Everything heals. It does take time and it does take intention. While life seems very fragile and precious, our hearts aren't. Our hearts are very strong and resilient.
What happens when the pressures of life push you towards addiction, but the path to recovery leads you to something profoundly nurturing? Meet Vera Thomlison, a remarkable woman who transformed her life from the grip of drugs and alcohol to a fulfilling journey of sobriety. Growing up in a high-pressure Chinese household, Vera initially turned to substances as a way to cope with the immense expectations placed on her.
Her quest for belonging and escape led her down a dark path, but it was in the quiet moments of introspection that she found her true liberation through yoga and self-nurturance. In this episode of 'This is Sober', host Molly Desch sits down with Vera to discuss how yoga became her sanctuary, offering a healthier alternative to the temporary highs of addiction. Vera's story is a testament to the power of self-care and finding joy in healthy practices.
She has since developed a unique coaching program that combines meditation and yoga, helping others on their journey to sobriety. If you're curious about how to replace destructive habits with nurturing ones, or if you're seeking inspiration for your own path to wellness, Vera's story is one you won't want to miss. Tune in to hear how she turned her life around and now helps others do the same.
