844. LA Diary
Thursday, 16 April, 2026
This past week in La La Land: Righto, I had a fun audition earlier in the week, where I got to play a bit of a meanie (and i dressed her in all pink, down to the nails). The audition came in at 7:04PM Monday night and was due by 11AM the following day. There’s a saying that you become “audition fit” in LA because you do so many auditions, but i think its because you have to get so good at the fast turn arounds. I dont mind it but in Australia you usually get a good week to prepare and learn audition sides (scripts), where as here, it’s so quick and to be honest, I dont think I’m putting up my best work. but I am throwing my hat in the mix, so I guess it’s just the way different industries in different places work. Found a cool new pod studio in LA to record from, it’s a film and audio podcast space in North Hollywood and its brilliant. Its called Bear Punch TV and if you’re ever in LA and need a pod space, its a goodie. They have multiple room options and have even built a fun green rooms for guests and hosts too. I’m leading a yin yoga teacher training in Beverly Hills this month, I’ve led retreats before but never a full blown teacher training so thats going to be exciting. I’m currently preparing a lecture on the chakras, koshas and kleshas. Here’s a little snapshot: CHAKRAS: These guys are like energy centres “Chakra” means “wheel” in Sanskrit. In yogic traditions, chakras are subtle energy centres in the body that regulate physical, emotional, and spiritual processes, and we have 7 of them, starting at the base with our root chakra and moving all the way up to the crown chakra: Root (stability, survival) red Sacral (creativity, pleasure) orange Solar plexus (power, confidence) yellow Heart (love, compassion) green Throat (communication) blue Third eye (intuition) purple Crown (spiritual connection) violet or white Fun fact, they say you can use “colour therapy” to wear these colours to tap into each chakras energy. KOSHAS: Next up we have the Koshas, they translate to sheath or layer, i like to think of these guys a bit like the layers of an onion, the deep you go, the closer you get to the true self aka ATMAN: Annamaya Kosha – physical body (food sheath) Pranamaya Kosha – energy/breath body Manomaya Kosha – mind (thoughts, emotions) Vijnanamaya Kosha – wisdom/intellect and intuition Anandamaya Kosha – bliss or deep inner peace KLESHAS: Kleshas come from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and describe mental afflictions or the root causes of human suffering. There are 5 main kleshas: Avidya – ignorance (misunderstanding reality) Asmita – egoism (over-identification with the self) Raga – attachment (craving pleasure) Dvesha – aversion (avoiding pain) Abhinivesha – fear of death Other that that, I’ve ben hiking, working on a new book idea, looking for a new podcast home and self submitting for acting gigs. So the LA grind is on. Oh and we also saw 2 rockets, apparently SpaceX launches satellites from California all the time, but we’d just never seen them before, pretty cool. I’ll add a pic! I’ve also got an app (it’s called Next Space Flight) now so I can track when they launch and watch it from out balcony. Pretty cool, especially if you’ve seen Project Hail Mary recently. Which I would give 10/10 stars so if you haven’t seen it, def pop it on your list! Big love, Lola See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
