The Science of Yoga by Eddie Stern | EPISODE - 38 |

We have seen a huge growth in the popularity of yoga in recent years, and people turn to yoga for many different reasons. Today’s podcast is all about science and neurophysiology of yoga from a longtime expert in the field. On today’s A Gut Story podcast, our host, Dr. Dimple, talks to Eddie Stern, a yoga teacher, an author, and lecturer based in NYC. He is known for his multidisciplinary approach to furthering education and access to yoga, as well as his teaching expertise in Ashtanga Yoga. His book, One Simple Thing: A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How it can Transform your life was released. It is a bestselling book that examines from both a Western scientific perspective and an Eastern philosophical perspective the underlying mechanisms that make yoga an amazingly effective practice for health, wellbeing, and spiritual development. In this episode, Dr. Dimple and Eddie Stern talk about what makes yoga such an effective practice from a neurophysiological perspective. They also talk about the mechanics beneath the surface of our bodies and how we can consciously use yogic practices to direct and change our lives in positive ways.
