By being clear about our subjectivities, we can begin to dialogue openly with the subjectivities of others, fostering “intersubjectivityâ€.

And yoga philosophy is nothing if not the language we use to share the ineffable experiences of practice, regardless of who we are, who we’ve studied with, or what our goals may be.
