E18 Rooted Wellness: Nourishing Body, Mind and Spirit from Emily Paige

Welcome, lovely listeners, to another soul-nourishing episode of Whispers of the Womb! I'm Suzanne, your guide through the realms of holistic well-being. Today's episode is a special treat as I'm joined by the remarkable Emily Paige from Yoga Where You Are Planted in the picturesque landscapes of France. Emily graciously opens up about her profound journey with yoga, a journey that began around the age of 13 during tumultuous times of grappling with body image and finding her place in the world. In an honest and vulnerable exploration, she shares how yoga initially became a means to conform to societal beauty standards – engaging in rigorous hot yoga sessions that sometimes pushed her to the brink of physical exhaustion. Fast forward to the stringent lockdown measures in France, where Emily, working at the University, found herself unable to escape the confines of strict regulations. It was during this challenging period that she experienced a transformative shift. Facing a nervous breakdown, Emily sought therapy, and her therapist suggested revisiting yoga with a fresh perspective. This marked the turning point in Emily's relationship with yoga, as she began to view it not just as a series of physical movements but as a holistic practice encompassing breathing, lifestyle, meditation, and concentration. The journey didn't stop there; Emily's exploration led her to delve into various yoga styles beyond the super active ones, including yoga therapy and Trauma-sensitive yoga. These experiences became the foundation for her to integrate other modalities and birth Yoga Where You Are Planted, a business dedicated to serving individuals who share a similar journey of body image struggles and traumatic experiences. In our conversation, Emily beautifully articulates the essence of yoga – it's not just about how it looks on the outside but, more importantly, about how it makes you feel inside. It's about helping you live the best life for you, debunking the widespread belief that yoga is solely a physical practice. Join us as we navigate through the transformative power of yoga, from body fixation to a holistic approach that empowers individuals to embrace their unique paths to well-being. 🌿✨ How to contact Emily Paige, Podcast Guest https://www.yogawhereurplanted.com How to contact Suzanne J Lawson at Wellness to Womb 🎙️💫If you’d like to feature as a guest on our Whispers of the Womb podcast please visit the link below.
