I invited Constanza Eliana Chinea, a Latinx certified yoga instructor, on the Belonging podcast to open up a bigger conversation happening in the wellness and yoga industry about decolonization, access, and privilege. Constanza Eliana not only teaches yoga, but she specifically works with yogis and entrepreneurs to decolonize their yoga practice, create equity for teachers of color, and build inclusive spaces in the yoga community.This episode is not here to tell you that you cannot practice yoga. In this conversation, Constanza Eliana shares what she's seeing in the yoga industry that's causing harm, how we can make this practice more equitable, why to reconsider the use of "namaste," what to look for in yoga studios, and how to bring up concerns to bring them into deeper integrity.Find show notes for this episode here: https://beccapiastrelli.com/constanza-eliana-chinea/Follow Constanza Elianza on Instagram: https://instagram.com/eliana.chinea/Follow Becca on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beccapiastrelli/My book Root & Ritual: Timeless Ways to Connect to Land, Lineage, Community, and the Self is now available wherever books are sold! My intention with this book is for it to be your guide to reconnecting with the earth, your ancestors, and your communities as you come home to your whole self. Despite our best efforts, our modern world leaves so many of us feeling isolated, unworthy, and alone. We’re unrooted from the land, untethered from our lineages, disconnected from our communities, and separated from our deepest sense of self. Root & Ritual is meant to be a pathway back to connection and wholeness through rituals, recipes, and ancestral wisdom. Find more information at: http://rootandritualbook.com/
