Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Holistic Prana with Radhika Mukhija
Q: What daily practices do you recommend for practitioners to hold space for clients and maintain their own well-being?
Adopt a flexible sadhana with non-linear routines, focus on morning silence and breathwork, micro rituals that fit into busy schedules, and rituals that honor personal cycles and transitions while avoiding rigidity; begin again with compassion.
Embracing the Roots and Igniting the Future with Susanna Barkataki
Q: How do you ensure that your app, Yoke Yoga, stays true to ethical wisdom while enabling broad access?
We vet instructors, require transparent certifications, and center values like inclusivity and cultural sensitivity. The platform allows diverse practices to be shared responsibly, with safeguards to keep the community aligned with ethical foundations.
Embracing the Roots and Igniting the Future with Susanna Barkataki
Q: What does Dharma look like in a practical yoga therapy session for someone with chronic stress or illness?
Dharma in practice means honoring the client's unfolding path, listening deeply, and tailoring protocols to their life purpose rather than imposing our own aims. It involves discernment, respecting their agency, and weaving in evidence-based approaches with a broader sense of meaning and community context.
Embracing the Roots and Igniting the Future with Susanna Barkataki
Q: Could you share how your early life and training shaped your focus on yoga ethics and social change?
My cross-cultural upbringing, my teaching background, and time studying with spiritual teachers like Shankarji and Thich Nhat Hanh all converged to shape a belief that yoga must serve people and communities, not just individuals. This led me to found Ignite Institute and to prioritize ethics, accessibility, and leadership in yoga.
Yoga for Chronic Illness: Living Well vs. Seeking a Cure with Kayla Kurin
Q: Well, I'd love if we could just begin by having you share a bit about yourself, your journey, what drew you to yoga initially, and health journalism and storytelling, and what personal experience inspired you to write your best-selling book, Yoga for Chronic Illness?
Kayla describes growing up with chronic illness, discovering mindfulness through an environmental health clinic and the MBSR program, and developing a lifelong practice that informed her teaching focus on making yoga accessible to people who are sick or disabled. Her writing aims to broaden access to helpful resources, explain illness through storytelling, and combine journalism, comedy, and travel to empower others to live well even when a cure isn't possible.
