I believe the invitation of life is to become ourselves, live fully and freely, and then, if you are a student of yoga, to extend that full, free, safe living out to all beings everywhere. But how often do we get to see someone really do that?
Today I have a treat for you: a person who is doing just that. Becoming. My friend Miles Borrero (he/him) has survived fronting a Latin rock band, riding horses competitively, acting on various stages across the US, and nannying a six-year-old. He has been Catholic, Jewish, and a frequent guest at Krishna’s house, and has lived life as a boy, a girl, a woman, a man, and something in between. Now a senior yoga teacher who leads retreats and trainings all over the world, Miles is passionate about dismantling the systems within ourselves that keep us small. And he has written a beautiful book called Beautiful Monster: A Becoming. The book reads like one long dharma talk, full of creative writing and yogic wisdom.
In this episode you’ll hear:
how Miles was Rodney Yee’s best student even though they never met
why was it yoga teaching that really stuck for Miles, despite having so many jobs and creative endeavors
what it was like for Miles to teach in his native language after learning to teach yoga in English first
all about Miles’ teacher Raghunath and what Miles learned from him
what changed in Miles’ asana practice after his top surgery and taking testosterone
