How to Study the Bhagavad Gita with Luvena Rangel


Listen Later

The Bhagavad Gita is a text that's fascinated generations of humanity. For yoga teachers, this text is extremely valuable for life. I will be exploring this text in more future episodes as it's impossible to capture its essence in just one episode.

My guest today is Luvena Rangel, the founder of curvy yogi. A body-positive yoga teacher, cultural appropriation advocate, teacher trainer & more...Luvena talks about the role of the Bhagavad Geeta in her own life as well as nuances of this text.

Luvena talks about it's not so much about studying the Gita. It's more about who you're studying the Gita from that matters. How not to get lost in a sea of translations and to work with master teachers who live the message of the Geeta every single day.

Episode highlights...
