Today's show was a big moment for the show and me personally, as I had the high honor of having a sweet, heartfelt conversation with one of my role models and personal teacher, Elena Brower. Elena's insights on personal growth and creating a life that doesn't need alteration promise to leave you inspired and motivated.
She gives us an intimate look into her journey with zen Buddhism, her transformative hospice training experience, and her practices that have helped her release self criticism. As we traverse this path with Elena, you’ll find yourself inspired by her dedication to her service of impacting others lives and her personal practices.
Elena opens up about her personal struggles with addiction and the dramatic lifestyle changes she undertook to embrace a yogic lifestyle. Get ready to be inspired by her powerful testament to the transformative effects of mindfulness and yoga. She shares her journey of overcoming the need for external validation, her connection with essential oils, and how these elements have aided her to discover her most authentic self. Elena's courage and resilience promise to touch your life with potent insights.
In a world that's constantly vying for our attention, Elena teaches us the art of attention, and the role of intuition in decision-making. She helps us understand how to lead an artful life amidst overstimulation. Be prepared to hear about her latest offerings, her writing ventures, and her volunteer service work.
