And now it's like I can do whatever I want to do, I can pursue whatever I'm passionate about, like the sky is the limit, like I can do anything. And I mean freedom is the perfect thing, the perfect word.
Imagine facing years of anxiety and drinking, only to find your way to peace and sobriety on a yoga mat. That’s the journey of Liz McKean, a dedicated yoga teacher and person in recovery.
