World Environment Day 2026: A Yogic Call to Wonder

Yoga reflects the importance of balance as harmony within, among and between inner and outer worlds. When greed, dissociation, overconsumption, and disregard for natural limits dominate human behaviour, these are symptoms of us being lost on the inside and systemic ecological imbalance follows. The ‘climate crisis’ is a sanitised and dissociative way of naming our loss. It calls insufficiently clearly for external action (but what, after all, is truly external). It misses the need for inner transformation, for recognising sustainable living begins with a recognition that there’s only one of us here.
