In this episode, host Anne Muhlethaler interviews Tess Privett (@lotuspocus_milano): Tess is a yoga teacher, owner of Lotus Pocus studio in the center of Milan, Italy, who Anne encountered virtually while the two were studying how to launch their podcasts with the help of Seth Godin's Akimbo "Podcast Fellowship".
This marks their first time "meeting" over Zoom, despite the fact they had spent a good couple of months that same spring reading and hearing about each other's projects come to life. Tess and Anne share a deep interest in yoga and meditation. In this interview, they discuss Tess' experience in the four paths of yoga (helpful for anyone new to the practice), including the path that initially interested her the least, the Bhakti or devotional path. She then offers insights on the practical effects of doing one-pointed yogic meditation, like Japa, which she teaches, and shares a personal story about the joy one can feel while chopping an onion!
Tess has a deep love of yoga philosophy and she talks about her dharma and how she strives to make the canonical texts practical for everyday, which is the underlying purpose of her podcast, Yoggi(Yoga Oggi = yoga today).
If you like yoga, and perhaps philosophy, and speak Italian, jump on the link below to discover. A beautiful, funny and inspiring conversation. Happy listening!
