Bibi Lorenzetti on Hearing Our Inner Truth

Bibi has a way of eloquently articulating the experiences that are, well, really, really hard to articulate. In this episode, we talk about how the practice of ashtanga yoga helps refine our ability to listen and discern what is true—and what is your mind projecting something on to the truth. We all have that deep intuitive voice within ourselves, it just takes a matter of getting quiet enough to hear it, and then faith and a structure that allows us to go forward with what we hear.We also talk about her chanting practice and how Bhakti and Vedic chanting are more subtle doorways to connecting with the divine.How can we remove ourselves enough to connect with what’s truly there? How can we embody the practice, not as a performance, but as a lived truth? Let’s dive in.IF YOU ENJOYED THIS INTERVIEW, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE & DROP ME A RATING.

Om Podcasten

The Sādhaka Podcast. If asana is the “what” we do, then this podcast serves as the why the hell are we doing it? I will be interviewing experts in the field in an attempt to understand the lived experience of yoga philosophy, inner wisdom, creativity, flow, and inspiration. To understand the “spiritual side effects” of the practice. To glimpse the depth of yoga beyond the physical. So that on the days that you forget, you can remember why you started in the first place. Hosted by: Marla Tortorice - @marlasyoga. Discover the “how” of it all and practice yoga with me on Sādhaka Studio.
