Ashtanga Yoga: For the Seekers

Ashtanga Yoga: For the Seekers
Podcast Description
The Sādhaka Podcast. If asana is the “what” we do, then this podcast serves as the why the hell are we doing it? I will be interviewing experts in the field in an attempt to understand the lived experience of yoga philosophy, inner wisdom, creativity, flow, and inspiration. To understand the “spiritual side effects” of the practice. To glimpse the depth of yoga beyond the physical. So that on the days that you forget, you can remember why you started in the first place. Hosted by: Marla Tortorice - @marlasyoga.
Discover the “how” of it all and practice yoga with me on Sādhaka Studio.
