About this episode
In this episode, Nyk Danu discusses AcuYin, its relevance for Yoga teachers, and shares concerns about its integration into practice.
Season 8 | Ep. 1 In this episode, I'm diving into AcuYin, what it is, whether it's worth adding to your toolkit, and why I have some serious reservations about it. We talk about the real depth of Chinese medicine, why acupressure points are way more powerful (and individual) than most Yoga teachers realize, and where I think short continuing ed courses on this topic fall short. If you're a Yoga teacher considering an AcuYin training, this one's for you. Plus, a little celebratory moment, we hit 100,000 downloads! Thank you for your support! Season eight, here we go....
