Scenario

When yoga group dynamics become more harmful than healing

Our meditation group has been practicing together for three years but two members keep correcting everyone else's form and it's making the rest of us tense and self-conscious. We came together to support each other's practice but now it feels more like being judged, and those of us who are bothered don't know how to address it without causing drama.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Well-meaning correction is destroying the safe container needed for vulnerable practice.
