Lighting Up a New Path with Anjali Rao & Jivana Heyman


Listen Later

“Yoga is a microcosm of what's happening in every institution, including the judicial system, employment, medical care, all of that. So I'm just creating a small shift, hopefully, in people's perspectives and understandings of the prevalence of caste in Yoga history.”

Join us for the captivating season finale of our podcast as Jivana interviews Anjali and they dive into a deep, transformative conversation.

In this special episode, Anjali and Jivana discuss:

  • Personal and Professional Changes
  • The motivations and inspirations behind Anjali’s decision to pursue her Doctorate this Fall.
  • A sneak peek into Anjali’s first book, set to release in Fall 2025. The book tackles profound questions such as:
    •  Is there such a thing as non-patriarchal yoga?
    •  How does caste intersect with yoga?
    •  How is yoga used as a tool of oppression?
    • Pushback and rejections Anjali faced while writing this book and why this topic is crucial in today’s world.
    • Zionist backlash Jivana faced and the challenges of dealing with social media criticism.
    • The tough decision to close the non-profit and the significant transitions within Accessible Yoga
    •  Free Resources for Teachers
