A lot of people mean well when they are passing on ‘self-help’ teachings.
But like ‘Chinese Whispers’, through the retelling the actual teaching can become distorted to a point where it eventually becomes incorrect.
This is one of the reasons why I like the yoga taught at The Practice in Bali.
Octavio has put a lot of time, energy and effort (20+ years) into trying to best understand the traditional teachings, which were trialed, tested, and replicated over 1000’s of years.
Most people don’t realise the traditional teachings of yoga are more about creating an elevated ‘mind’ as opposed to a flexible body.
So today I want to talk about another ‘teaching’ that has been mistaught.
