  • Best yoga podcast

    Thank you Kino for the gift of this podcast. I’m a longtime student of yours and a member of Omstars. I really appreciate that you share your knowledge with people and don’t try to sell us anything. Other podcasts are beginning to be unlistenable because of the ads. And thank you for sticking with the Ashtanga tradition and continuing the lineage. Love you

#227 Beyond Asana: The Complete Path of Yoga with Srivatsa Ramaswami
Q: What is the role of study and philosophy in a modern yoga practice, especially for teachers?
Study of texts like Yoga Sutras and Sankhya Karika is essential to understand the philosophy behind practice, enabling teachers to convey a deeper, more contextual understanding beyond physical postures.
#227 Beyond Asana: The Complete Path of Yoga with Srivatsa Ramaswami
Q: How does the Vinyasakrama method practically help students progress from basic to advanced postures?
The method uses a structured progression of preparatory and lead-in vinyasas matched to breathing, gradually loosening tight muscles and aligning the entire body to support postures like Padmasana.
#226 Avidyā: Lifting the Veil of Ignorance in Yoga
Q: Are you brave enough?
The host challenges the listener to continue exploring, practicing, and pushing beyond comfort to uncover deeper layers of knowledge and practice.
#223 In Conversation with Dr Raj: The Stories Behind The Poses
Q: Can you separate yoga for reaching a higher consciousness from yoga, doing it only for exercise?
Yoga operates on all layers of our being, and while some may engage for purely physical benefits, the practice affects the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual layers as well.
#222 Grief, Presence, and the Courage to Stay Human with J.S. Park
Q: How does our spiritual practice inform our ability to let grief transform within us?
Grief isn't a poison to be worked out; it's natural and important for carrying memories of those we lost.
