That One Time Yoga Saved My Life

Can yoga help when you hit rock bottom? It's just me and my co-host Mon, and I tell the story of the 2019 breakup that sent me into the darkest six months of my life, and the hot flow class where my looping thoughts went quiet for the first time in months.

We get into how breathing through my nose in a hot room became the way I handle stress, the line I repeat at the gym when I want to quit, and how audiobooks at double speed got me past 100 books. Mon shares the self talk that got her through a trek in Nepal and her bucket list of 179 things, and I tell you about the $250,000 Range Rover test drive that cured me of wanting one.

If yoga feels too slow, I explain why that might be the sign you need it most.
