Today’s guest is Annie Carpenter. She is a pioneer in the yoga world and was also a professional dancer. She is a mentor and teacher to Nathalie along with many other teachers around the world. Annie is known to be the teacher of teachers. Annie shines some light on her background, telling us that going to a rehabilitation center after falling into recreational drugs ignited her passion for yoga. She describes that while working as a professional dancer in New York City, yoga was her way to relax; she wouldn’t have been able to work without it. Annie was a student of the late Martha Graham and danced for her internationally acclaimed company.  Nathalie feels that the importance of the yoga teacher is becoming lost as yoga evolves. Annie believes that it’s difficult to have perspective on self, no matter what we are doing. We then hear about Annie’s teaching style. Annie has been with her partner for fifteen years and talks about why she thinks her relationship has worked. She says that a big piece of it is

Elite athlete Joshua Stevens is alongside Nathalie in this episode, he is a professional mountain ultra trail runner based in Colorado. He is the Badwater Cup Champion, and even completed two Badwater events within thirty days of each other. Additionally, Joshua is a retiree from the Unites States Army after undertaking many deployments. Joshua takes us back to 1989 when he joined the army while still in high school. He says that because he had been so self-sufficient before joining, he threw everything he had into the army. Joshua then takes us through some of his challenges, including the first soldier that died under his watch and overcoming medically prescribed opioid.  After being told he would never run again due to breaking his neck twice, Joshua was determined to heal. We hear about how he found treatments for his pain on his own and why he no longer thinks of himself as someone who suffered these injuries. To finish off today’s discussion, Joshua informs us of his upcoming race plans and some thin

Today’s guest is John Joseph. He is the lead singer of Cro-Mags and Bloodclot, as well as the author of three books: The Evolution of a Cro-Magnon, Meat Is for Pussies, and The PMA Effect. He is a triathlete, leader in the plant-based movement, and long-time yogi. John describes his rough upbringing in New York City, which involved drugs, fighting, and getting shot. The judicial system eventually offered him to either go to jail or to the Navy. He chose the Navy and he tells us that this really caused his life to begin its change. Rastafarians taught John that when you eat an animal, you are ingesting every second of that animal’s pain. There are so many options today; eating animals is unnecessary. John instills that in yoga, you must do what the shastra says. We don’t change the shastra to suit our lifestyle, we change our lifestyle because it’s what the shastra tells us to do. Though your path may not be the same on John’s, he believes that they can both be paths of goodness that help the world. We fini

Lillian Savoie is an intuitive reading reiki healer who also does guided meditations and courses. She joins us in this episode and says that her main role is to help people connect with their spirits in order to find their passion in life. We have the power within ourselves to be our own healers. Still, Lillian says that this skill needs to be practiced regularly. She explains why many people are scared to begin energy healing and tells us that there is nothing to be afraid of. Energy healing gives us the ability to shift our moods, health, relationships, and more. If we’re a spirit operating in a human body, then we need to support our spirit first. Lillian speaks to the need for a support system before giving us an example of the work that she does with angels. This is a time of year when many people get some form of temporary sickness, and Lillian believes that this is a good thing. It is a purging of energy and is your body’s way of healing in the long-term. Your body is trying to teach you something

Today we have an amazing guest in Patrick Sanderson who is a filmmaker, actor, and model, who lives in Los Angeles. Having also spent a significant amount of time living in LA, Nathalie talks about how fun it was; she and Patrick haven’t experienced the typical negativity sometimes tied to the city. This episode explores tools for navigation changes, as well as remaining authentic throughout your journey no matter what.  We talk about his new short film Unintentional Community, the experience of going through film school and participating in film festivals around the country and London.  Nathalie says that despite all the changes that Patrick’s life has gone though in the past several years, he remembers who he is. Patrick talks about a humbling experience that has contributed to this positive mindset that is very inspiring. This event allowed Patrick to see clearly and reset his life. We discuss the amazingness of road trips and how he originally drove to California from Louisiana over three days with h

Joining us in this episode is Colin Hudon, the founder of Living Tea. Nathalie has a deep love for tea practice and meditation with tea, and Living Tea is where she gets most of her teas from. In this episode, we’ll explore tea ceremonies, mindful living, nature, meditation, different types of teas, subtle body energies, and how you can start your own tea practice. Tea as a way of life and tradition is something that is usually not understood in the West, and it is just beginning to make its way into the Western consciousness. Colin educates us about how tea is related to the study of nature and what makes tea a way of life. Colin believes that tea is a wonderful way to start your day because it brings calmness and focus. He takes us through his morning routine, including what types of tea he prefers to drink when preparing for the day. He also talks about different types of meditation. There is definitely a place for scientific studies on tea, but Colin says that a scientific study devoid of connecting wi

Kristin Ritter is our guest in this episode. She is the author of Spiraling to Wellness and the Founder of Nourishing Storm Studio & Café in Pennsylvania. Kristin recently contributed to the Shanti Yoga Training School, providing a wonderful presentation. The first topic we get into with Kristin is transforming obstacles. She is sure that everyone has an obstacle or two on their mind, but they are part of life. Fortunately, we have the ability to change them. Kristin recalls how she first got involved with yoga. Kristin talks about some difficulties she had when opening her café and describes the moment when she realized she had to fight for it. During this process, she discovered that the details of this stressful time didn’t matter. Nathalie says that we have to allow people to have their own soul evolution. This means there might be a point where you don’t want to be around somebody in your life that you still love. Kristin finishes with advice for those who are having trouble meditating. Suggestio

Today we invite you into our Shanti Yoga Training School, as we dive into one of the many concepts of yoga philosophy and how it affects our life. Nathalie teaches weekly zoom sessions to yoga students and teachers across the Globe, today you are our guest. Welcome to our training school.  Tapas is a big concept in yoga. Often translated as the “fire that burns within,” the discipline of tapas is one aspect that really resonates with Nathalie. She explains how the concept of tapas has assisted her through tough times. The fact that we are alive, have a human body, have a consciousness, and have an awareness is quite a miracle. We should never take it for granted; it should always be treated as a gift. Nathalie says that when you see life in this way, you begin to be very grateful for everything that you are. We all know somebody, or have been that person, who is never happy. They say they want something, they get it, but it’s not good enough. Nathalie reveals what to do if you’re in this mindset, including

This episode brings the seven-episode series about chakras to a conclusion. Brooke Baudot returns again to provide her expertise on Sahasrara, otherwise known as the crown chakra. Sahasrara is the lotus of one thousand petals. We each have a lotus flower that is unique to us, and it is the essence of who we are. Nathalie says that a helpful meditation practice is to close your eyes and begin to imagine your lotus flower. Journaling questions about your unique lotus flower: How does it look? How does it feel? This flower is continuously evolving. Brooke reads the balance characteristics of this chakra, and Nathalie jumps in to stress how important the ability to question is. The two then discuss why finding a connection is crucial, no matter how you refer to it. When you tap into a frequency that is so clearly tied to the seventh chakra, you can allow other people to participate in it. If you have access to this type of frequency, it is your duty to share it with others. This is what Nathalie has devote

It is said that if you can see it with your mind's eye, you can manifest it.  In today’s episode, Brooke Baudot returns for the sixth in a seven-episode series about chakras.

In this episode, Michael Harris joins us to talk about an array of topics. Michael recently interviewed Nathalie on his own show, and because Nathalie still has a lot of questions and wanted to share his story with her community, she invited him to Life on Earth. Michael began doing yoga in 1987 when he had a disease for which doctors were considering the amputation of both his legs. He talks about the improvements that he quickly saw from doing yoga and things he struggled with at first. Just before starting seventh grade, Michael spent ten days in a coma. This completely changed his life, and he pursued ways to numb himself at the time. He explains that all of these health concerns manifested themselves into Michael writing his first book. Michael has seen people reverse all kinds of diseases within a month of starting yoga. Nathalie adds in her thoughts on plant-based diets as well and the negative energy that comes with eating meat.   Nathalie’s new website: https://www.nathaliecroix.com/ Falling Up
