What does it mean to be psychic—and how do we learn to trust our intuition without feeling overwhelmed? In this episode of the Finding Harmony Podcast, Harmony Slater sits down with Lisa Campion, a master psychic, medium, and Reiki teacher with over three decades of experience mentoring healers and supporting sensitive souls. Together, they explore how psychic ability develops, the role of trauma and nervous system regulation in spiritual growth, and the difference between vibrational healing (like Reiki) and multidimensional practices such as quantum healing.

Listeners will learn practical tools to ground themselves, clear their energy field, and recognize their unique “truth signals.” Whether you’ve always felt a little “too sensitive for this world” or are simply curious about what your intuition is trying to tell you, this conversation offers inspiration, clarity, and a pathway into trusting the unseen.

What happens when the center of your practice—the teacher, the lineage, the external validation—suddenly disappears? In this deeply engaging conversation, hosts Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with Meghan Marshall, longtime Ashtanga teacher and founder of Mysore Yoga Philadelphia, to explore the evolving landscape of practice in a post-guru era. Meghan, affectionately known in South Philly as the “benevolent Ashtanga overlord,” shares how a stroke mid-practice in 2019 altered her perspective on yoga and opened the door to Pilates. Together, they discuss the parallels between Pilates and Ashtanga, the cultural dynamics of lineage, and the emotional upheaval many practitioners feel as the Ashtanga community shifts. This episode weaves humor, honesty, and deep inquiry into what it means to keep practicing—not out of obligation, but as a living, adaptive, personal commitment. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why so many practitioners are reevaluating their relationship to Ashtanga. How Pilates can illuminate blind spots in yoga practice. The difference between “quiet quitting” and making a public exit. How tradition evolves when the guru is gone. What it means to root practice in self-inquiry rather than external approval. Guest Bio: Meghan Marshall Meghan Marshall has been teaching Ashtanga yoga for over 15 years. A Canadian by birth, she now calls Philadelphia home, where she runs Mysore Yoga Philadelphia, a thriving Mysore-style studio. Known for her humor, honesty, and supportive teaching style, Meghan blends the rigor of Ashtanga with insights from her Pilates training, helping students connect to their bodies with clarity and compassion.

In this deeply reflective solo episode, host Harmony Slater addresses a heated debate currently circling the global Ashtanga yoga community: certifications and their legitimacy. Drawing from her own decades of practice and personal memories of studying with Sharath Jois, Harmony offers her perspective on what certification really means — and what it doesn’t. She invites us to step back from the noise of division and instead consider the larger crises happening across our world: climate disasters, hunger, war, and the erosion of human connection. With tenderness, honesty, and wisdom, Harmony explores grief, impermanence, and the essence of yoga as union—not fracture. Through stories, reflections, and quotes from Sharath, she reminds us that yoga is not a piece of paper, nor is it found in hierarchy, but in how we live, love, and treat one another. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why certification has never truly defined a yoga teacher How grief and loss are showing up in the yoga community The role of impermanence in practice and in life Stories and teachings from Sharath Jois that reveal his heart The importance of Yamas and Niyamas—especially Ahimsa—in today’s world How division distracts us from the crises that actually need our energy A call to action: turning practice into presence, compassion, and service Check out Harmony's upcoming events: https://harmonyslater.com/events FREE Manifestation Activation: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/manifestation-activation FIND Harmony: https://harmonyslater.com/

This conversation explores the lived experience of practicing and teaching Ashtanga as a visible minority, and what it takes to evolve a lineage without losing its heart. We examine how unspoken norms, lack of clear standards, and performance-driven culture can exclude people, and what a more inclusive, structured, and compassionate approach looks like in real rooms. What You’ll Hear Identity, visibility, and belonging in traditional Ashtanga spaces Why standards matter, and how “no structure” quietly creates inequity Mixed messaging around asana achievement vs yoga as healing Practical inclusion: bodies, props, pacing, and permission Decolonizing the mat and having necessary, uncomfortable conversations Teachers’ responsibility around food, body image, and modeling care Reframing progress when life, injury, or anatomy write the rules Community dynamics after leadership changes in Mysore Privilege, access, and taking practice to underserved communities Key Takeaways Clear standards protect students and teachers and reduce bias. Inclusion is practical: adapt sequence, use props, cue options, honor cycles. Your value is not your vinyasa. The practice is a lab for self-knowledge. Community health > cults of personality. Build learning organizations, not pedestals. About Our Guest Jamaica-born and South Africa–based, Shakira Bouwer is an Ashtanga yoga teacher authorized in Mysore. She began yoga in 1999 while working in corporate finance, later earned an MBA, and ultimately followed dharma into full-time teaching. Her work centers on accessibility, decolonizing the mat, and creating spaces where every body can practice with dignity.

What if your biggest problem… isn’t actually a problem at all? In this enlightening conversation, Harmony and Russell welcome back longtime friend, acupuncturist, and author Dr. Jagdeep Johal. Together, they explore how unresolved threat—not personality flaws or psychological issues—drives our sense of suffering. Dr. Johal discusses his new book, Ease: Unwinding the Biology of Threat, which reframes trauma, burnout, and stress through the lens of the nervous system. From the body's threat-response system to the illusions of the left brain, this episode offers a paradigm shift: healing isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about remembering your capacity for ease. In this episode, you'll hear: - Why trauma isn’t always a “big” event—it can be the accumulation of everyday stress - How the nervous system registers threat even when we’re not consciously aware of it - The three phases every cell moves through: Threat, Motion, and Ease - Why the left brain constantly lies to us—and what happens when we quiet it - The “threat bucket” metaphor and how our bodies store unresolved tension - The difference between actual safety and perceived safety - How acupuncture, spinal energetics, and spontaneous movement restore ease - Why doing *nothing* might be the most healing thing of all - How Dr. Johal’s long COVID experience shaped his understanding of illness and healing - What dogs, trees, and artists can teach us about true ease Guest Bio: Dr. Jagdeep Johal is an acupuncturist, teacher, and author who integrates Chinese medicine, somatic healing, and Buddhist philosophy. For over two decades, he’s helped clients reconnect with the intelligence of the body and restore nervous system regulation. His latest book, Ease: Unwinding the Biology of Threat, offers a refreshing, practical, and poetic exploration of trauma, healing, and selfhood. You can find him at www.drjagjohal.com.

Harmony and Russell sit down with Paul Bramadat — professor, anthropologist, and longtime yoga practitioner — to explore the spiritual, cultural, and deeply human dimensions of modern yoga. Paul, who began his yoga journey in Harmony’s studio in Victoria, BC, now returns not as a student, but as the author of Yoga Lands, a fascinating book that blends memoir, ethnography, and cultural critique. Together, they dive into the real reasons people are drawn to yoga: not just for fitness or flexibility, but as a response to suffering. From the spiritual to the sociopolitical, this episode weaves personal stories and academic insights into a rich discussion of cultural appropriation, inclusivity, identity, and the subtle energies that shape how we relate to each other in the yoga room. This episode is essential listening for yoga practitioners, teachers, and anyone who’s ever felt the transformative pull of the practice — even when the reasons are messy, complicated, and rooted in pain. 🔍 Topics Covered: The origins of Paul’s yoga journey—and his unexpected return as a scholar and teacher How suffering draws people to yoga across cultural and class lines The subtle politics of yoga spaces in North America Cultural appropriation vs. respectful integration of Indic traditions The rise of yoga among women and what that says about modern spirituality Differences between Canadian and American views on wellness and healthcare How yoga spaces function as secular sanctuaries The “erotics of proximity” in yoga rooms—and why we need new language for it What it means to honor yoga’s roots while making space for modern evolution Why inclusivity matters—and how to create truly welcoming spaces 🧘 About Our Guest: Paul Bramadat, PhD is a professor of religious studies at the University of Victoria, specializing in the cultural and political intersections of religion and public life. He is the director of the Centre for Studies in Religion and Society and a long-time yoga practitioner. His new book, Yoga Lands: In Search of Practice on the Mat and in the World, brings academic rigor and personal insight to the complex and beautiful messiness of modern yoga culture.

They explore the complexities of living with ADHD, autism, and sensory sensitivities, and how these experiences can manifest in daily life—especially for highly sensitive individuals. Key Topics Covered: The meaning and nuances of neurodiversity (beyond labels and diagnoses) Executive functioning, rigid thinking, masking, and sensory overload How somatic therapies like TRE (Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises) and brainspotting support trauma healing The difference between neurotypical and neurodivergent experiences, and why “normal” might not exist at all Raquel’s perspective on labels and diagnosis—why she prefers to avoid them The spontaneous tremoring response and its impact on healing The overlap between ADHD and autism, especially in women Managing everyday challenges like disorganization, distraction, and overwhelm How Raquel organizes her spices alphabetically—and what that says about her brain!

She discusses why spontaneous tremoring can be a powerful reset for the nervous system and how somatic work differs from cognitive therapy by engaging deeper brain regions like the limbic system and the brainstem.
