Escaping Samsara

S2, Ep.13 Eddie Stern on Life After Ashtanga


Listen Later

In today's episode, we dive into the transformative journey of renowned yoga teacher Eddie Stern.

Over the last three years, Eddie has radically altered his approach to practicing asanas, moving away from the Ashtanga practice that defined his teaching to embrace a path of growth and exploration. He embarked on a journey of incorporating new asanas and adjusting sequences, eventually leaving behind old structures entirely in favor of his own asana and pranayama experiments.

We speak to about his new realization: that he no longer practices or desires to practice as he once did and we explore how he has recaptured the curiosity and joy that initially drew him to yoga.

Eddie's experience sheds light on the fluid nature of practice and the importance of being present and aware in the face of change. Join us as we explore Eddie's evolution, the challenges of maintaining "my practice," and how to find what truly serves us.
