Yoga Teaching Inspirations - Myths
Explore myths such as Ganesh, Hanuman, Krishna, Peaceful Warrior and the Power of Om.
Explore several myths in the form of audio lectures in this course including:
1) Ganesh
Ganesh is often thought of as the remover of obstacles, but I prefer to think of him as the revealer of possibilities.
2) Hanuman
Hanuman is a monkey deity and has a great story to illustrate certain things to find out what’s going on in heart and mind.
3) Krishna
Krishna is featured in one of the primary yogic texts, the Bhagavad Gita.
4) Peaceful Warrior
Learn how to teach, through the influence of the Bhagavad Gita, what it means to be a peaceful warrior through specific asana and ways to integrate the dharma talk into the class.
5) The Power of Om
Because Om has all meaning as well as no meaning, it is a great way to bring spirituality into your class through chanting it and balancing the energy in the room.

She is anti-dogmatic in all things, and her love of science confirms her spirituality, rather than negates it. Alanna’s vision picks up where Joseph Campbell left off — to empower people to connect with and embrace their humanness.
