I don't think anything has been darker than that. And I think for me it was having this belief that, like this is my destiny and no matter what path I need to take to get there, I'm going to get there eventually.
Imagine moving from teaching first graders in the Middle East to leading an international yoga community. That's exactly what Alexandra McRobert did. In this episode of 'Liars, Thieves, Gluttons & Whores', Alexandra shares her transformation from struggling with alcoholism and an undiagnosed mood disorder to finding peace and purpose through yoga. Her journey is a testament to the power of self-belief and community support in recovery.
Yoga became her lifeline, helping her manage her mental health and ultimately leading her to sobriety. By 2019, she was sober and on a mission to help others do the same. Alexandra's story is filled with the highs and lows of recovery. She talks about the challenges of staying sober while traveling and how she built a supportive community around yoga and mindfulness.
As a 500 Hour Registered Yoga Teacher and Certified Life Coach, she offers programs like the 90 and 180-day sober girls yoga challenges and the Sober Yoga Entrepreneur coaching program. These initiatives are designed to help women in recovery build successful lives aligned with their values. In this heartfelt conversation, Alexandra delves into the unique experiences of sober girls, the impact of travel on sobriety, and the crucial connection between mental health and addiction.
Her journey from the classroom to the yoga mat is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about creating a life that truly resonates with who you are. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the role of yoga in sobriety, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration.
