The practice of yoga just keeps reminding me that it's inwards, inwards, inwards.
Ever thought yoga could be a lifeline for chronic pain and addiction recovery? In this episode of HUM Zinger, hosts Sue Newton and Mike Davies sit down with Deana Lee, a certified yoga teacher from Calgary. Deana's story is one of resilience and transformation. She opens up about how yoga has been more than just exercise—it's been a way to reconnect with herself, her body, and others.
Having battled chronic back pain for years, Deana found relief through Critical Alignment Yoga Therapy (CAT). But that's not all. Deana also shares her journey with addiction, celebrating four years of sobriety thanks to the combined wisdom of yoga and 12-step programs. If you're curious about how yoga can aid in recovery, this episode is a must-listen. Deana offers practical tips for starting a yoga practice, discusses different styles, and highlights the importance of community support.
She even touches on how yoga benefits adolescents, helping with posture and mobility. Plus, there's a candid discussion about self-love and acceptance in the face of challenges like alopecia. And don't miss the fun twist at the end with the Hum Zinger question! This episode is packed with insights and inspiration for anyone looking to incorporate yoga into their recovery journey.
