In this Veterans Day episode, MJ talks with Air Force veteran, Dan Justis, about how his role in the service led him to yoga and eventually to Wellness Consulting. He shares his experiences and insights on teaching yoga to veterans, learning from a personal injury and his passion for sharing the vast benefits of yoga. Honor and gratitude for our veterans should never be an afterthought. Dan tells us how and why we should engage with veterans and listen to their experiences. He says, "at the very least, you will hear a worthwhile story".
Dan Justis is a Wellness Consultant at Smola Consulting. He prides himself on finding creative well-being solutions that support individual, worksite, and community health. Prior to Smola Consulting, Dan worked as a Health & Wellness Specialist at the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) where he developed and created wellness programs, events, and resources for veterans nationwide. Dan was on active duty in the Air Force and worked primarily in the Aeromedical Evacuation pipeline, where he was responsible for the transportation and care of wounded service members returning home from Iraq & Afghanistan. He became a registered yoga teacher though Vetoga, a specialized yoga training taught by veterans for veterans.
