Eve 1990 Yoga Conference

One reason we are drawn to and want to commit to yoga, I believe, is that we find the practitioners of this age-old art are inspiring to us.
In the yoga retreats I led outside of Sydney I’d reserve a time for the individuals participating in the weekend to introduce themselves to the group by telling who they were, what they did for a living and what their yoga experience was. There was a discernable difference between the veteran practitioners and those who were relative beginners in terms of their well-being and centeredness. The beginners could sense it and saw that yoga practice was something to aspire to.
Yoga Teacher Podcasts, brainchild of Bettina Mitchell, is a new website from which yogis can draw inspiration from well-known yoga teachers in Australia and New Zealand. Each down-loadable interview of a teacher gives insights into how yoga has shaped the teacher’s life, who their teachers have been, and how they have served their students and their communities.
