148 The Yoga of Smell

Episode 148 of Samadhi Rush is a discussion about the significance of our sense of smell in the practice of yoga.

The podcast examines physiology, psychology, sublte anatomy and yoga philosophy on the power of smell.

We dive into muladhara chakra, the vrittis, the kleshas and pratyahara.
