Over three thousand years ago, yogis knew what scientists are discovering today: The mind has the power to destroy us or to propel us to greater peace, vitality, and freedom.  Yet yoga's profound teachings on the mind and consciousness are often overlooked in contemporary practices, which tend to focus primarily on physical postures and breathwork. Today, my guest, Reema Dutta, will share these timeless teachings with us, emphasizing the practices and principles we can adopt to enhance our lives. Reema Datta is the founder of the Yogi's Way, a holistic method that integrates movement, breathing, and consciousness practices with a focus on emotional well-being. She is certified to teach Ashtanga yoga and Tibetan heart yoga and is an Ayurvedic therapist. Since 2002, she has taught yoga training and retreats in over twenty countries across five continents. Her students include Sting, Paul Simon, Edie Brickell, Zainab Salbi, Sujatha Baliga, and thousands of other practitioners globally. In this interview, Reema offers lessons and practices rooted in yogic wisdom, cutting-edge science, and the realities of modern life. These can empower us to break free from our minds' destructive tendencies and experience lasting peace.

Wellness expert and author Heather Grzych speaks with Reema Datta — yogini, singer, and author of The Yogi's Way: Transform Your Mind, Health, and Reality. Reema shares how her early exposure to yoga and Ayurveda from her Indian family shaped her path, from working at the United Nations to becoming a globally respected teacher of ancient yogic wisdom. Heather and Reema explore the powerful influence of the mind on our health and reality, diving into yogic concepts like the kleshas (mental afflictions), the pain of regret, and how sensitivity can be transformed into a superpower. They discuss the role of the heart in cultivating peace and equanimity, and how practices like non-grasping and service lead to greater freedom and fulfillment. Reema also opens up about her personal journey, including the challenges of life, and why yoga is not just for the good times — but a vital preparation for the tough ones.   Heather Grzych, AD is an American author and expert in Ayurvedic medicine who was formerly the head of product development for a multi-billion-dollar health insurance company.

For our season premiere, we're sharing a conversation with one of our favorite writers, Hanif Abdurraqib. He joins Reema for a wide-ranging conversation about the moral judgments we're quick to make about people's financial circumstances, notions of success and legacy, and what it means to be “good” versus “bad” in an unequal world.
