Modern yoga teaching has become a mix of fragments, bits of Ayurveda, yogic philosophy, and a fair amount of pop-psychology picked up from social media.

If you’re not sure where the line sits between pop-psychology and yoga psychology, then this short course is for you. Dr Ajit goes back to the source, separating what’s genuinely rooted in yogic philosophy from what’s been absorbed along the way.
