In this podcast, we speak with Holly Skodis, a Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500, YACEP). She studied with Dharma Mittra in NYC for 500 and 800-hour certification trainings and studied in Los Angeles, CA before that.
In 2017, Holly founded Yoga Is Vegan; a project focused on inspiring yogis to go vegan. Each week she interviews and features yogis from around the world on her podcast and blog. Notable guests include Seane Corn, Sharon Gannon, Dharma Mittra, James Aspey, Ana Forrest, Boho Beautiful founders Juliana & Mark Spicoluk and Talia Sutra.
This week, Sharon and Holly spoke about why they feel "yoga is vegan", the emotions behind our food choices, and the difficulty in making and breaking habits.
