Hi and welcome to this week's episode of the Yoga Live podcast. I'm Liz Layne, your host. Today I'm talking to Madison, a yoga practitioner who is also an ANFT Certified Forest Therapy guide. Madison is mobile - she lives out of an awesome bus, and guides both in-person forest therapy walks as well as virtual walks.

If you're wondering what Forest Therapy is, it's also commonly known as Forest Bathing! Madison tells us everything we need to know in our conversation.

As you listen to this episode, you'll hear themes like:

• How to weave yoga practice (and poses) into life's moments

• Feeling rooted in any space, and how yoga and nature support us in this

• Yoga is more than just what you do on your yoga mat

• The importance of connection to Nature in our lives, and how our bodies respond to immersion in Nature

• And from that connected space, how to create a vision and work with change in our lives to invite what fulfills our true purpose

Tune in to hear her story, which includes her sharing the experience of being on retreat in Joshua Tree, California (spoiler alert, we are co-hosting a retreat there this November!).

And make sure to catch the next episode of the podcast for a meditation-type practice with Madison - she will share a forest therapy invitation with us!
