Jenn speaks to Lydia Chang, founder of Origin Yoga & Wellness, Taiwan Lululemon legacy ambassador, and Wellness Director of Flow Retreat in Hualien, Taiwan. Lydia shares with us how her hyperthyroid diagnosis back in 2020 shocked her, made her feel like a failure as a wellness practitioner and her road to recovery. How she learned to heal from within and why self-love and self-compassion are so important to apply to our daily life. (Recorded on March 14, 2022)
About Lydia:
Lydia came from a yoga family, and she started learning yoga and meditation from her father at the age of 10 years old. In 2016, Lydia took a leap of faith to leave behind her successful career in Canada as a corporate accountant, to start her own wellness retreat center in Taiwan. Since then, she focused on teaching and guiding personal wellness retreats and mindfulness workshops. Lydia has led over 300 group wellness retreats, and her clients include Google, PwC, GSK, Lululemon, and retreat guests from 50+ countries. This year, Lydia is invited to become Wellness Director of Flow Retreat in Hualien, Taiwan. Through Flow Retreat, Lydia is looking forward to expanding her retreat offerings to help more people discover balance in life.
