I don’t think I’ve said this enough lately:

This journey is your own but you’re not alone

We’re interconnected beings, each living our own unique stories with many points along the way in which we can connect and relate to each other.

It’s like we’re an Earth sized venn diagram, each person’s journey is a circle and various pieces of our experiences overlap with others’. Each story interwoven one way or another, held together with the common threads of human experience.

The human experience being the vast array of emotions that we feel - love, hope, despair, anger, fear, compassion, acceptance, peace….

In this episode, hospice nurse and yoga teacher, Cory Angel shares the story of her Yoga journey. She shares the benefits that she got from yoga including how her practice has helped her through injury, grief, perfectionism and ultimately changed the way she sees the world.

What I like most is that Cory is a wizard at bringing her lessons from the mat and into real life!

As she says, “Who you are on the mat is who you are in real life”

Listen in and see where your own story might connect with hers!

Topic Summary:

  • Learning to take what you need “what do I need right now?”
