A friend of mine sent this link to a presentation by Brene Brown on The Power of Vulnerability. She is witty, fun and sharp minded. As she proceeded through her research, I came to realize how her conclusions where so very yogic in meaning. As you continue to practice yoga and maybe even become interested in yoga philosophy, you will come to see the yogic perspective in a variety of places in our society today. This presentation is a perfect example of how yoga philopsophy as utilized in the modern world. Click the link below and enjoy (it is about 20 minutes and very much worth the time!)
