Mark Whitwell and Ana Berry | From Yoga as escape to Yoga as embrace

In this episode, Mark Whitwell sits down (over Zoom) with his dear long-time friend Ana Berry: musician, media presenter, actress, Yoga teacher and mother.

Ana describes growing up in Oklahoma and the saving influence of jazz and gospel, and the imprint of culture upon her mother as a beauty queen and TV personality.

From Hollywood to New York, her search for Yoga that didn’t just exacerbate body self-hatred culminated in meeting Mark Whitwell in a class in LA, followed by initiation into the ancient roots of Yoga with Mark Whitwell at the Kumbh Mela in India.

  • What does Yoga look like when taken out of these deep usual patterns of “I’m not good enough, I need to be skinnier / fitter / stronger / younger / smoother / more flexible / happier / better”?
  • What is missing from the vast majority of Yoga?

Mark Whitwell | Life is Spirals - Melissa Forbes, Yogini, Artist, Yantra Creator

A special edition of the Heart of Yoga podcast as Melissa Forbes speaks about her life as an artist and Yoga practitioner and her friendship with UG Krishnamurti.

How do we describe him?

It’s difficult, but with love and gratitude, delight and humour, Melissa and Mark Whitwell reminisce about their unusual friend - Melissa travelled with UG for the last five years of his life as his companion and “balance.”

She speaks about the power of art to help people use their right brain instead of the dominant left-brain, her obsession with spirals as the form of the cosmos and UGs resolution of this, and how he changed her Yoga from strenuous Astanga style to fluid participation in the spirals.

Mark Whitwell and Frederic "Champagne" Ballario | Yogis Are Not Built on Assembly Lines

These interviews are useful because they describe how many different kinds of people receive Yoga and make use of Yoga, and how Yoga is functioning in their personal and unique lives.

“Yogis are not made on assembly lines.”

In this episode, Mark Whitwell speaks with Frederic Ballario, his long-time friend, on his process of discovering the breath and the Yoga of wine and Tea. Frederic describes moving from Champagne, France to California, USA, many years ago and searching for the truth in wine.

Frederic is a master of Tea and Wine, and he explains how these ancient arts have been purified and made useful in the context of Yoga understanding and practice.

What do our sacred substances look like when we remove the cultural habit of looking for stimulation?

Mark Whitwell and Susan Swan | Living One Breath at a Time

In this episode, Susan Swan and Mark Whitwell talk about Susan’s experience as a Yoga teacher, including suffering a stroke and continuing to teach while rehabilitating.

Susan speaks about recovering language through breath, swearing, and the sound of OM, coming face to face with the reality that we live one breath at a time, and teaching yoga in the hospital to help other patients recover.

Together, long-time friends Mark Whitwell and Susan discuss the inevitable decline of the body, finding contentment despite it all, the pain of facing judgment and abandonment, and some possible positive outcomes from the impact of the pandemic on yoga teaching.

They also discuss what kept Susan going as a teacher during the most difficult times, and meetings with UG Krishnamurti.

Mark Whitwell and Rosalind Atkinson | God and Sex: Now We Get Both Part 2

In this Part 2 (you don't need to listen to part 1 first!) of God and Sex discussion, Mark Whitwell and Rosalind talk about:

  • Why we need both strength and receptivity
  • How we develop receptivity via our asana
  • Why we must address the denial of the feminine and put a spotlight on sex as a topic rather than avoid it
  • How a Yoga practice is the context in which we become receptive in relationship with another
  • How sex and intimate relationships are a direct participation of Mother Nature's grand plan
  • But do you have to be in an intimate relationship to have a good spiritual life?
  • Is polarity the same as attraction or sexual "chemistry"?
  • How yoga helps us develop the discernment of the 3 L-s: who we Like, Love, and Lust
  • What asana does to actually release the drama out of your relationships

Ending Patterns of Limit: A Conversation with Domagoj Orlić

From dark times in Europe through to personal victory.

Croatian yoga teacher Domagoj Orlić joins Mark Whitwell and Rosalind to speak about his twenty-year friendship with Mark Whitwell, his evolution from a gymnast to a yogi, the influence of J Krishnamurti, and the confluence of Sri Vidya and yoga in his life.

What a precious conversation with a dear friend and holder of yoga.

“Powerful peace and peaceful power of a life lived straight from the Heart, for the Heart.” - Domagoj Orlić

Domagoj Orlić first met Mark Whitwell in about 2000, following an interest in yoga since his teenage years.

He is a yoga teacher in the traditional mode of “no more than a friend, no less than a friend,” the author of multiple books on yoga and philosophy in Croatian and English,

Mark Whitwell on The Stuart Watkins Podcast

Mark Whitwell is a master Yoga teacher and has taught yoga for over three decades internationally and is the editor and contributor to TKV Desikachar's book The Heart of Yoga. Mark Whitwell is interested in developing an authentic yoga practice for the individual, based on the teachings of T. Krishnamacharya and his son TKV Desikachar, with whom he enjoyed a relationship for more than twenty years. Mark’s teachings clarify the profound passion and relevance of ancient wisdom to contemporary life.  Mark Whitwell teaches Ha-Tha Yoga, which against common understanding means all physical forms of Yoga practice, not a specific "style". Hatha means the merging of the sun and moon, the male and female, prana and apana (two energies), and is a purificating and re-balancing practice where breath and body movement are one. The practice includes Asana (postures), Pranayama (breathing exercises which move, activate and increase Prana, vital energy), Bandha (energy locks), Meditation, Relaxation and Chanting.  He is the author of 6 profound books including his latest book 'God and Sex: Now We Get Both.' Join us as we discuss this book among other things. I truly feel that this book is a vital piece to assist humanity in awakening to a more harmonious balance. I highly encourage you get a copy for yourself and dive into the wisdom.  This is the second time Mark has been on the podcast.
