Ep. 9 - Yoga And...
This week, Sarah discusses "Yoga And" culture with Tejal Patel and Jesal Parikh. In this episode, the women explore what yoga and is and why it is problematic. Tejal and Jesal share their three-pronged approach to assessing a new type of yoga. 1. Is it safe? 2. Is it mindful? 3. Is it appropriating another culture? Tejal and Jesal are hosts of the popular podcast, Yoga is Dead, a revolutionary podcast that explores power, privilege, fair pay, harassment, race, cultural appropriation and capitalism in the yoga and wellness worlds.
