Escaping the Trap of 'Should': Kari Doherty's Insightful Yoga Journey

I don't believe that my higher power has a should list on me. So if you're looking for something new, this book is just really incredible.
Ever catch yourself thinking 'I should do this' or 'I should be better at that'? In this episode of the Luminous Recovery Yoga Podcast, Kari Doherty tackles the pervasive and often destructive power of the word 'should'. Kari, an experienced yoga instructor and recovery advocate, shares her personal battles with the 'shoulds' that weigh us down and offers a fresh perspective on self-compassion and acceptance.
The episode dives into how the word 'should' creates unnecessary pressure and self-criticism, and how we can shift our mindset to foster a more supportive inner dialogue. Kari’s unique blend of yogic philosophy and twelve-step recovery wisdom provides practical tools to help listeners break free from these mental chains. One memorable takeaway is her belief that 'a higher power doesn’t have a should list for us', encouraging us to let go of societal expectations and embrace our true selves.
To top it off, Kari guides listeners through a gentle yoga practice designed to release these internal pressures and cultivate a sense of presence and peace. This episode is perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed by self-imposed obligations or seeking a kinder, more accepting relationship with themselves.
