Body Kindness

In Part 2 of White Supremacy in Yoga series, we discuss the harms and the fixes, including what you can do as a yoga teacher, teacher trainer, student, or person who cares about anti-racism work. This includes reading books, having conversations, and taking meaningful actions.  Here’s just a taste of what we discuss:  Cultural appropriation of ayurveda.  Diet culture and racism in yoga.  How bad teachers can mess up the yoga experience. Systemic and structural White Supremacy in yoga and why we need an overhaul, a power shift in diversity, equity, and inclusion from within wellness organizations. Call to action with 4 simple steps (listed below). Body Kindness is a practice of personal and collective well-being. We can do this. Tune in to learn more and most important, take action.
