Tantra as a subject has been on my mind for a while for the podcast. It took me a while to find a guest on this topic because it's very important for me to find the perfect person to talk to it as there's so much misinformation out there about Tantra. Thankfully, I’ve found Dr. […]

Did you know that there are heating poses, cool poses, and neutral poses in yoga practice? We refer to these as the inner quality or the inner nature of Asana.
