Today I’m speaking with the O.G of Ashtanga podcasting. The woman who started “Ashtanga Dispatch,” the first podcast dedicated to Ashtanga yoga teaching, (long before most of us even knew what a podcast was, let alone had a library of them stored on our phones). That’s right. I’m sitting down with the lovely Peg Mulqueen to talk about the benefits of having a mentor and how it’s different than being in a student-teacher relationship. We offer some simple exercises to help you become more aware of your unconscious patterns, beliefs, and thoughts. We also have a fun debate over whether or not the physical asana practice is necessary to actually experience the benefits of yoga or not. You’ll also hear our personal insights around some of the ways we’ve learned to deepen our own experiences yoga, both on and off the mat. Peg writes: “Yoga is a path that returns us to wholeness, leading us home to what is our true nature. And it’s this sense of belonging and balance, along with a feeling of kinship and support, we hope you will find here. For while yoga may ultimately be an individual journey, you don’t have to walk it alone.” And this is exactly what we’ll be exploring today in this beautiful conversation between friends. I hope you take what you need and that it supports you in your personal practice + spiritual growth.
