Waking Up From the Sleeping World

Published: March 9, 2020, 10 a.m.

In this episode, Christina discusses the functions of the sleeping world as something that operates according to laws of separation, competition, submission, and division. "The Sleeping World holds us hostage to ideals for the human that are unrealistic, often unhealthy, and founded on a lack of respect for our essential sense of worthiness and goodness.” Christina, Britt, and Alex talk about what it is to live in a culture of transaction, and what we as teachers, students, and practitioners of yoga can do to use yoga as a technology to move us out of mechanical sleep and into the world. We’re so glad you’re here!
