Yoga for real life

Jul 10 2023 • 54 mins

I'm traveling this week, so I'm sharing a listener favorite in case you missed this one. Check back next week for a new episode! In our last episode of 2022, I talked with Olivia Wilson Smith, who I met a few months ago at a workshop with Nichol at the Ahava Yoga Collective. Olivia kindly offered to be a guest on the podcast to talk about her work teaching yoga to children at Youth Focus, a local organization that provides supportive housing to children, teens, and young adults who are at risk, in crisis, have run away, or experiencing homelessness. Highlights from our conversation include: Olivia's yoga background and why she decided to become a yoga teacher. Olivia's work as a social worker at Youth Focus. How Olivia bridges traditional psychotherapy and yoga to make lasting impact on children's lives. Olivia's perspective on trauma-informed therapy.
