    Season 2 Ep#8: Relentless Grace: Meeting Trauma with Mindfulness and Radical Self-Care

    Season 2 Ep#8: Relentless Grace: Meeting Trauma with Mindfulness and Radical Self-Care

    In this episode, we speak with Elizabeth Spring.  Elizabeth is survivor of horrific traumas in her life.  She speaks so eloquently, courageously and vulnerably about her traumas and the journey from some very dark places to a life with light and love and joy in it.    So much of this journey of healing was made possible by her deep commitment to mindfulness practice as a way of life and a way meeting difficulty and suffering.   We found Elizabeth and her story to be quite extraordinary and inspiring.  After listening to the episode, if you want to follow Elizabeth on Instagram you can find her @infinite.pause_abilities
