Ever wonder if there is more to yoga than yoga postures? Join my guest Eric Shaw for a discussion around his new book called Sacred Thread: A Comprehensive Yoga Timeline: 2000 Events that Shaped Yoga History.  Eric’s teachings and passions have been influenced significantly by his teachers, in particular Shandor Remete and Rod Stryker. You can visit Eric on his website at prasanayoga.com and you can purchase a copy of Eric's new book on Amazon here.

During this conversation we discussed:

• the history and philosophy of yoga
• the timeline associated with modern yoga
• the origins of yoga in relation to the archeological findings at Mohenjo-daro
• Eric's experience with Iyengar yoga
• What yoga was like on the West Coast of USA during its peak
• Yoga as a global realization vs. a cultural specific identity

and quite a few more topics.

Join in listening to a  conversation that I had with Amit and Netta Aburman. Listen to the history behind The Twins Collection which is powered by the true story and art of twin sisters Hagar and Netta who struggled with eating disorders from the age of 12 and expressed their experiences through artistic creation. Amit and Netta have found a path from the grief of losing their sister to the empowerment of creating the EyeSeeYou community to help build a bridge between those who can help with those that need help. Please visit their website at EyeSeeYou.io which truly is a work of art in itself. You can make a donation or invest in an NFT of their artwork to help show your support.

During this conversation we spoke about:

• how many people are affected worldwide by eating disorders
• how difficult it can be for those that need help to access help
• how Netta has rehabilitated and now is sharing her art with the world in memory of her twin sister
• how the children of our future need a safe space on the internet that they can seek help from
• the process of grief and the power in finding solutions to our problems
• hope and inspiration for the global community

And So Much MORE!!

Welcome to this special edition podcast titled Yoga Yarns ~ Connecting with Krishna. My first introduction to yoga was when I was 18 and I met a Hare Krishna devotee. It was through this introduction that I began to practice yoga. Here I attempt to share a few stories about this time in my life and shed a little light on the culture of Krishna Consciousness. During this yoga yarn I share:

• how I was first introduced to the yoga of the Bhagavad Gita
• the different branches of yoga and how they differ and are similar to each other
• my personal journey of seeking solace in yoga and the challenges that arose in contemplating becoming a devotee
• my journey of navigating depression and how seeking yoga played into my healing
• some of the philosophical underpinnings of the Krishna movement
• how mantra can be used to elevate consciousness
• and quite a bit more :)
