Eddie has been teaching yoga in New York City since 1989, and since 1993 has
run the NYC branch of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois's Ashtanga Yoga Institute. Now
located in Brooklyn, the school also functions as a consecrated Hindu
temple. He is also involved in bringing health and wellness programs to
under-served and in-need communities based on yoga, stress reduction,
mindfulness and relaxation, and has designed protocols for scientific
studies on yoga. We spoke about his personal path, his guru, his work and
his perspective on the current yoga scene.

Dr Anthony Bossis Interview

During a weekend in New York just before Christmas, I had the amazing opportunity to catch up with renowned Ashtanga yoga teacher, Eddie Stern and practice at his shala, the Brooklyn Yoga Club. Lots to learn in this latest episode of our yoga podcast - which could certainly feel, at times, more like a science lesson than an interview. Listen as Eddie describes the vagus nerve, an information pathway for a lot of things that are really important for the yogis. Eddie explains that we are an entire biological mechanism of complementary systems, and so our practice isn’t based on striving and pushing - but in seeking a normal, every-day balance and harmony so we can live a healthier, happier life. And why the yoga, among other things - a true scientific method.
