In this western culture of "been there, done that, bought the T-shirt" one could think that at some point there isn't more to learn. Can't teach an old dog new tricks sort of thing. Not so yoga! I'm chatting with Debs Albon who has been practicing and teaching yoga for over 30 years and feels that this is a subject that simply keeps on giving. It is a joyful, bottomless well of knowledge that offers you gifts of wisdom every time you dip into it!
Debs is passionate about reading ancient yogic scriptures, but are they relevant for the modern world? Absolutely, she says. It's all about raising awareness, about discovering why we are here and asking the question: what's this life all about really? And the ancient Indian yogis offer plenty of insight on that.
But Debs doesn't just read, she goes to the source and recently spent a month in India. She shares her experiences and impressions, and to my question, helps explain what Kundalini Yoga is. And no, it's not about sex!
Finally, I ask Debs to take a big picture view of her life - does she think the world is going in the right direction? Are we getting it? Join us to find out.
