Can anyone practice yoga – and why should they? Is yoga just a flexibility exercise? Are there any different types of yoga? Can yoga affect our relationships? What results should we expect from a dedicated yoga practice? 

Jason Crandell has been teaching yoga for more than 20 years, with one purpose: to use the tools that yoga offers to help people be less stressed, communicate more and embrace who they really are.

References heard in the episode: 

• Isometric exercises or isometrics, a type of strength training in which the joint angle and muscle length do not change during contraction 
• Vinyasa yoga, a very fluid type of yoga 
• Hot yoga, a series of 26 yoga positions practiced in 90 minutes at 40°C for all ages and all physical conditions
