In this episode, I’m joined by Ray Duhaney, founder of Ve Kitchen—a highly acclaimed vegan restaurant in London—and an extraordinary yoga teacher. Ray shares his deeply personal journey, revealing the physical and emotional challenges he’s faced, including a debilitating hip injury that led him to discover yoga. Through his practice, Ray not only rehabilitated his body but also uncovered how unresolved trauma had taken root in his hips and core. Yoga became the key to processing these emotions, quieting the ego, and embracing inner stillness. In our conversation, we also explore:The connection between attachment and sufferingHow trauma and emotions can become stored in the bodyThe eight limbs of yoga, focusing on Ahimsa (non-harming) and Brahmacharya (moderation), and how these principles have shaped Ray's journey toward self-awareness and personal growthAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
