Join us in this enlightening episode as we dive into the profound theme of Abhinivesha, the fear of death, as outlined in Yoga Sutra 2.9. Discover how yoga and mindfulness can help us embrace the impermanence of life, live fully in the present moment, and transform our relationship with the inevitable. 

Farin and Heidi share practical tips for yoga teachers on weaving the theme of death into classes, encouraging students to release fear and resistance while fully engaging in each breath and posture. We'll also discuss the discomfort and taboos surrounding death, exploring how facing and accepting this reality can lead to deeper peace and presence.
