Episode Description: At one point in today’s episode, Luvena shares that the sign of a great teacher is that they leave you with more questions than answers. And that is exactly how I felt when Luvena and I finished our conversation this afternoon. I know that we only scratched the surface of many deep and complex topics such as cultural appropriation, what it means to find an authentic teacher, and why yoga has gotten so political on social media. Luvena briefly mentioned the paradox between business, yoga & yoga teachers needing to make a living - which, while we didn’t have time to dive into it in more detail - is definitely something I hope to chat to Luvena about again in the future. So if you’ve been confused by the “yoga world” you see on social media and are currently trying to figure out how to find a legitimate teacher, then I really think you’ll enjoy this episode.
