Dominic Corigliano Part 2: The Trance State

PART 2 with Dominic Corigliano

A "Trance State" is a state of semi-consciousness in which a person is not self-aware and is either altogether unresponsive to external stimuli. It is also a state of mind that we can enter into through Yoga Practice. We're talking about Trance States with Dominic Corigliano in this Part 2 continuation of our Part 1 (Episode 65 - Listen on iTunes) conversation.

Whether you call it an auto-hypnotic state or a trance state, yoga can be used as a technique that we use to change the mind's ability to filter information, which can result in a more efficient use of the mind's resources. This form of self-hypnosis, or "Trance-like" experiences, is probably a state you're familiar with if you've ever been so absorbed in an activity, like yoga, that it actually takes a moment or two to reorient yourself back into the existing time-space continuum.

This is a beautifully deep and honest conversation had between old friends, who love and admire one another, and here we are inviting you into this intimate setting to sit with us.

Spending time with Dominic will transform your understanding of the practice of Ashtanga yoga. His perspective is absolutely unique and spans many generations.

We feel this conversation is also relevant to shifting sands in culture right now in the context of empowering women to continue speaking out, using their voice, claiming their power, and not standing down in the face of oppression or abuse.
