These are our absolute favourite yoga podcasts on the internet. They are informative, insightful and down to earth. I hope you get as much out of them as we did.

Yoga is Dead

6 episodes of pure gold! Indian-American hosts, Tejal and Jesal, run us through the main culprits of who killled yoga. They address subjects such as privilege, power and pay with depth and humor.
They generously share resources and advice on how to overcome some of the issues that face the yoga world today, leaving us both educated and entertained.

'We created the Yoga is Dead podcast as a way to jumpstart critical conversations, elevate oppressed voices and perspectives and to expose the problems felt by anyone who isn’t in the “in” crowd of the yoga industry.'

Living It

I first found 'Living It' by being sent a version of The Yoga Sutra which is written by the hosts of this podcast. To be honest when I first received it I wasn't a big fan, but as time went by I came to understand it's value as an accessible version of the text and as a useful comparison to traditional interpretations in my philosophy classes.

The podcast follows similar themes in that it is accesible and practical, giving us ways to apply yoga philosophy to our everyday lives. This is especially true of Season 2 where they match their interview guests with a Yama or Niyama (the ethical precepts of yoga) and by doing so explore each one with a refreshing perspective. Highlights include, 'Discipline' with Kino MacGregor and 'Happiness' with Mo Gawdat.

'Join Kelly DiNardo and Amy Pearce-Hayden as they untangle the mindset, habits and practices that can teach us where we are in our mind to create a joyful, meaningful life. A podcast for people who want to live a life on purpose.'

The Simple Ayurveda Podcast

After searching for a good ayurveda podcast for a long time, 2 months ago I found an excellent one! The host, Angela Perger, treats ayurveda as it should be treated, as a practice just like yoga.

There are well over 100 episodes that cover a wide range of subjects from, the dosha basics, to advice on doing an ayurvedic home cleanse, to the value of storytelling. A great resource for those that are looking to learn the foundations of ayurveda and also for those that want to go deeper.

'Simple Ayurveda is here to make ancient science easy to understand, relatable and totally possible for you to apply into your modern day life so that you can be your healthiest, most vibrant self.'
