Ultimately, that's what all teachers begin as being here for and what I think without this teaching, the ordinary place in the web of life, all of that, you know, all of that guru worship can be very seductive, and I'm quite grateful I don't have to go through that.
What if the key to overcoming addiction lies not just in willpower but in holistic healing? In this episode of the 'Sun & Moon Sober Living Podcast', host Mary Tilson sits down with Shaura Hall, a Yoga Therapist and Addiction Recovery expert, to uncover her transformative journey from battling heroin and crack addiction to becoming a beacon of hope for others.
Shaura, the Founder of The Yogologist, brings a unique blend of yoga, mindfulness, and ceremonial healing into her recovery practice. Her story begins in a Native American sweat lodge in Oregon and has since evolved into a powerful narrative of resilience and holistic healing. Shaura shares how trauma often lies at the root of addiction and why addressing it is crucial for recovery.
She talks about the importance of community support, societal conditioning, and the teacher-student relationship in the healing process. You'll also hear about her experiences with Hatha, Kundalini, and Yin Yoga, as well as mindfulness, meditation, and Yoga Nidra practices. Shaura emphasizes the need for professional guidance in trauma work and the role of childlike wonder in rediscovering joy.
This episode is packed with insights on how yoga therapy can be a vital tool in overcoming addiction and finding a path to a fulfilling life. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Shaura's story and expertise offer a fresh perspective on holistic healing.
