025. Meditation and Parenting through Yoga Pt II - Gita Matlock

In this episode we continue Gita's Journey with meditation. In the previous episode, she shared how she felt her life was almost too easy and too good for her to need meditation on a regular basis. As it does, life then gave her a big road bump. This ultimately gave her the impetus she needed to commit to a daily meditation practice. She also discusses how yogic tools and teachings have folded into her life as a parent. She shares how she now is sharing the tools of yoga with her kids, as well as how she manages to find the time while being a busy, present mother, consultant, and active member of her community.
