Surviving Modern Yoga

Surviving Modern Yoga, grounded in investigative research and survivor stories, critically examines the abuse and harmful culture surrounding influential yoga leader Pattabhi Jois. The book explores how cult-like dynamics and institutional self-interest can obscure the truth of such abuses, while also providing practical tools for readers to recognize and navigate high-demand groups and manipulative practices. Through personal reflections and survivor voices, it encourages awareness and agency in safeguarding oneself against exploitation within spiritual communities.
