In this Spanish‑language episode of the Just in Time podcast, host Mélanie Berthaud welcomes yoga teacher and myth‑studier Gabriela Tavera to explore how Hindu goddess archetypes (the Shaktis) can serve as narrative tools for personal and collective renewal during the COVID‑19 pandemic. The conversation opens with a reflection on the loss of grand narratives in modern Western society and the need for stories, especially for women seeking empowerment. Gabriela explains the role of myth in yoga practice and introduces three luminous goddesses—Saraswati, Lakshmi, and Parvati—detailing their iconography, symbolic attributes, and how each can be invoked to address specific inner challenges: Saraswati for intelligence, speech and creative expression; Lakshmi for abundance, inner strength and overcoming personal battles; Parvati for balance, discipline, playfulness, and fidelity. They discuss the relevance of these archetypes for contemporary women, emphasizing intelligent activism, the importance of not losing time, and cultivating sobriety. The episode references Sally Kempton’s book El despertar de la Shakti and Susana Ávila’s work on Indian mythology, and proposes a future episode on the “darker” Shakti goddesses. The dialogue is conversational, interspersed with personal anecdotes (walking with a dog, pandemic reflections) and poetic quotations, aiming to reactivate thought, desire, and the power of mythic storytelling in yoga practice.
