0:00.0	All right. Here we are. This is Jay Brown Yoga Talks podcast. My name is Jay Brown. Welcome to you. Are you new? Are you somebody who's been around? What are you doing
0:24.8	right now? What is anybody doing right now? I imagine a lot of you are at home or are like people
0:31.1	going to work? Maybe you're having a walk or a run. I don't know what anybody's doing anymore.
0:40.2	Whatever it is.
0:42.2	I'm glad you're here.
0:44.2	Thanks for listening.
0:46.3	My guest today is Judith Hanson Lasseter,

1:54.4	walk earlier this week. And I was really just trying to tap into how I'm doing and if there's anything that I might do
2:06.5	to help my situation, to help feed myself what I need right now.
2:14.3	And I got this really clear message.
2:22.4	I got like a download, a very clear obvious message.
2:28.9	I was thinking about what are my inputs. If you remember, my friend Shara Carruthers was on the show some while back, maybe a year or so ago, talking about Ayurveda and we were talking about
