Yoga is not a religion, it's a tool to connect you with yourself.
Imagine discovering a path to recovery that not only heals your body but also your mind and spirit. That's exactly what happened to Yancy Scot Schwartz. In this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, host Omar Pinto chats with Yancy, a dedicated yoga teacher who turned his life around through the practice of yoga and pranayama. Yancy’s journey began in the Dominican Republic, where he took his first yoga class during a skate tour.
Initially, he was drawn to yoga for its physical benefits, which improved his skateboarding. However, as he delved deeper into the practice, he discovered its profound impact on his mental and emotional well-being. From attending the Yoga to the People Teacher Certification to completing advanced training with renowned teachers like Sri Dharma Mittra, Yancy’s commitment to yoga became a cornerstone of his recovery. He shares how meditation and pranayama practices helped him connect with himself in ways traditional therapies couldn’t.
This episode isn’t just about striking poses; it’s about finding balance and peace within. Yancy talks about the importance of community support and how a plant-based diet complements his holistic approach to wellness. Whether you're new to yoga or looking to deepen your practice, Yancy’s story offers practical tips and inspiration for incorporating these powerful tools into your own recovery journey. Tune in to hear how yoga can transform not just your body, but your entire life.
