This week, I’m joined by yoga teacher and global mindfulness facilitator Josh Blatter. We talk about his teaching journey—from the yoga studio to his work with Peace on Purpose, a program that supports United Nations staff working in some of the most high-pressure environments in the world.
Josh shares:
- Why questioning long-held beliefs is vital for yoga teachers
- Studying in the Viniyoga lineage and the individualized approach to yoga
- What it was like to study at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in Chennai
- How Vedic Chant is a powerful part of his personal practice -- and how challenging it is to learn
- Peace on Purpose and his recent trips to Bangladesh and Pakistan
- How Josh teaches in high-stress environments and how cultural sensitivity shapes the work
- Advice for yoga teachers on staying inspired, grounded, and financially afloat
- A guiding principle for sustainable teaching and caregiving (this one's a huge lightbulb moment for me!)
Thank you, as always, for listening and sharing the podcast.
