Practice Beyond the Postures
from Living Yoga with Darren Main Hosted by Darren Main
In this Living Yoga episode, Darren talks with Vahid Coskun, a Washington, DC–based teacher and author of Practice Beyond the Postures. He shares his path from collegiate athlete to hot-yoga instructor and how observing students revealed common mental patterns on the mat—blame, guilt, people-pleasing, and outsourcing authority. We explore breath as the bridge between body and mind, why resistance is normal, and curiosity as the most honest intention.Vahid also reflects on growing up Muslim in Turkey, stepping away from organized religion, then returning to spirit; choosing change rather than being changed; and how teachers can honor students’ timing without losing depth.RESOURCESVahid’s Website: https://www.wellnessassemblyservices....Read: Practice Beyond the Postures https://amzn.to/4pV4DvrConnect with Darren Main https://darrenmain.net/followFREE STUFF!FREE Meditation Course: Mindfulness for Busy Minds- Anyone can learn to meditate—even you!https://darrenmain.net/free-meditatio...FREE Book: Inspired Practice: Wisdom From the Heart of India: A collection of quotes from Modern teachers and ancient texts.https://darrenmain.net/inspired-pract...FREE Yoga Class: Join Darren for a Free online practice. https://darrenmain.net/first-class-free✨ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review, follow, and share it with someone who needs a little inspiration today.
