perhaps most valuable are the practical insights Rod offers about nervous system regulation through practices like Yoga Nidra – a state between meditation and sleep that provides profound rest without requiring the discipline of seated meditation. His upcoming book on this practice promises to make these powerful techniques more accessible to those who need them most.
