176. Heather Grzych on Mastering Destiny vs Surrendering
Manage episode 507357409 series 3675414
Author and Ayurvedic practitioner Heather Grzych explores the journey from darkness to clarity through the lens of yoga philosophy. From the inertia of tamas to the restless empowerment of rajas, and ultimately the purity of sattva, Heather shares how these states show up in daily life, from the foods we eat to the way we breathe. Drawing on stories from films and books, she reveals how individuals and even entire groups cycle through these modes of being, and why true empowerment is found in the balance of control and surrender. Plus, Heather explains why retreat environments are intentionally designed to support sattva, and how you can bring more clarity into your own life.
