Susanna is the author of Yoga 365: Daily Wisdom for Life On and Off the Mat. She is a yoga teacher, writer and artist, whose work is rooted in South Indian Philosophy. Her spiritual home is in the great Nataraja and Tillai Kali Temples of Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India, where she has travelled for darshan annually since 2008 . Susanna created Devi Soul Yoga, an approach to teaching that includes Hindu myth, mantra, mudra, and meditation in each of her classes. She combines these practices with a careful attention to alignment and an emphasis on the breath to guide flowing movement sequences. Her classes are challenging with a powerful spiritual component, inviting students into the deep sweetness of svadhyaya, or self-study. Based in NYC, Susanna leads workshops internationally, mentors, trains teachers, and speaks on yoga philosophy, meditation, and Hindu myth. Teaching since 2002, she is E-RYT-500 and YACEP. Off the mat, Susanna spends her time writing and drawing. Her book, Yoga 365: Daily Wisdom for Life On and Off the Mat, has sold over 30,000 copies and is currently being translated into Korean and Vietnamese. Susanna writes for numerous publications and created the popular Writing Your Practice and 30Things workshops and online courses, which apply yoga philosophy and myth to the practice of writing, unlocking yogis’ creativity and refining their self-expression. Students from over 25 countries have participated since 2011. Previously Susanna worked at NYC’s Museum of Modern Art where she lectured and wrote, including co-writing the book Looking at Matisse and Picasso(2003).Susanna is deeply grateful to Dr. Douglas Brooks, Leslie Kaminoff, and Sianna Sherman for continually inspiring, supporting, and challenging her.If you haven't listened to my first episode with Susanna you can listen here:https://stuartwatkins.org/podcast/susanna-harwood-rubin/Follow Susanna here:https://susannaharwoodrubin.comGet Susanna's book:https://susannaharwoodrubin.com/yoga-365-book/Much gratitude to the sponsors of this podcast:https://blessitbee.com.auEnter promo code STUART for 10% offhttps://www.themilkcleanse.comEnter promo code STUARTWATKINS for 10% offhttps://sacredtaste.comEnter promo code STUARTWATKINS for 10% offWith love,StuSupport the show
