Creating Community Around Your Practice with Jeannie Turner

The Tools of Transformation with Cathy Christoff

What is the role does yoga plays in transformation? Applying yoga philosophy to modern life is a key component of the Viniyoga tradition. The context and tools provided through yoga philosophy affect how we perceive, understand, respond, and make meaningful change in our lives. Join Chase Bossart, the Executive Director of the Yoga Well Institute, and Yoga Therapist Cathy Christoff for a conversation about how practice and study serve as containers that support life's changes. Explore how personalized meditation tools support awareness changes. They talk through particular meditative objects, what was happening in her life at the time, and the qualities these objects provided for her to experience changes resulting in clarity, discernment, and authenticity.

There are benefits to both Western Allopathic and Indian Yogic understandings of the body and its systems. However, it is extremely important to understand the core differences in the approach of each perspective to the body.

This discussion took place as part of our free Yoga Well Discussion series, which takes place the last Tuesday of every month starting at 11:30amPT/2:30pmET.
