Sesa O’ Connor

With the influx of technology and constant distractions, are people less connected with their true selves? Has our culture forgotten the intrinsic value of sitting still? Today on the Spiritual Spiral, I'm excited to welcome the wonderful Sesa O' Connor to the show. Sesa is a yoga teacher currently living in Wilmington, NC where she teaches yoga and meditation at Yoga Salt. I met Sesa almost five years ago when I took a teacher training at Yoga Salt in Los Angeles and I was instantly drawn to her warm and heartfelt energy, her sense of humor and encouraging attitude. Sesa and I talk about the impact of tech on the yoga community and how the lockdown has impacted the way she teaches.  We discuss the pros and cons of online yoga and why she offers her classes "by donation." We talk about the value of sitting still and connecting with your true self and why she believes social media is a great disruptor to true "connection." I also wanted to ask Sesa about a post she wrote on Instagram a few weeks ago that received quite a bit of backlash. While I felt the post was educational and helpful, we discuss the reaction and her intentions behind the post and why there may always be the potential for words to be taken out of context especially on social media.
