Hi my yoga friends, and welcome to this week's episode of the Yoga Live podcast. I'm Liz Layne, your host. Today I'm talking to Ali, a yoga instructor and licensed therapist in Denver, Colorado.

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

• Finding yoga - how and when yoga arrived in Ali's life, and why it was so powerful for her at the time

• The capital S "self" - what that is, and what it means for you

• Yoga as an access to our inner world - how it can not only shine light on our relationships with how we feel our physical bodies in space, but also how it can build our ability to sense what's going on inside

• Trauma - what it is, how our bodies respond to it, and how yoga can help

• And as her website describes it, "Mindful Yoga for the Whole Human" - how Ali delivers this in a yoga class that includes somatic practices

Tune in to hear her story, and make sure to catch the next episode for a meditation practice with Ali!
