Ep 26 | Laruga Glaser

We’re in Mysore, India and waiting to be ushered into the shala for chanting class. It’s hot as hell standing outside that afternoon, That's when I first see her - Laruga Glaser. I’m a hot, sweaty mess - while she’s as stunning as every Instagram post I’ve seen of hers. And I’m in awe. Of course, not just she glows in a different way than I am at that moment … but also because it’s odd to see a teacher of her notoriety at chanting class. First of all, they are held in the heat of the afternoon but also, they’ve been there and done that a hundred times over. But there's Laruga, waiting in blazing hot sun for the door to open and class to start - just like all the rest of us. And that’s exactly why I love her. She’s real and relatable ad keeps the yoga the same way. Genuine and completely down-to-earth, I know then that Laruga Glaser would be just the kind of person you and I would enjoy getting to know better.
