Ep 218 Adam Keen – What Makes Yoga, Yoga?

www.keenonyoga.com | @adam_keen_ashtanga

"Not everything can be our yoga."

Adam explores the essence of yoga, discussing what differentiates it from mere stretching and how it affects consciousness. He delves into the distinctions between classical and Hatha yoga, emphasizing the importance of spinal stimulation and the right tension in yoga practices. Adam also addresses the significance of breath and the need to break free from past conditioning to achieve a clearer perception of reality. Ultimately, he defines a 'line in the sand' for modern yoga practices, advocating for a mindful approach to yoga that fosters self-awareness and personal growth.
