Welcome back to Roots & Space. In this week’s episode, Finding Ease in Challenge, Shieri shares a tender story from her past week involving her cat—a moment that opened the door to softening through difficulty and practicing presence in the unknown.

You’ll be invited to reflect on your own experience of resistance with two self-inquiry prompts:
 – Where in my life right now am I feeling resistance?
 – How can I soften, surrender, or bring a little more ease into that space—without needing to fix or control it?

This episode also introduces you to Nadi Shodhana, a calming breath practice to balance energy and soothe the nervous system.

Let this be a gentle reminder: even in challenge, there is space to breathe, root, and return to ease.

Welcome to the very first episode of Roots & Space. This week’s intention is simple and powerful: listen to your body, listen to your heart.

Shieri invites you into a moment of stillness to connect inward through three gentle self-reflection prompts:

1. What helps you remember to check in with your body?
2. What does your body need today?
3. How does your heart feel when you pause and listen?

You’ll also be guided through a foundational breath exploration—gently discovering your natural maximum exhale and inhale without force or strain. This practice is designed to deepen your self-awareness, soothe your nervous system, and bring you into alignment—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

Let this be your pause. Your reset. Your space to root, breathe, and begin again.
