Mandella's Path: From Crisis to Healing Through Yoga
Yoga can be a powerful tool for healing and transformation, and Mandella's story is a testament to that.
Mandella's life took a dramatic turn when she found herself teetering between life and death. In this episode of 'Yoga Radio Sessions - Yogapodden', Mandella opens up about her harrowing journey from substance abuse to becoming a beacon of healing through yoga. For over a decade, she's been a dance and yoga instructor, but her story is far from typical.
After stepping away from traditional yoga studios, where financial concerns often dictate access, Mandella now dedicates her time to using yoga as a therapeutic tool for those battling eating disorders. Her mission? To reach people in unexpected places, including vocational high schools, where she can make a real difference. She even has plans for a book on feminism, potentially laced with her love for hip-hop music.
Hosts Christian Wigardt and Curt Lundberg bring their usual mix of engaging electronic music to the episode, adding an extra layer of depth to Mandella's compelling narrative. If you're curious about the transformative power of yoga and its spiritual connections, this episode is a must-listen.
