What is your relationship with AI?

Do you use it? How do you use it? Does it create more time for you to do more things for you? Or does is make you want to do more and achieve more because of the speed you can achieve things at now?

Where ever you sit with this new unfolding technology we are here today to bring up the important topic of balance and self enquiry around what place it has in your world, and knowing if that serves you.

We all know it's important to keep up with the times, so as we do that, how do we also know what balance looks like along the way?

We encourage you to ask what does an intuitive balance look like, so that we are to use AI for meaningful progress as opposed to dumbing us down, and doing everything for us.

Here at the Press Pause Podcast we want you to reflect on how you can have a healthy balanced relationship with AI, while also living to your greatest potential, as well as maintaining self care and personal development.

In this episode we chat with yoga teacher and studio owner Tracy Jenkinson about all things yoga, wellbeing, connection and inner calmness.

Tracy shares how she first walked into a yoga class 18 years ago as a complete beginner, not even knowing if yoga was “her thing.” Before long, her journey led her to living onsite at Kawai Purapura while completing her yoga teacher training.

She is now the proud owner of At Yoga and is passionate about helping guide others through their own journey of discovering the positive impact yoga can have on both mind and body.

Tracy’s unique and welcoming approach to teaching makes yoga feel accessible for anyone, no matter their age, experience or ability. She loves helping people find inner calmness, connection and space to simply slow down and reconnect with themselves.

In this conversation we dive into:

• The benefits of yoga for everyday life
• Different styles and types of yoga
• How beginners can get started
• Why yoga can become such an important daily resource
• The connection between movement, breath and mindfulness

A beautiful conversation full of warmth, wisdom and encouragement for anyone curious about starting their own yoga journey.

Regulating yourself when triggered is a practice of awareness.

We can’t be perfect all the time, we need things to happen to give us these opportunities of growth.

We are not therapist and do not claim to have the answers, we are more coaching simply sharing what we do and how we enquire within ourselves.

Your lifestyle gives you answers and can really help you with the answers you are seeking.

• Do you need more rest?
• Do you need more nutrition?
• Do you need to revisit some patterns that you’ve unconsciously taken on board while in your own kind of survival mode as a kid?

We all have the freedom to choose how we learn from our own experience while we are triggered.

Tune in with us for this exciting episode and find more tools to use to approach the continuous learning of life.

Do the inner work on yourself, don’t feel guilty if you’ve acted out of character. Simply enquire and let the wonderful learning and understanding of shadow work unfold. It's not about who you are being but who you are becoming that can make all the difference in how you become more responsive.

Toxic overload often comes from the small, everyday things we use without thinking—cleaning products, personal care, sprays, and household items. Over time, these can build up and impact our wellbeing.

This episode is about awareness, not overwhelm. There are simple ways to make changes, like swapping chemical sprays for an environmental cloth, or choosing more natural products for your body and home.

You don’t need to change everything at once. Start by noticing, get curious, and choose one small thing to shift.

Self-care isn’t just what you add in—it’s also what you reduce.

Today we felt the need to share our Emergency Go To's when it comes to Intuitive Soul Care Alignment.

Here's some examples of when you might use emergency go to's:

1. When you get to the end of the day and you feel you haven't done anything for yourself?
2. When there's a lot of stress or busyness and your feeling overwhelmed.

Having you emergency go to's are crucial to make sure you don't burnout, and when you know what they are without even thinking, they can really support you.

Today we thought it was rather relevant to have a conversation around what really matters.

This is different for everyone and doesn't always stay the same. It's important to remember out of all the priorities that occupy our mind, what is it that matters most?.

When things don't go the way you'd hope it would or when life gives you curves balls, usually the things that really matter aren't tangible, but who you are being, the memories, or the simple things that are provided day to day. Hold close what matters to you, this will remove stress and unnecessary reactive ways we can respond to the world around us.

Join us as we talk about why it's so important to grasp this and have a clear picture in your mind for what this means to you.

Today we felt it was very important to discuss the topic of Navigating Fear.

We live in very interesting times, and it's more important than ever to understand how powerful you are, know your power and to use it wisely.

There are uncertainties all around us and can have the possibility at coming at us from all angles.

So ask yourself, what grounds you? what foundations do you have in place to keep yourself focussed, prepared and be in a solution based mindset, while being aware of your energy and how you operate.

If you are aware of it or not, the powers that be love to keep us in fear to have us more easily controlled. Regardless of what you are facing, find ways you can use these circumstances to grow, prepare and come together with the community around you.

We don't encourage you to ignore your surroundings and do nothing, however we encourage you to use it to think smarter, pull from your resources and really start to becoming conscious of the world you live in.

1. What community can you plug into?

2. What decisions can you make today to prepare for a few weeks/months ahead.

3. How can I rely more on myself, up-skill and not just rely the mainstream system.

How can you train your mind, brain and soul to break out of this 5 sense reality to embody what you are truly capable of?

Perhaps it's meditation, movement, sounds, connecting conversations, community, good foods, clean water and positive dialogue. Find what works for you.
