Every single moment of my sobriety became devoted to this future, and I actually tried to quit teaching more than once, like I wanted to quit right away, and he's like you're not ready, like you don't have any income, any business.
Imagine finding your way to sobriety through the ancient practice of yoga. That's exactly what Alex McRoberts did, and her story is nothing short of inspiring. In this episode of 'Sober Stories', host Beth Bowen chats with Alex, the voice behind @soberyogagirlpodcast and the founder of The Mindful Life Practice. They dive into how Alex's journey to sobriety began with yoga and how mindfulness has been a cornerstone of her recovery.
Alex opens up about the challenges she faced, including mood disorders and suicidal thoughts in her early days of sobriety. She shares how yoga not only helped her stay sober but also gave her a new sense of purpose and direction in life. Beth and Alex also explore the surprising prevalence of alcohol in the health and wellness industry and discuss how yogic philosophy aligns with a sober lifestyle.
One particularly intriguing part of their conversation is about a tarot reading that dramatically shifted Alex's path. Now based in Bali, Alex has created a global online community through Sober Curious Yoga, helping people from all walks of life rethink their relationship with alcohol. This episode is a heartfelt conversation filled with wisdom, hope, and the powerful reminder that community and mindfulness can be transformative in the journey to sobriety.
