Making Room for Grief with Michelle C. Johnson

This weeks guest is author, Dismantling Racism Trainer, Yoga teacher, and licensed clinical social worker, Michelle C. Johnson. In this discussion we dive into her most recent book, 'Finding Refuge: Heart Work for Healing Collective Grief' to talk about how we can best embrace our grieving process and learn how to stop numbing out intense experiences. This is a powerful conversation perfect for this time of year when we are encouraged to let go of things that no longer serve us. If you want to keep in touch with Michelle's work the links will be down below, complete with her 'Finding Refuge' Podcast and links to her books. 

The second edition of 'Skill in Action' is now just getting shipped out so I highly encourage you to pick yourself up a copy if at all involved in the practice of Yoga.
