Featured Guest: Jaimal Yogis

Jaimal Yogis is a writer, teacher, and outdoorsman. His most recent book, All Our Waves Are Water, is a Harper Collins memoir that The BBC called "Best Beach Read of 2017" and The San Francisco Chronicle called "evocative…articulate, and genuinely funny."

Jaimal is also the author of Saltwater Buddha, a coming-of-age memoir about running away to Hawaii at 16 and eventually winding up at Columbia Journalism School. Saltwater was praised by The Times of London, translated into numerous languages and turned into a feature documentary film.

Jaimal's second book, The Fear Project, is a journalistic and scientific book featured in Oprah, Outside, and Forbes about how we can live more courageously and fully through mindfulness, sports, and relationships.

A graduate of Columbia Journalism school, Jaimal's writing has won several journalism awards and appeared in The Washington Post, The Atlantic, ESPN Magazine, and many others. A frequent speaker, Jaimal has presented at Silicon Valley companies, advertising agencies, and universities like UCSF and UC Berkeley. He lives in San Francisco with his wife, Amy DuRoss and their three sons.

Tranquility DeJure, March 12th, 2018.

0:09.3

Hello there, this is Kimberly Wilson, and welcome to the 416th edition of Tranquility

0:16.7

DeJure, recording today from the Pink Palace in Washington, D.C.

0:22.8

And excited to share with you a wonderful interview with Jymal Yogi's, and it's about his

0:28.2

latest book, All Our Waves Are Water.

0:32.3

So in this week's edition, of course, we chat about his latest book.

0:35.9

We talk about neuroscience and how we can speak

0:39.4

to our animal brain, benefits of free associative journaling, and advice for when we stumble.

0:50.6

So before we hear from Jymal, I wanted to mention a few things that are upcoming.

0:55.3

three-hour online virtual retreat. Yoga, so seated yoga, mindfulness, and then creative

1:42.2

play. So this whole idea of how do we kind of reconnect and

1:45.9

re-bloom and kind of give ourselves a little bit of water, maybe a little bit of fertilizer,

1:50.9

a little bit of love as we kind of blossom into this brand new season of spring, which is such

1:57.6

a delight. The trees are already starting to bloom here in D.C., so we've got some pink blossoms,

2:02.0

which makes me incredibly happy.
