Eric Rosso is a yoga teacher and one of the owners of  Yoga Room Hawai'i. He has been living 

on the island for the last few decades and is joining me in exploring the topic of how a yoga practice that goes beyond

physical practice and includes a spiritual one, can benefit in connecting people to nature and making us realize that we are interconnected in the most elemental ways.

Through earth, water, fire, breath.

We talk about how yoga, with it being an ancient and very elemental practice that connects us to ourselves and creates

more mindfulness, can make us more aware of our surroundings and our environment.

This is a very different episode to previous ones, but I think that the emotional aspects in our relationship to nature and within the climate crisis are too important to discount or not to include into these conversations.

Especially with yoga I find that, because you connect to yourself and the present moment, it can make you emotional, calm your mind, set thoughts free, 

spark ideas and also question life in fundamental ways.

It is also a practice that I find people can associate with or feel drawn to practice in nature

and being conscious of ourselves and the world around us in addition to the impacts we have on other beings and earth is

more important than ever.
