Episode 8: Kelly O'Roke - Ashtanga Yoga, Your Gunas, Science, & Philosophy


Listen Later

Kelly O'Roke is a mother, an ashtanga yoga teacher and owner-steward at Om Shala yoga studio in Arcata, California. She is a talented photographer and a powerful thinker. Kelly holds a degree in Engineering Physics and as a result, this conversation ranged in scale from the sub-atomic to the cosmic. From the secular to the sacred. We talk about her role in filming the documentary, Mysore Yoga Traditions. Kelly opens up about her eating disorder and how her yoga practice freed her of those unhelpful impulses, we delve into yoga philosophy and history, gurus and aghoris, physics and chemistry, and between the lightness and the dark. This is a show of opposites and paradox, as we linguistically dance around truths beyond language. Visit Kelly's photography website at www.kellyoroke.com.
