Liberating yoga: from appropriation to healing

Minneapolis: Broadleaf Books (2024)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

In the West, the practice of yoga is weighed down by years of cultural appropriation. But yoga is more than a one-hour fitness class aimed at flexibility. In Liberating Yoga, yoga teacher Harpinder Kaur Mann shows yogis a path to reclaim yoga from appropriation and recenter the ancient spiritual practice where it belongs.
