In this week’s episode, Rachel is joined by Ayurvedic Practitioner and yoga teacher Lily Russo. Lily shares the path of fascination with Ayurveda and yoga and how that has brought her to live in alignment with what brings her joy. Lily does a beautiful job of explaining what Ayurveda is along with the Element Theory.

She goes into detail talking about the doshas and how they not only make up everything in our being but everything in our world. As she continues to share each specific dosha we learn how to recognize when they are out of balance, all while offering simple tools that best support rebalancing them.

Rachel and Lily then get into a deep conversation about patriarchy and its role in yoga and how today’s evolution of the practice of yoga is really allowing more of a “bottom-up” approach bringing more feminine aspects into the land of yoga.
