How Yoga Cures Depression & Making Poetry from It | with Lavanya EP9 House of Yog(a)

If you're going through a hard time mentally, we hope this podcast episode will help you. In this episode of House of Yog(a), I sat down with Lavanya Talati - a poet, yoga teacher, and aspiring singer-songwriter - to discuss her journey with depression, bullying, and making art out of painful life experiences. Lavanya shares how poetry, yoga, and songwriting have supported her through darker periods of life, and how yoga has served as a practice of observation - allowing her to accept where she is, even on the hardest days. Rather than using yoga to escape pain, Lavanya speaks honestly about sitting with it, witnessing it, and letting creativity arise from that awareness. We also discuss how and why teachers and creatives should take intentional breaks from our craft/service. Lavanya has self-published a poetry book titled Internal Dialogues, which stands as a powerful, physical example of what vulnerability looks like when it is shared courageously with the world. Furthermore, she teaches yoga through the RAA Foundation in Vadodara, Gujarat - a foundation founded by her mother with a special mission rooted in compassion, service, and awareness. We begin today's episode with a grounding pranayama practice - Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) - to balance the nervous system and connect the rational and emotional hemispheres of the brain, and close with a guided meditation from Lavanya integrating pain and welcoming in light. ⚠️ Content note: This episode discusses depression and emotional pain, held gently through the lens of yoga, awareness, and healing.
