On today's episode with San Qing, we welcome remarkable traditional yoga teacher and YouTuber, Brice Watson. At 18 years old while studying in London, England, Brice discovered the practice of yoga. What started as a way to reduce swelling from years of long distance running soon became a daily practice. Brice then decided to start her journey into a more serious study of traditional yoga with Ashtanga practitioner and Atlanta-based teacher Gary Jones. Gary was instrumental in teaching Brice full primary and encouraging her to go deeper in her yoga study. From there, Brice became a student of David Garrigues (one of 47 certified by the late Pattabhi Jois) of Philadelphia, PA. With David, Brice began to deepen her philosophy study, Sanskrit study, and practice of pranayama and chanting. In 2015, Brice became a student of the late Sharath Jois (lineage holder of Ashtanga yoga, grandson of the late Pattabhi Jois) and KPJAYI in Mysore, India. Brice continues to takes trips to India to study Sanskrit, chanting, and philosophy under Lakshimsha at KPJAYI. Brice is currently the only female to hold KPJAYI Authorization in the state of Georgia.In 2018, Brice started focusing primarily on workshops and intensives in and around the state of Georgia. Her workshops and intensives became so popular among serious students of yoga that they became waiting list only.In 2020, while the world was in lockdown, and her teaching on hold, Brice turned to her other love of all things esoteric, paranormal, and weird into a successful YouTube channel. As her channel began to grow, and the world began to crumble, Brice started to share her experience in traditional yoga with her audience. Since then, Brice has successfully hosted two global shadow work challenges, and hopes to continue to share with the world what she has been so lucky to learn in her life.On top of her YouTube Channel Esoteric Atlanta, Brice is also a contributor to GnosticTV and regularly appears as a guest on podcast and YouTube Channels across the world. Brice still teaches in person classes at Sacred Garden Yoga in Georgia, and occasionally makes a teaching appearance at Ashtanga Yoga Atlanta.Brice is the founder of a nonprofit called The Mysore Foundation that works to serve the underprivileged children of the slums of India. She also has rescued six Indian Street Dogs, bringing them to happy homes in the USA.Brice currently splits her time between Atlanta, GA, and, Florida, with her boyfriend and Indian Street Dog, Ravi. She is also the proud aunt of two nephews and two nieces, who she hopes will one day go with her to India so she can show them what their aunt has been up to for these years! But for now, they just think it’s cool their aunt does YouTube.Brice's Socials:https://www.youtube.com/@UCTA208fPy9IexXsllIpkbUA https://www.instagram.com/esoteric_atlanta/https://www.theesotericacademy.com/https://x.com/esotericatlanta?mx=2*Brand New Book*Buy the TAO TE CHING transcribed by San Qing as a direct channel of Lao Tzuhttps://buy.stripe.com/8wMdSe0s8ayIgtq4jC?locale=en&__embed_source=buy_btn_1PCJtqLqVWuQP7qZFOPvn24W The Way 126 app LIVE now on web, IOS and Androidhttps://theway126.com/instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/theway_126Sleep Frequency of The Way YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@sleepfrequencyoftheway#mentalhealth #meditation #consciousness #selfimprovement #personaldevelopment #taoism #theway126 #sanqing
