In today's interview, Mia and Adrienne sit down with Maddie. Maddie spent 10 years as a professional, competitive Irish Dancer traveling all over the world. She first utilized Yoga as a recovery practice after pushing herself with tons of strength training. Yet, throughout her time on her mat, she recognized that Yoga provided her a space to slow down, trust the process and put in the work to truly appreciate and love herself.

Yoga Sutra 1.14 by Swami J

When yoga is practiced continuously over time, and with devotion and sincerity, it will become a firm resting place.

"The words you speak become the house you live in." - poet Hafiz

In this episode, Adrienne guides you through a journaling practice to explore how you think about yourself.

Our brains are hard-wired to find the worst case scenarios in every situation. So, often times, we will criticize or limit ourselves due to our inner bully.

Our Yoga practice teaches us that we have the ability to find peace and comfort within ourselves. So grab your journal, get comfy and take some time to retrain your thought patterns!
