Today’s episode of YogaWorld combines the world of yoga with the principles of coaching. In a time when we are increasingly seeking inner peace, mental strength, and emotional balance, yoga and coaching have proven to be effective tools to support our personal journey of growth. Yoga is a millennia-old practice that connects body, mind, and soul. It offers not only physical strength and flexibility but also deep spiritual experiences. Through meditation, asana, and pranayama, we can expand our consciousness, reduce stress, and find inner peace. But what happens when we combine this powerful practice with modern coaching techniques? This question is answered by yoga teacher Sandra Walkenhorst in conversation with host Susanne Mors.

Sandra uncovers exciting connections and parallels between yoga philosophy and psychology and explains why it is very helpful for a yoga teacher to have basic psychological knowledge. Then, Sandra talks about the role of a coach and provides examples of various fields of application that can be enriched by coaching tools. She also explains, using various examples, how the combination of yoga and coaching can be implemented in practice. She emphasizes the importance of yoga teachers working on themselves and practicing introspection. Finally, Sandra offers valuable tips on how yoga teachers can act when strong emotional states are triggered during a session.
