Sobriety & the 8 Limbed Path of Yoga

  • Sobriety Workshops

    Pleasure Point Sanctuary graciously hosts my Sobriety & the Eight-Limbed Path of Yoga workshops, where I share a curriculum I developed exploring how Patanjali’s eightfold path aligns with recovery and how yoga and meditation can support healing. Stay tuned for upcoming workshop dates by subscribing to my newsletter.

  • Public Speaking

    Sobriety and recovery are often private journeys, but I’ve chosen to share my own path of healing from attachment. I speak openly with universities, community groups, and podcast audiences about how yoga and meditation can support recovery and lasting well-being, and I am available for public speaking and collaborative engagements.

Podcast Episode

I recently joined the Sun & Moon Sober Living podcast to share my recovery journey and how yoga, meditation, and food as medicine can support healing. We explore topics like surrender, trauma-informed recovery, family dynamics of addiction, and how Patanjali’s Eight-Limbed Path of Yoga offers compassionate, non-prescriptive tools for sobriety.

Client Testimonials
