029. Healing Through Yoga and Ayurveda Pt I - Samantha Doyle

Samantha Doyle has had an amazing - you could even say miraculous - healing transformation through yoga and ayurveda. She shares openly with us the story of her troubled start to life, culminating in an eating disorder and other mental and physical challenges, including infertility. Listen in as she discusses overcoming a deck seemingly stacked against her through sheer perseverance and the application of yogic and ayurvedic practices, and the amazing results she has experienced. It is truly amazing and inspiring to consider what fate seemed to have in store for her as a young adult and where she is today - a very healthy, successful entrepreneur. And yes!
