Redefining Movement

It’s a very special Friday with Friends as we sit down with my dear friend – and my doctor! Julie Pantelick is a functional medicine genius and I am so excited to share her with you. Julie’s entire approach to health is about arming yourself for whatever the future may hold. We’re all going to go through menopause at some point, for example, but it doesn’t have to be a bad thing. A few tweaks to your lifestyle can make all the difference. We also discuss hormone health, gut biomes, and much more.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: lytyoga.com/blog/category/podcasts/Resources:Email Julie at jmpantelick@gmail.com The Institute for Functional MedicineRedefining Yoga is a production of Crate Media Hosted on Acast.

When Kori Hahn was twenty, she packed up everything she owned – which wasn’t much – and drove nonstop for seven days, ending up in Alaska. She lived off-grid and made her own way through life, which gave her a lifelong taste for living mindfully and slowing down. From there, she began to travel extensively, leading her to Sri Lanka as of this conversation.Kori wanted to prove to the yogis of the world the importance of intuition. Rooted in that driving idea, she dove into the pursuit of writing a book, Rituals of the Soul. Through that process, she learned to redefine, for herself, what yoga is, and what it means to her.She joins the podcast to share how you can use the eight principles of yoga to live a more balanced, meaningful life while cultivating a deeper connection to purpose.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: lytyoga.com/blog/category/podcasts/Resources:santoshasociety.comRead: Rituals of the SoulInstagram: @santosha.societySponsors:Visit tryveganmealprep.com and use code LYTYOGA for 25% off your first orderRedefining Yoga is a production of Crate Media Hosted on Acast.
