Welcome to Episode 1 of a Series of episodes regarding some of the modern day issues we face in the Wellness community. One of our great modern day dilemmas with Yoga in the West is cultural & spiritual appropriation, as well as too much emphasis on the physical asana practice with not enough focus on ALL the other areas of the ancient teachings of Yoga as a science. I am beginning a series of episodes covering this topic with fellow teachers and brainstorming ways we can better preserve the precious culture that Yoga came from, along with ways we can still appeal to our western audience.

Thank you Graham Bulock for joining in on this conversation. He joins us from Baja California, Mexico. A dear friend of mine whom I have known for over 15 years shares his amazing story of how Yoga helped him learn to walk again after suffering a terrible motorcycle accident that literally took his life. He shares his personal struggles with the issues we face today in the modern Yoga "industry" and helps us open up this discussion to a wider audience.

He can be found on Instagram @iyamliving where he shares his adventures down in Mexico with traversing the beautiful world of plant medicines and the healing aspects that they have to offer.
