In this episode, we wade into the fourth of the five kleshas — dvesha - or aversion... From the emails you don't want to open to the people you silently avoid, you realise dvesha is everywhere once you start looking for it. We unpack what the yogic tradition actually says about this deep-rooted tendency to push away discomfort, why it's sneakier than its more famous sibling raga (attachment), and what a little self-awareness can do about it. No Sanskrit degree required — just an open mind and a sense of humour about your own avoidance habits.
Emma and Andy try to keep their podcasts light-hearted and unedited, wherever possible, allowing for a more natural conversation style and an authentic representation of their characters. They aim to provide information and entertainment by mixing their knowledge, research and personal experiences with debate and (occasional) opposing view points. :-)
