Healing Through Yoga: Maria Salvatore's Journey with Recovery Yoga and Kula for Karma

My primary intention is to help people learn to heal themselves.
What if yoga could be the key to healing from addiction and trauma? In this episode of 'Unpause Your Life', Dr. Cali Estes and Master Coach Jenny Fontana sit down with Maria Salvatore, a seasoned yoga instructor who has transformed her own struggles into a path of healing for others. Maria, a 500-hour trained and certified yoga teacher, shares her personal story of overcoming addiction, body image issues, and broken relationships through the practice of yoga.
She explains how yoga and meditation can foster body awareness, mindfulness, and compassion, particularly for those grappling with trauma and mental health challenges. Maria's journey didn't just stop at personal healing; she has dedicated her life to helping others find the same solace. She talks about her work with Kula for Karma, a national nonprofit that offers therapeutic yoga and meditation to those in need.
Maria's mission is clear: to empower individuals to heal themselves through the practices that saved her. Throughout the episode, the conversation touches on various forms of yoga, the intersection of yoga and Twelve-Step philosophy, and the importance of destigmatizing mental health issues. Maria also discusses how shifting corporate mindsets towards mental health can make a significant impact.
This episode is a blend of heartfelt stories, practical advice, and inspiring insights, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to unpause their life and embrace a journey of self-healing.
