Derek Beres joins me this week to talk about the science behind the integration of our body and minds is wholly linked and how developing routines that train both results in greater wellbeing and health.
Derek is a multi-faceted author, music producer, and yoga/fitness instructor based in Los Angeles. He is the creator of Flow Play, an innovative program that fuses yoga, music, and neuroscience, offered nationally at Equinox Fitness.
His next book, Whole Motion: Training Your Brain and Body for Optimal Health, will be published by Carrel/Skyhorse Publishing in July 2017.
Derek is ACE, AFAA, Schwinn, and Kettlebell Athletics certified. A former world music magazine editor, he has written for dozens of publications, including MTV, Rolling Stone, Village Voice, Women’s Health, and Yoga Journal, and is currently a columnist for Big Think and 24 Life.
He leads teacher training modules in yoga philosophy and music, movement, and neuroscience at Yogis Anonymous, Strala Yoga, and Buddhi Yoga. He was also the Creative Director of the Tadasana Festival of Yoga & Music, and has been featured in the NY Times, LA Times, Vogue, Shape, Fitness, NPR, and numerous other outlets.
I was really excited for this interview because what Derek is teaching is fully in line with what I am constantly driving home on the show. That regular physical activity and exercise are essential to develop both the physical and cognitive energy to start achieving your big dreams!
