from Yoga That Works · host Gwen Versteegh

In this episode, we explore the pressure of doing in your Yoga practice & how it shows up in both group classes and private sessions. Gwen shares what she sees in students from teaching multiple classes each week & explains how the urge to keep up, get it right, or do it perfectly can pull us away from listening to what we truly need. This episode is an invitation to listen, especially at the start of the year, & reconnect with choice, awareness, and trust. Highlights include: ● Why keeping up is not required for your practice to work  ● How the pressure of doing shows up in all styles of Yoga ● Why taking a break is still part of the practice ● Building confidence through small, conscious choices ● A simple reflection to bring into your next class SHOW LINKS: ● Join the Yoga Life Lab: Life Lab Membership ● Connect with Gwen on Instagram: Instagram ● Subscribe for updates: Newsletter If you are ready for our journey together & never want to miss an episode, subscribe to the podcast.
