To grow on purpose, with Sarah Powers
It feels at once difficult and incredibly easy to describe Sarah Powers and her work. She’s yet another beautiful embodiment of the intention of this podcast. A multidisciplinary practitioner, teacher, innovator, woman, mother, and global citizen, she offers 35 years of some of the deepest and most committed messages of interpersonal insight on how best for our species to thrive. This, all while we learn to survive and face the consequences of climate change and the many distractions we have invented to look away from ourselves, each other, and the planet.
All of this has to do with the ground, as she describes in our conversation, of practice. One of the founders of Yin Yoga, author of Insight Yoga (2008) and Lit From Within (2021), and co-creator—along with her husband, Ty Powers—of the Insight Yoga Institute, her teachings are, in my mind, central to the importance and impact of modern yoga.
