Adam Sobel has been teaching free yoga classes for the last 15 years to a dedicated sangha of yogis in New Jersey. He spent 16 years studying with Sri Dharma Mittra and has been studying exclusively with Gokulacandra Das for the past three years. Additionally, he is the Chef and owner of The Cinnamon Snail, a vegan food truck and restaurant. Along with his family, he also rehabilitates wounded and abandoned wild animals to give them a better shot at survival.
In this episode, you'll hear from Adam on:
- How and why Adam became a father, a student of particular lineage of yoga, and a vegan at the same time
- Drawing healthy boundaries between running a food business and maintaining a dedicated yoga practice
- What he has learned from working in grey legality and black markets to provide mainstream culture with delicious, ethical food
- Duality, non-duality, and the middle road — and examining these philosophical concepts through asana practice
