Hot yoga for 1 year and hooked!
💛 Why I Practice:
Grief brought me to my mat in 2010 after losing my brother to su***de . What began as a lifeline is now a non-negotiable. Yoga has carried me through trauma, three pregnancies, a corporate career, and motherhood to Three beautiful children.
At 40, I need both movement and mindfulness — and a reminder to slow down. I return to my mat and this quote:
✨ “What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
