In The Circle

24. Why is Yoga Important in Recovery?


Listen Later

Today, on In The Circle, we have the pleasure of discussing the role of yoga in recovery and how we can overcome people's innate resistance to the practice. Chris asks… If freedom from addiction is possible, and yoga's the medicine, how then do we make this medicine more accessible?

This is such an important episode because there really is no one left on the planet unaffected by addiction. You either experience it yourself or someone you love is going through it. And if you really want to take your recovery all the way, yoga is going to be a part of it. 

Let's come to understand both yoga and recovery from a much broader perspective and see what's waiting for the person in recovery who embraces both paths.

Tommy discusses:

• Chris asks about the preconceived notions around yoga

• Defining yoga as calming the mind

• Breaking barriers of culture, region, and language

• Can a devout Christian practice yoga in alignment with their beliefs?

• Moving toward your own truth

• Bringing yogic practices in our recovery work
