What does the process of owning your yoga look like? What is the role of a yoga teacher in helping you to get there? And what is the ultimate value (or the point) to doing the work to create yoga that is uniquely yours? These are some of the things we talked about in this juicy conversation with yoga therapist and physiotherapist, Libby Hinsley. We go deep into the heart of teaching and practicing yoga guided by Libby’s wide-ranging wisdom, experience and passion. A fabulous discussion about many concepts that are dear to our hearts and our practice!

We talked about...


  • Cultivating an internal practice rather seeking to master external alignment cues - the yoga of knowing yourself
  • Interoceptive cues and the overlap of hyper mobility and aging
  • Should we teach our students anatomy?
  • Is it up to us as teachers to set the goal for the practice?
  • Why having the perspective of anatomical variability will put a lot of people at ease.
  • What messages we send with the language that we use
  • Working with chronic pain
  • How yoga can help you answer the question, ‘what matters to me?’
  • How yoga creates a vital space for community that is key to “heart happiness.”
