To be healthy is a state of mind and heart...I'm wondering if that state of presence could be translated into inner peace or some form of equanimity.
What if you could find peace and strength through yoga while battling cancer? In this heartfelt episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Jean Di Carlo-Wagner, a yoga teacher and cancer survivor who has turned her personal struggle into a mission to help others. Jean’s journey began in her twenties when she started practicing yoga to manage anxiety. However, her life took a dramatic turn in 2003 when she was diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
This life-altering experience led her to specialize in yoga for cancer patients, focusing on therapeutic practices that nurture the mind, body, and spirit. Jean’s story is not just about surviving cancer; it’s about thriving and giving back. She has become a grassroots cancer activist, advocating for research and early detection on Capitol Hill. Her classes in San Diego and at cancer symposiums across the U.S. have touched countless lives.
Jean also trains yoga teachers worldwide through her online program, 'The Art & Science of Teaching Yoga to Cancer Patients and Survivors'. In this episode, Jean shares her insights on the profound connection between yoga and healing. She discusses how breathing exercises and meditative movements can significantly improve the quality of life for cancer patients.
The conversation also delves into broader themes such as the purpose of the human experience, the roles of love and freedom, and the healing power of energy and music. Whether you're a cancer patient or someone looking to deepen your connection to your mind, body, and spirit, Jean’s story offers inspiration and practical wisdom. Tune in to hear how yoga can be a beacon of hope and healing in the fight against cancer.
