How I fell in love with Yoga

from Cultivate Calm · host Monica Rottmann

Send us Fan MailTen years ago, I made the life-changing decision to quit my six-figure career and open my own yoga studio. Today I’m sharing my personal story of how I fell in love with yoga, the significant impact it had on my life and why I’ve never looked back. My real journey with yoga began when I moved into a house with a yoga studio conveniently located at the end of the street. Curiosity got the best of me, and I signed up for a beginner's yoga class one Sunday afternoon, not knowing what to expect. The experience proved to be both physically and mentally challenging, but it was in Shavasana, the final resting pose, that I discovered a quiet mind with no thoughts. That’s what got me hooked. At the time, I was enduring chronic daily headaches and no matter how many professionals I saw to find answers, the only thing that seemed to help was yoga. The more I immersed myself in yoga, the more addicted I became to the feelings of peace and relaxation that lingered long after each class. In this episode, I tell the story of how I eventually went on to complete my yoga teacher training and open up my own studio. It was my dream to create a welcoming space for individuals who didn't resonate with the extreme aspects of yoga but sought inner peace and contentment, just like I did. And over the past ten years, I have witnessed incredible transformations within my yoga community. People who were once burdened by illness, chronic pain, and anxiety have found solace and strength in the practice. Yoga is so much more than a physical practice. It has the potential to reshape our thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. It’s not about having a hot body and being able to do all the tricky poses, it’s about how you feel on the inside. If you want to find a greater sense of calm, I invite you to join us and discover the life-changing benefits that yoga has to offer.LINKS:Curious about Yoga Alchemy?
