On the Psychological Path to Liberation w/ Dr. Devin Banks

Myriad Yoga Podcast

The quote that graces Dr. Devin Banks's website says it all “When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else.

If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else.” - Toni Morrison

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Devin Banks, a PHD in Psychology, an assistant professor at the University of Missouri at St. Louis, as well as a beloved former student and forever teacher at PI. We scale the conversation of mukta- or liberation that already exists within us through the lens of our current socio-political situation and the omnipresent psychology of our current culture and country.

A few highlights from our discussion as it relates to finding mukta (liberation):

• Awareness is key
• try the :16 of awareness
• Check out her favorite psychologists: Dr. Rheeda Walker, Dr. Riana Elyse Anderson, and Carl Jung
