Be prepared. If a Baptiste leader reaches out to you and tells you to “be in inquiry” around why Baptiste Yoga is not a cult, they might say…

But seriously, in this episode we talk about a real letter from a real Baptiste studio owner to their present and former teachers and community members, about how they should think, feel and respond to this podcast. This is not so much our response, as our point of view on why they decided to resort to name-calling and doubling down. We talk about what indoctrination is and how it happens to GOOD people. It happened to us! Also, why this type of defensive response is a tell-tale sign that this might be a cult. There, we said it. But you should use your own clear and critical thinking and decide for yourself. 

Also, we don't want your feedback, thanks! (PTSD around that so....)  But do reach out to us with your thoughts on our Instagram @yogacultspod we would love to hear from you!
