I had the good fortune to start my yoga journey in earnest, only a few kilometers from the home studio of yin yoga pioneer, Bernie Clark. This meant that very early on, only a year or so after I started teaching, I completed a 50 HR Yin Yoga training with Bernie. Alongside the depth of wisdom Bernie brings to his teaching of yin yoga & human variation, I learned the value of applying critical thinking & the scientific method to my endeavors in yoga.
In today’s episode, Bernie helps me explore these concepts more deeply. At a time when we’re digesting more information than ever, critical thinking becomes even more important. It’s my hope that in this conversation, you feel inspired to question everything and keep an open mind, while not being afraid to change your opinions when presented with new evidence.
