    Allison S

    When Allison got pregnant with her first child she canceled her yoga studio membership. In this episode she is frank about her experience of pregnancy, postpartum anxiety and her journey back to yoga. Her story is special but probably not unique. Motherhood is demanding and can take us away from our mat but it can also bring us back. I took this picture of her (on the left) with her friend and SPY yoga teacher, Lauren, who can take credit for inviting her back to her practice. Grab a cup of tea (or a beer) and listen in.

    Kelly D.

    Kelly Started practicing yoga to help with her depression. Listen to her story about starting an at-home yoga practice and working with a therapist to create a multi-pronged approach to supporting her mental health. While yoga and meditation may not be able to single-handedly solve all of our mental health issues, they are a powerful adjunct to professional care. If you or someone you know is suicidal or suffering from depression please seek help. You can call 988 or connect through these online resources. https://988lifeline.org/ https://www.betterhelp.com/get-started/

    Lee T.

    Lee thought yoga was a “girl thing.” When a friend suggested he try it, he was suffering from serious back pain, using epidurals to deal with the pain,  and was willing to give it a shot. Since then he has found that yoga has not only helped his back, but also stopped his chronic migraines and helped him feel better at the age of 71 than he has in 20 years.  For Lee, learning to breathe mindfully has made a huge difference. He mentions the book Breath by James Nestor. I am a big fan as well and can wholeheartedly recommend it https://amzn.to/3qZxHbn
