Finding and Creating Joy in Healing | Best of Vinyasa in Verse Podcast Episode 63

In this special “Best of” series of Vinyasa in Verse, I’m highlighting some episodes that recap a crazy year full of shifts, growth and healing. In this one, I talk about healing as a journey. It doesn’t happen overnight -- it’s a continuous evolution. This is only a starting point // If we can build resilience around trauma in ways that help us stop being overwhelmed by past experiences, we can find joy in healing. // We need to recognize the patterns in our behaviors to create awareness and space, which will support our whole healing journey. // Be kind to yourself as you work towards wholeness and towards gathering the pieces of yourself.
