## Resource

What would you like me to talk about in 2026? 🗣️ As another year draws to a close, I’m reflecting on new types of podcasts. Today marks my 75th episode and while I plan to continue with the interview format, I’m also working on other ideas – including answering questions about any topic. So if there’s anything you want me to clarify, or to investigate, or if you have a dilemma you’d like to resolve from a yogic perspective, please get in touch – all suggestions and questions are welcome. Here are some from when I ran a “yoga problem page ” a couple of years back: * How (Not) to Fight Injustice * Psychedelics, Yoga and Consciousness * The Yoga of Discord * Is the Truth of Yoga Communicable? * Solitude, Solace and Community There’s no need to replicate those, or to focus on yoga – I’m genuinely open to anything, though I won’t blag an answer if I’m clueless. But I will do my best to ground whatever I say in yogic teachings – as well as exploring what might need rethinking to make them apply to contemporary challenges. I’ve shared some other examples in today’s podcast – responding to questions from Gabriel Maldonado, who hosts Living Yoga , and Peter Sterios and Crystal Ariel on My Inner Teacher (click the links for full versions of both conversations). For now, I’d like to wish you a happy and healthy new year! 🥳 -- 🧘‍♂️ To explore the evolution of yogic traditions, join me online at truthofyoga.com 🙏 Donations make this podcast sustainable – please consider subscribing or buy me a coffee ...
