Inner Explorations with Angela and Victor: A Yoga Podcast

We're sharing a three-part video conversation from between Victor and Blake about 16th century painting The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch. Where other commentaries on this incredible painting refer to the stunning detail and premonitory themes, Victor approaches the painting largely through the lens of inner transformation. Victor and Blake explore this painting in-depth and touch on the Bosch’s method and style and the more straightforward social commentary on display, but they also chat about what the artist may have been communicating about our internal world and process. These were originally recorded in 2021.

This episode is a true exploration, with no pre-selected topic, we were free to consider what was fresh. We journey through our tendencies to see, follow, and repeat forms, living in these body, digesting what we are learning rather than grasping a "take away" meal, making yoga (or anything) your own, receptivity, the masculine's most important work of supporting the feminine, an attitudes about practice at different stages of life. I hope you find nuggets of wisdom that you can take in and digest to fuel your own inner explorations.

This episode is all about Greece, the island of Lesvos, and the valley of Eftalou and how in the world Angela and Victor landed there in the first place. As many students of A&V know, the duo has been teaching workshops from Greece for decades, but the winding story about how that dream became a reality is full of mystery, a castle, a very particular light, roman coins, eroding olive groves, earthquake architecture, and a called-off wedding. It's a great story. 

Visiting A&V in Greece hasn't been possible through the global pandemic, but they have announced fall workshops. See the links below for details.

In this episode we talk about sports, Olympic athletes, and embodiment for achievement at high levels, the limits of our anatomy, whether or not a structured practice is useful, and so much more. This conversation was something different entirely than what I had planned, and it is one of my favorite conversations with A&V yet.

In another episode full of deep wisdom worthy of a relisten, Angela and Victor talk about the importance of finding space in our bodies and in our lives and learning to fill that space with more resourceful and alive parts of ourselves. Jumping off directly from our last conversation about Healing, feeling interior space is a central aspect to the healing journey and a friend for our preparations for death.

In this rich episode I ask Angela and Victor to help me understand what we have to heal and what healing is anyways. If you have found yoga to be a healing practice for you, if you've had trauma(s) in your life, or if you're just curious about a deeply gentle and personally empowered healing practice looks like, you will enjoy this episode. You may want to listen to this one a few times. I know I will.

Join Angela for a deep and gentle grounding practice that will help you slow down and find aliveness right here in your body in the present moment. This was recorded in 2011 in Chapel Hill, NC. A special thank you to Molly Drake for organizing this workshop and many others. Molly is the reason so many of us in our area got to know A&V.
