Whatever it is that you really do desire in the deepest part of your heart and soul is available to you, to me, to every one of us, and the key to it is: within is going in, and so the meditations and working with the mind and the beliefs and the visualizations and everything that we've been talking about this whole time is the key to it.
Imagine being sent to foster homes at just six years old after both your parents succumb to drug addiction. That was the beginning of Dashama's journey, but it's far from the end. In this episode of 'Knockin' Doorz Down', host Jason LaChance dives into Dashama's incredible story of resilience and transformation. Despite a tumultuous start, she excelled academically and athletically, only to face her own battles with substance abuse and sexual trauma later on.
Arrests, expulsion, and a life-threatening accident marked her lowest points, but they also set the stage for her remarkable comeback. Burned out and depressed from work, Dashama embarked on an inner quest for healing. She found solace in yoga, a practice that not only healed her physically but also brought her profound mental peace. Through yoga and meditation, she discovered the power of self-healing and dedicated her life to spreading this message.
Today, Dashama is a beacon of hope, training yoga teachers and life coaches worldwide with her unique blend of ancient wisdom and modern techniques. In this heartfelt conversation, Dashama shares how meditation and mantras played a crucial role in her recovery. She talks about the benefits of breath work and biohacking, techniques that helped her reverse aging effects and rewire her brain's neural pathways.
Her story underscores the deep connection between mental health and addiction, showing that true healing comes from within. Dashama also hints at her upcoming book and online training programs focused on achieving a flow state—a concept that has significant implications for addiction recovery and mental health. Her journey is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for resilience and transformation. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on overcoming life's toughest challenges, this episode is a must-listen.
