Signs of grief aren’t just external, it impacts our physical health internally more than we think. 


In this episode together, I am excited to be joined by Rachel Posner. Rachel is a yoga therapist, mindfulness coach, counselor, and entrepreneur. She is passionate about helping people understand their nervous system and rewire their brains to change the way their bodies and minds respond to stress. Combining neuroscience and psychology, Rachel teaches people personalized mindfulness techniques practices to dissolve stress, build resilience and thrive.  


Throughout this episode, Rachel talks with me about how grief impacts our nervous system and what we can do to lessen the effects. You will hear what she says is the first step in grieving, ways you can breathe properly to help increase relaxation, why it’s important to be intentional about what you’re thinking, and more. Stick around to the end to hear Rachel guide us through a calming mindfulness practice.
