Drop in with me to hear some of the exciting news on how yoga can absolutely help us age differently and : in how it takes care of us in d, body, and soul. Check it out for more on the how and why.. 

How Yoga Helps Us Age Better 

I am so pumped to keep sharing with you what I have been learning and realizing about how our systems like yoga are really designed to help us learn to work with ourselves, take care of our inner environment, and do that emotional healing that's needed in order for us to tap into the true joy, love and peace within. Yoga teaches that in life we can develop patterns of storing experiences and emotions in a way that is now called trauma; we start to learn that our best bet is to learn to be able to work with ourselves, take care of ourselves, become more mindful and apply an energetic and spiritual approach in releasing and resolving these blockages. Finding a way to feel OK inside is what it's all about, and really learning to rewire our m understanding of how this is something we find within versus through manipulating or chasing that from others. 

How Yoga Promotes Emotional Healing ❤️‍

Even as this is at the core of the teachings of yoga and many systems, I've been Trippin on how, as we learn to relax the mind more and yes, that means quiet it, we can really shift and change the direction of our mental health, emotional states, relationships, and lives. As we get into our practices of mindfulness and meditation, we start to witness our neurosis more, and how much we're letting that psyche and our old trauma, emotional and mental patterns and, as yoga calls it, our samskaras drive the bus. 

Relaxing the Mind as a Power Skill in Mental Health 

I am so excited to share this special episode with you where I take you with me as I receive a cupping therapy session with expert practitioner, Ann Van. She talks me through the treatment and shares some of the potent powers and benefits of this ancient healing technique. Cupping is known to help resolve things like our trauma, and we even get into how such things could help with issues like codependency! What a concept! Mind blown by this session. I hope you have fun listening like I did being in on this conversation. 

Cupping Therapy for Codependency? 

Wow, I definitely enjoyed this conversation and time spent with these two exceptional practitioners and awesome friends of mine, Pamela Gerber, owner of Blue Healer Yoga in Huntington Beach, Certified Yoga Therapist, and professor, with Christian Reid: Sound Healing Master teacher, and Yoga and conscious community teacher and leader. Together we delve into the topic of "healing", and what are some important aspects and integrations that we are each making in our understanding of what's possible for us as humans, and finding our balance, becoming more whole, and honoring our inherent connection, and yet diverse ways of being and even healing. ❤️‍
