RITUAL by Sageborn

Bailey Evans joins Stephanie today to discuss the ways yoga has impacted her life and how doing more yoga is a good thing.

"I started doing yoga before I had a back surgery under the advisement of my spinal surgeon...which was incredible because this was 12 years ago...yoga was a thing but not so mainstream that you would expect a recommendation from a surgeon that said you need to get really strong and you also need to do a lot of yoga. So, he gifted me this. Honestly. So after back surgery yoga was really the only thing that helped me manage my pain. It's been a big part of my life ever since." - Bailey Evans

Anna Rapson joins Stephanie Bigart today to discuss ways to overcome anxiety and, how facing it, can build resilience into our lives. She discusses several daily practices to help us deal with uncertainty and calm our minds.

"Many of us tend to assume that if we worry enough about something we will be better prepared when something bad happens. Or, even that our frequent worrying will prevent it from happening. This is actually called magical thinking. It has a name because a lot of people do it and we know it does not work."

She is currently in private practice in Eastern Montana where she lives with her 2 daughters.
