The Hello Someday Podcast For Sober Curious Women Ep16: Yoga For Recovery + Essential Oils For Healing With Taryn Strong
Have you ever wondered what exactly is Yoga For Recovery or Trauma Informed Yoga?
- How does it differ from Bikram, Ashtanga, Power Yoga or Kundalini?
- Can yoga help you heal your mind, body and spirit as you walk away from drinking?
- How can releasing a traumatic experience from your body through yoga help you heal before illness, chronic fatigue, dis-ease, autoimmune disorders may manifest.
And what about essential oils?
- How do they work and are they worth the hype?
- What’s the difference between all the different options?
- What’s the oil of a Buoyant Heart? The Inner Child? Energetic Boundaries? Sexual Healing? Truth and Connection?
Today we’re here to answer these questions and more with one of my favorite teachers in recovery, yoga and life: Taryn Strong,
Taryn is a founder of the SHE RECOVERS Foundation - a global grassroots movement currently consisting of more than 300,000 women in or seeking recovery from substance use disorders, other behavioral health issues and/or life challenges.
Taryn is a trauma-informed yoga instructor, recovery coach and an aromatherapist.
Taryn has developed a unique yoga retreat program and led over 40 yoga for recovery retreats since 2012.
She is also the host of the SHE RECOVERS Podcast and most recently created and taught the inaugural trauma informed SHE RECOVERS Yoga Teacher Training Program.
Taryn identifies as being in recovery from trauma, a substance use disorder and self-injurious behavior and believes that recovery is a journey to wholeness – in which we take care of our mind, body and spirit.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why healing your body is an important part of your sobriety journey.
- How essential oils can play a huge role in your recovery
- How balancing the energy around your heart can help you heal from codependency, isolation, depression, or fear of intimacy.
- Why a grounding yoga practice can help center you when you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed or unsettled.
- Taryn’s step-by-step morning meditation practice (which can be done without ever leaving your bed!)
A strong yoga practice and essential oils can be an important tool in your "sober toolkit" as a pathway to holistic healing and recovery.
Today we dive into everything you need to know about these practices to get started!
