In today’s episode, we welcome back Madhura Bhagwat to the Podcast. Madhura previously joined us on episode 43 where we discussed cultural appropriation of yoga from an Indian perspective. This time around, Madhura shares experience and knowledge of the history of yoga, how it developed, what Hatha yoga actually is and how non-violence means much more than being vegetarian.
