The Power of Yoga is Much More than Power Poses

Guest: Samin Nosrat, author of “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat” Following a recipe is a worthy goal, but is it really knowing how to cook? Chef Samin Nosrat says the alchemy of cooking is all about knowing when a dish needs more salt, a squeeze of lemon, or a little more heat, just by the look, smell, or taste of it. Helping others understand that is the goal of her new cookbook, “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat.” In it, Nosrat boils down her vast experience from the best kitchens of the world – including training with legendary chef Alice Waters at Chez Panisse – into the four essential elements of good cooking: salt, fat, acid, heat. Master them and Nostrat says you’ll be able to make a delicious dish in no time, without a recipe.

Guest: Dan Brulé, author of “Just Breathe: Mastering Breathwork for Success in Life, Love, Business, and Beyond” If you stop inhaling and exhaling for too long, your body shuts down, so it’s amazing how little we think about it. Unless you’ve got an illness like asthma, most of us don’t pay any attention to the act of breathing. As a result, we’re missing out on something really powerful, says Dan Brulé. He’s one of the world’s leading experts on breathwork and an advocate for taking time daily to practice breathing. Why something so instinctual would require any practice is the next question. The answer is in Brule’s new book, “Just Breathe: Mastering Breathwork for Success in Life, Love, Business, and Beyond.”
