Karen Lane is a London-based yoga instructor, Jazz Latin singer and voice coach. In today’s episode she shares with us a more vulnerable side. Karen opens up about the grief she’s been navigating as her daughters grow up and no longer need her as much. This conversation reminds us how important it is to carve out space and time to process our grief, regardless of how large or “small” it is.  The conversation is followed by a meditation that invites you to be with what is- a reminder that we must let things be before we can let them go.  Resources:  Descent & Rising by Carly Mountain   Connect with Karen here:  https://www.voicemindbody.co.uk/  https://www.instagram.com/voicemindbodyuk/    Interested in her retreat?

Yoga Nidra, otherwise known as the art of conscious relaxation, takes you from a Beta brain wave state to an alpha brain wave state, essentially allowing you to rest at a place in between wakefulness and deep sleep. This is a wonderful practice to do before bed as a way to unwind or in the middle of the day for a quick reset. If you enjoy, please please rate/review/share.
