What does it really mean to heal—from within?
In this episode, Helen sits down with Swiss-born osteopath, yoga teacher and author Mirjam Wagner to explore a deeply personal journey of transformation, resilience and self-discovery.
From a life that looked “perfect” on the outside to a breaking point that forced her to listen inward, Mirjam shares how physical symptoms, emotional pain and life upheaval led her to completely redefine her path. Now based in Mallorca, her work blends osteopathy, Chinese medicine, yin yoga and mentorship to guide others back to themselves.
Together, they explore:

• What it means to “heal from within” 
• Why modern life keeps us stuck in imbalance 
• The power of yin yoga in a fast-paced, yang-driven world 
• Hormones, cycles and reconnecting with nature 
• The moment when “the soul gets sick - and the body follows” 
• Why letting go is often more powerful than adding more

This is a conversation about slowing down, listening deeply, and finding your way back to yourself, wherever you are in life.
