Episode 32 : Ondine Savage


Listen Later

Today I have the pleasure of chatting with my friend and mentor, Ondine Savage. 

Born in New Zealand, Ondine has lived and worked around the world in locations such as India, the UK and Spain, but now calls Australia home.

While in Spain, she committed five years to full-time Yoga study at the Dharmâlaya Ashram in Granada. Her training was orthodox and traditional in disciplines including Hatha Yoga, Vyayam Yoga, Vedic Dharma, Ayurveda, Meditation & Vedanta. Three years living in Rishikesh, in Northern India, gave Ondine experience in teaching classes while co-directing the establishment of the Yogâlaya Ashram and Monastery.

Today we chat about:

  • The 'all or nothing' personality trait
  • The nature of the mind
  • Ondine's experience living, learning and training in an Ashram for five years.
  • Self care and the common obstacles women face when making this a priority.
  • Service
  • Yoga in the West

You can practice with Ondine in person at her beautiful Sydney studio, Hatha Yoga Sydney or Online.
