Today I have something super special to share with you.

I'm going to share with you a real conversation that I had with a local yoga instructor here

She also teaches yoga on YouTube, so you can check out the link to her channel in the description.

Vanessa: Gayle teaches yoga, and she talks about her journey, getting into yoga, and

I'm sure you also have hobbies and passions and interests, so it's a good way to hear

how she talks about it, and to try to imitate that style of speaking, because we all want

to talk about our passions and share them with other people.

Vanessa: Throughout the conversation you're going to see little subtitles pop up.

These are for vocabulary expressions, phrasal verbs, and also some special pronunciation.

After the conversation with Gayle, you're going to also have a vocabulary lesson today.

You're going to see my husband, Dan, and I explain these vocabulary expressions in detail.

This is a really great way to engrain them in your memory, and I know a lot of you have

difficulties with remembering words after you've learned them.

So, hearing them in the conversation with Gayle is a good first step, but it's also

great to hear us talk about it later, give examples, make it more vivid in your mind.

Vanessa: So, you're going to watch that vocabulary lesson, and then you're going to watch a phrasal

This grammar lesson is super helpful for helping you sound like a native speaker, because we

Vanessa: Finally, we're going to practice some in-depth pronunciation so that you can

speak exactly the way that Gayle and I did in our conversation.

Are you ready to hear a real English conversation?

If you enjoy this lesson today I hope that you can join the Fearless Fluency Club, which

You'll get information and lessons like this every month.

About half of the material, or actually less than half, maybe a third of the material,

but you'll get an even longer lesson sent every month when you join the course.

Vanessa: We're going to talk about yoga and all of your experience with that, and really

Then we'll go on to what's happening now.

I was living in New York City at the time, pursuing a career as a professional freelance

Although, you know, everything kind of ... It's a lot about your vision and being mindful

And so, they kind of weave together in some ways.

One thing that I always remember, and, I think, one of the funniest things, is my first class

when the teacher said, "Pay attention to your breath.

I thought, "That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

Like, I'm here to move and do some cool poses.

Gayle: Then as I progressed in my yoga, I just realized like, breath is everything.

So, now I focus on that, or I try to focus on that, more than anything.

It's really a powerful healing mechanism.

It's part of our sympathetic nervous system, so we'll breathe.

I mean, if we tried to stop breathing we'd pass out and then we'd breathe again.

But still, there's ways of like, breathing more fully, breathing more mindfully, that

Vanessa: That's funny that at the beginning you thought, "What is she talking about?"

Vanessa: Especially if you've never heard that kind of phrasing before.

I feel like, for me, whenever they talk about breathing in yoga class, I realize, "Oh, I

have been breathing all this time, all day, and haven't been thinking about it."

Then when you start to think about it maybe it's just that physical element, but I kind

Once you focus on breathing it's not hypnotic, but I almost feel like I'm in the zone or

like, when you're thinking about your breath you can focus more on what's going on, at

Yoga is about union, and the union of opposites complementing each other.

So, the breath is composed of two opposites, right?

The exhale and the exhale, and it's kind of got an ebb and flow.

So, like, if you sit by the ocean or by a waterfall when you have that kind of constant
