New York's Psychedelic Yoga: A Multisensory Journey with Yogapodden

Yoga is not just about the physical practice, it's about exploring the depths of consciousness and the connection between mind, body, and spirit. The psychedelic experience of yoga takes this exploration to a whole new level.
Imagine blending yoga with the vibrant energy of New York City, and then adding a dash of psychedelia. That's exactly what you'll find in this episode of Yogapodden's Yoga Radio Sessions. Hosts Christian Wigardt and Curt Lundberg embark on a fascinating tour of New York's eclectic yoga scene, offering listeners a unique perspective on how yoga is evolving in this bustling metropolis. First up, they visit Y7, a powerhouse in the yoga world with 12 locations across the city.
Known for its hip-hop beats and signature 'Slow Burn' and 'Flow Hard' classes, Y7 is all about making yoga accessible and exciting. But the journey doesn't stop there. The hosts also explore Yoga To The People, a beloved donation-based studio that has been making yoga affordable for everyone for over a decade. The real highlight of the episode is their deep dive into Woom Yoga, a studio that's redefining what it means to practice yoga.
Woom integrates elements like vinyasa, ashtanga, Taoism, dance, Chinese medicine, and even sacred geometry into its sessions. Imagine practicing yoga surrounded by mesmerizing visuals and an excellent sound system, while being guided through powerful breathwork inspired by Dr. Stanislav Grof’s Holotropic technique. It's a truly multisensory experience designed to help you disconnect from the 'monkey mind' and reach heightened states of awareness.
The episode doesn't just stick to yoga poses and breathwork; it also delves into how essential oils and overtone-emitting instruments like gongs and Himalayan singing bowls are enhancing the practice. These elements help deepen the connection between mind, body, and spirit, making the yoga experience even more transformative. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or just curious about new ways to enhance your practice, this episode offers something for everyone.
So roll out your mat, tune in, and get ready to explore the psychedelic side of yoga with Yogapodden.
