The life and yoga podcast is all about exploring the complexities of life and diving deeper into ourselves to understand different perspectives, cultures and challenges that life brings about. This podcast aims to approach life through a yogic/spiritual perspective and shares the experiences we have had incorporating yoga into our lives. Aayush is a yoga teacher who has been practicing yoga since the age of 13 and started teaching at the age of 15. He now continues to teach globally whilst developing his personal brand and sharing his love for yoga. Rebecca is a yoga teacher who came into yoga 9 years ago and continued her practice through the years and decided to share the knowledge that she gained through the practice of yoga and meditation. We are a couple who met in the Himalayas, coming from totally different backgrounds and cultures. Together we explore the contrast in views and invite others in on our conversations.
