EP48: The Benefits of Yoga

Yoga, for me, was a life-changer. When I first discovered it for myself firsthand in 2006, I went in blind but open. Eager for the experience, actually. And I had always heard that you are what you think about. But at that point in my life, I didn’t find it easy to shift my thoughts in order to stay empowered and happy. I didn’t know how to use my thoughts to serve me and my desires.

But this one day, this first day on my yoga mat, changed all that forever. Continue reading “EP48: The Benefits of Yoga”

EP43: Self-Actualization & Self-Discovery

Self-actualization and self-discovery–which are commonly referred to as personal development, self-help, and self-improvement–all titles that have the “quest for perfection” in common.
