Can yoga actually rewire the brain?

Rose Alicia Allen says yes—and shows you how.  Expect nerdy movement science, real talk on trauma-informed teaching, and enough lightbulb moments to rework your next class.

Inside the episode:
🧠 What your brain might be doing before you ever feel pain
💥 Why flexibility isn’t just about stretching—and what might be missing
😬 The weird thing hypermobile bodies and anesthesia patients have in common
✨ A quirky concept called the “threat bucket” that explains way more than you’d think
🌀 The sneaky way your brain maps your body—and why it matters in every pose
🧘🏻‍♀️ What happens when students start wiggling in Warrior II
🧭 A tiny cue tweak that can shift an entire sequence
📉 Why more choice in class can feel… uncomfortable (and why that’s a good thing)

Ready to geek out and rethink everything from cueing to pain to proprioception?

Hit play, send it to your favorite anatomy nerd, and let this episode rewire how you move, teach, and talk about yoga.
