In honor of the upcoming Mental Health Awareness month, we welcome fellow podcaster, Dayna of dayloustyles, to share her amazing story of how she improved her mental health by practicing yoga. For those of you who are new to yoga, or not into *yet* this is the perfect conversation to listen in.
Dayna didn’t always believe in yoga. It wasn’t until she started finding all kinds of incredible health (physical and mental) benefits that can be received by doing it. Knowing what she knows about yoga now, she believes yoga is for EVERYONE. It has become her mission to teach yoga around the world to help people heal and improve their mental health and well-being.
In Dayna’s words, yoga is so much more than exercise or stretching. It’s about meditating and being one with yourself. It’s about improving your well-being and your mental health. We are so proud of Dayna for all that she has overcome and her desire to help others overcome their struggles by teaching them what helped her overcome her’s.
Join us for this inspirational conversation with Yogini Dayna. We know you will be feeling inspired to do yoga after listening to this episode! :)
Xoxo,

**READ DAYNA’S FULL BIO**
Dayna Louvenia is a Wellness Blogger, fellow podcaster and Yoga Teacher in training. She didn’t always take yoga seriously, but now it is her passion to show people that yoga is for everyone.
Dayna has always been reserved and kept to herself. She always knew that her mental health was on the rocks and hit rock bottom during her junior year of high school. She started experiencing suicidal thoughts, and it was a very difficult time for her. Thankfully, she had a few things that saved her. Coming from a spiritual family and people praying over her, and her love for traveling is what kept her from wanting to end her life. She didn’t want to miss out on being able to travel, experience different cultures, and seeing the world.
Fast forward to April 2020, things started to become difficult again. Dayna was furloughed and found herself experiencing mild depression. She was tired of feeling this way and turned to her faith and asked God to take the feeling away. That’s when she stumbled across a Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) program that was offering a discount.
That moment changed Dayna’s life forever. She began Yoga Teacher Training that same month and has never looked back. She has been enjoying the journey ever since and learning so much about the practice. It has had an amazing impact on her mental health, well-being, confidence, and her overall sense of self-esteem.
Now it has become Dayna’s goal to learn as much as she can about the practice and teach it all over the world to help people heal and improve their mental health & well-being.
