Dark Side of The Mat Podcast—"Bikram: 26 and Ew", "Bikram Part II: Hot Tea From a TT OG" and "Bikram III: One Last Cup of Tea"

"How Yoga Works" by Geshe Michael Roach
An amazing book on the Yoga Sutras that has been sitting on my bookshelf for years. Read it stat! I wish I had read it far earlier.
"Living Untethered: Beyond the Human Predicament" by Michael A. Singer
Hopefully, you’ve read Singer’s first book, "The Untethered Soul." If not, pick that up first and read it. Incredible book. Then I’d recommend diving into this, his latest book, that goes a bit deeper on some of the yogic concepts he presents in the first book.
Get ready: It’s transformational stuff.
