by Kapwa Yoga LLC
Kapwa Konversations was started in 2020 by Paul Jochico as a show to amplify the voices of Filipino/x folks in the health and wellness space, and build community across the diaspora. Often being the only POC in the room navigating predominantly white spaces, this show serves to change that narrative and open up the conversation to talk about everything from cultural identity to imposter syndrome. We use the indigenous Filipino wisdom of kapwa, or shared inner self, to inspire and remember that we are all connected. We release episodes bi-weekly, featuring a different voice in the community, and offer bonus guided meditations every now and then in between episodes. Visit www.kapwa.yoga or @kapwa.yoga on Instagram to keep the conversation going. Maraming Salamat! Thanks!

Experience? Something else?</strong></li></ul><br/><p>We think this is the perfect season to reflect on time as we begin to close out this year and make space for what’s next </p><p><strong>If you feel called to be in community with us, please join us for a virtual workshop on December 16th from 7pm to 8:30pm EST. </strong></p><p>Tanvi and I will guide you through reflective and somatic practices to help you slow down, think spaciously, and share how you move with time in your own life.</p><p>You can expect to leave with reflective prompts, somatic practices, and insights from your own life that deviate from cultural scripts of "time." </p><p><strong>Here is the </strong><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMudOqtpzIqE9AfPc-BNkr82TPbW8FK-IdF#/registration" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>link to register</strong></a><strong>. </strong></p><p>We’d love to see you all there!</p>
