I talk to Ryan Spielman and ask him some silly questions.

Ryan is a therapist and yoga teacher. He has trained as an integrative humanistic counsellor. He has been an advanced practitioner and teacher of Ashtanga yoga since 1995.

He has studied self-exploration, mindfulness meditation, eastern philosophy and group therapy occasionally in highly unconventional settings.

He leads regular weekly groups and week-long workshops focused on self-awareness and authentic communication.

He is the co-founder of Wise Studies, an audio library for contemplative teachings. He writes and performs philosophical comedy songs.

Ryan has been a dedicated practitioner of Brazilian jiu-jitsu for the last five years.

I read the preface from The Dogs and the Fleas By One of the Dogs as written by Frederic Scrimshaw which I thought was incredibly powerful and relevant even though it was written in 1893. Find the whole book here:
