    Gwendolen Warnick l Unpacking Trauma and Honouring the Complexities of Life Through Yoga

    Introducing my dear friend Gwenny! In this episode we touch on many things such as unpacking trauma, being a female in tech, how Yoga helps Gwenny remain present and aware, and harnessing our vital energy. I've learned so many things from my dear friend and she's been so helpful/supportive during my own transitions. Forever grateful for the long lasting friendships I have made while living in Australia.

    My Story: an exploration of how trauma informed yoga found me and ways to support an unstable nervous system

    I thought it was important before we dive into conversation with my guests for you to get to know me better. Therefore, episode 1 is about my story...my journey understanding, processing, and soothing a nervous system post traumatic event. My intention is to create space for all of us to learn, respect, and appreciate each other's experience so we can cultivate a more compassionate world.  I have to say it was really odd to record this on my own in my tiny bedroom! I sat on my bolster in my jammies, a cup of tea in my hand, and spilled my heart out. It was another major learning curve and although I feel like I could edit and re-record forever...I have to trust my own self and know that similar to teaching a 60 min yoga class, I can't get everything I want to say in one go! Please reach out if you have any questions or are interested in sharing your own story.  Om Shanti Shanti Shanti  xx Madeleine xx --- Come join the family! https://www.instagram.com/__offthemat__/ https://www.facebook.com/offthemat.mbongyoga http://mbongyoga.com/ off the mat is a one woman production platform.

Madeleine has also observed the detrimental effects on the emphasis of the physical practice of Yoga in the Western world and the overall cultural appropriation of Yoga. This leads to but is not limited to: gaslighting, body shame, and exclusion of BIPOC and LGBTQIA communities. Madeleine is interested in listening, creating supportive safe spaces, and learning ways to take the practices of Yoga (unity, connection, compassion) off the mat, out of the studio, and into the real World. --- Come join the family! https://www.instagram.com/__offthemat__/ https://www.facebook.com/offthemat.mbongyoga http://mbongyoga.com/ off the mat is a one woman production platform.
