Documentary: Breath of fire

YouTube astrologer Katie Griggs rose to fame as the face of Kundalini yoga and reinvented herself as Guru Jagat, attracting followers — including celebrities and fee-paying devotees — with promises of prosperity, physical health, and spiritual fulfillment. Breath of Fire offers a multi-decade examination of the corruption within Kundalini yoga and a portrait of a misguided guru and master manipulator, spotlighting the uneasy nexus of the American dream, self-invention, and fanatical ideology.

HBO Documentary Films presents Breath of Fire. Directors, Hayley Pappas and Smiley Stevens; executive producers, Matt Ippolito, Hayley Pappas, Smiley Stevens, Agnus Chu, Helen Estabrook, Sarah Amos, Lexy Altman, Sonia Slutsky, Jennifer O’Connell, and Lizzie Fox; co-executive producer, Hayley Phelan.
