The Funny Thing About Yoga

Holiday Reflections: Family, Growth, and Yoga's Teachings


Listen Later

In this episode, we get personal and candid about the holiday season—both the joy and the stress it brings. We chat about our new Thanksgiving traditions, the old ones we cherish, and the many personal memories tied to childhood, family dynamics, and a whole lot of dysfunction. From navigating grief and setting boundaries to reflecting on mental health and holiday stress, we cover it all.

We also explore how turning to your yoga practice during this time can help cultivate peace and resilience. Drawing from yogic wisdom, we discuss satya (truth), ahimsa (nonviolence), and santosha (contentment), weaving these principles into the stories we share. It's heartfelt, raw, and a reminder that even the messiest family gatherings can hold lessons for growth.
