On this next season of the Geeta Girl Podcast, we focus on Dharma. Dharma in its most simplest definition is your duty. However, it is far more complex. It is doing the right thing at the right time given the context of your situation. In the first episode of this season, we talk about the complexities of doing your dharma and help answer the question, how do I know what my dharma is and how do I know if I am doing the right thing? Here’s the good news- Krishna wrote you a cheat sheet in the Bhagavad Geeta and we’re going to help break it down. Check out our first podcast of the season, “Geeta Girl Discusses Dharma Decisions Decisions Decisions!”

Is this your inner dialogue while you are meditating? “OMMM…OMMM….oooh, I think I’ll order Thai tonight…okay, back to the breathing…OMMM…OMMM…oh, and I need to remember to set a reminder to buy dog food…FOCUS!”. If this sounds familiar to you, don’t worry, you are not alone. From the unique perspective of the Geeta, we discuss why meditation is tough for many of us, and why you need to stick to it anyway. We discuss why it’s an essential tool in combatting your anxiety and perhaps, most importantly, in soaking up every bit of that Geeta knowledge.
Check out the last podcast in this latest season’s focus on combatting anxiety “Geeta Girl Discusses Free Your Mind and the Rest will Follow”.

Picture the person with whom you have the most challenging relationship. Do you have their image in your mind? (No judgment if you pictured them before you even finished reading the sentence.) Now what if you were able to make that relationship less difficult? Would your life be less stressful? In this podcast, we discuss Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT). Lavina Shamdasani, a student and teacher of CCT shares how to utilize this technique to see God in everyone. CCT is based on the belief that we are all born with innate compassion and tapping into that compassion for ourselves and others can take us one step closer to a life of happiness and less suffering. And who doesn’t want more of that. Listen to this podcast for practical tips on how to live a life with more compassion, empathy, and kindness - towards yourself and others.

Do you need to believe in God to have faith? Not necessarily, according to Krishna. Surprised? But you do need to have faith in the teachings of the Bhagavad Geeta. How do we build that faith? And what is the role of that faith in managing our anxieties? In this podcast, we outline the specific tips described in the Geeta to build our faith in God and in the teachings of the Geeta. It’s a lot simpler than you think. You just have to have a little faith.

Did you know that Krishna invented the rave, the all night dance party? Krishna is a lover of joy and an important part of his teachings in the Bhagavad Geeta is how to experience true happiness. But how can we experience true joy if we are feeling anxious? Even before the pandemic, we have all felt moments (maybe a lot of moments) of fear and worry. In this third season, we will focus on how the Bhagavad Geeta is an epic therapy session from Krishna to Arjun (and us!) on how to deal with our panic attacks, anxiety, and fears. In this first episode of the season we talk about how we can let go of all of it.

What comes around goes around, right? We all know there is that invisible karma scale. If someone does something bad, then something bad will happen to them, right? And if that someone does something bad to us, well, we have a right to help tip that scale, correct? Get our revenge. Help even things out. Are you fantasizing about it right now? Well, stop! Because even thinking about it costs us some karma points. In the last episode of this second season, we will talk about how that scale gets balanced—the good deeds and the not so good ones. Spoiler alert: relax, the universe will take care of it, and take care of you.
This is our last podcast of the second season! Thank you to all of you who have listened and supported us through TWO seasons of the Geeta Girl podcast! We will be back in the fall and look forward to connecting with you all then. For those of you who want your Geeta Girl content sooner, we will be dropping a few videos on our social media in the months between so stay tuned (and be sure to follow us on social media - links below)

Have you ever had a family member that you couldn’t get along with? A relative who was, um, difficult? Most of us are no stranger to family conflicts. In this podcast, we invite Karen Passalacqua, a Family Constellation Facilitator, to help us discuss how we can deal with the inevitable family conflicts that come our way in a more constructive manner, creating positive karma for ourselves (and more peace in our lives).

If the system of karma works, why do some people seem to be getting away with doing bad stuff? Does Hinduism allow us to ignore the difficulties of others and say “not my problem, it’s their karma”? And whose karma is to blame for COVID? We discuss these and other difficult questions in this episode. This podcast is an enlightening conversation between Sharmila and her dad, her first Geeta teacher. She asks him all the tough questions about karma we all want to know and listen as he shares the non-sugarcoated truth.
