MJ Marsden – India 2025
The India Ashram Study and Tour trip was a trip of a lifetime for me. It was a huge learning experience that I will never forget. To see yogis, and local people, in their environments, doing what they do daily, was very eye opening. There is so much to learn about the world, and about yoga. The authenticity of the devout at the ashram, temples and mosques was all very moving.
I was often way out of my comfort zone during this whole process- from reading The Ramayana- to the rickshaw ride- to monkeys on the mountain- I’m so glad I did it all! I learned a lot about my own personal beliefs and privilege. The experience has me re-evaluating various aspects of my life. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to take part in this journey and for giving me the courage to grow.
