Deconstruction with Dr. Katie Blake
This episode is one of my favorites so far. Why? Because my friend, Dr. Katie Blake, gives us some language to define what it is I experienced in my yoga career about 5 years ago. Katie is an expert on deconstruction, a topic that is usually used for those looking to unpack their faith system and shift to a different way of thinking.
But here, we use deconstruction as a term that is applied to the yoga space. We talk about what it is to unpack the dogma surrounding yoga, and how we can use this process to re enter our relationship with yoga with more love, and more boundaries.
I happen to think this process of deconstruction is really important, but especially now when our industry is operating in a whole new paradigm, and we are given the opportunity to deeply assess what is working for us, and what isn’t.
Not all deconstruction comes from a place of distrust or betrayal, but it can come from a place of love. Love of self, love of community, and love of yoga.
So let’s talk about deconstruction as it relates to yoga, friends.
I promise, this podcast is worth a listen.
