Welcome to Episode #6 of the Wild Yoga Tribe Podcast! This week, I welcome Prakash Acharya onto the show. He is the founder of Nepal Yoga Home, the school where I completed my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training in Kathmandu Nepal.
Prakash Acharya’s wisdom is effusive. You can feel his wealth of wisdom in his words, his energy, and by the strength of his aura. It comes across in this episode doesn’t it? He has this incredible way of using metaphors to clarify complex subjects. In our conversation today, Prakash talks about yoga as a washing machine for cleansing our bodies, and what it’s like to be a dirty car, or how we’re taught how to drive a car but not how to drive our lives…
Get ready for a rumbling! Your brain is about to soak up some deep, yogic knowledge all while laughing along with Prakash and his fun metaphors.
