Show Notes

In the popular world of yoga, there's widespread misinformation about the tradition and the path of Hatha Yoga. Its rich history is often forgotten or laid aside and replaced with various misleading interpretations. While most yoga teachers are borrowing every day from hatha yoga. Hardly anyone knows its origins or in fact much about this path at all. 

Prasad Rangnekar, who has been on the podcast many times before is from the Natha lineage. The founding lineage of Hatha Yoga. He shares his deep wisdom about the hatha yoga path. Here are some of our conversation highlights...

  • What to practice under Hatha Yoga
  • What is Kriya
