I was playing the wrong game

Send us Fan Mail18 months of cancer, grief, surgery, and recovery, and what emerged from the other side wasn't just physical healing. It was a shift in how to relate to life itself. This episode is about what that actually looks like.A lot of it comes back to the body. There's grief for what's been lost and a genuine wonder at what remains. Not about appearance, but about resilience. The capacity to go through something that significant and still function, still move, still show up. That's where this episode starts.From there it moves into the bigger questions. Identity, control, and what's left when you strip both away. The teaching of Neti Neti from the Upanishads surfaces here, along with an honest look at what it means to stop outsourcing your sense of stability to outcomes you can't control. There's also something about the difference between empathy and rescuing, and why presence is more useful than fixing.The episode ends with what practically shifted things: active breathwork, spinal flexes, moving stagnant energy through the body rather than just thinking your way through it. And a new chapter opening. This stretch of the story, the descent, the grey months, the slow climb back, is finishing. What came out of it was unexpected. This episode is about what that is.LINKS:Work with Monica: https://cultivatecalmyoga.com.au/energy-alchemy/ Curious about Yoga Alchemy?: https://cultivatecalmyoga.com.au/yoga-alchemy/Website:https://cultivatecalmyoga.com.au/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/cultivatecalmyogabrisbane/
