What is a #BitcoinYoga class? I asked myself the same thing when I was asked to teach my first Bitcoin Yoga class on AccessTribe (npub14w9…znc2) 😆 At first glance, these two concepts may seem unrelated, but they share some striking commonalities. After some deep thinking and meditating, I realized some unmistakable parallels between Bitcoin and Yoga.
Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network of nodes, without any central authority. It promotes financial freedom, independence, and low time preference behavior. This decentralized nature and transparency align with the core principles of yogic philosophy, which promote unity, trust, and selfless service. Yoga can be seen as a decentralized approach to health and wellness, focusing on self-awareness and individual practice.
In the Yoga Sutras, there is a sutra that states: “Perfection in practice comes when one continues to practice with sincerity and respect for a long period of time without any interruption.” In the context of Bitcoin technology, the principle of continuous practice and sincerity can be related to the continuous chain of blocks that are mined every ten minutes.

As Jack Kruse says: “health and wealth are fundamentally linked.”
