Soulful Yoga
Column by Stephanie Johnson, CYI
Soulful Yoga
For Stephanie, yoga is life. It starts out on the mat, where we strengthen our physical bodies and relax our minds through pranayama and meditation, and then moves into our everyday lives, so we are present for every single moment, living with mental flexibility and spiritual curiosity. Stephanie is passionate about sharing this practice with others through her soulful teaching, writing and daily life, so that others can share in the beautiful and ancient wisdom of yoga.
