Yoga, Writing, and Imaginative Research with yoga teacher and poet Stefine Maura

Welcome to "Twice 5 Miles Radio," I'm your host, James Navé. I'm delighted to feature Stefanie Maura, poet and founder of the Writing Yoga® Method, in this episode. My friendship with Stefanie began in 2012 at the Omega Institute's week-long writing workshop. Her unique approach, blending the art of writing with the discipline of yoga, offers a fresh perspective on creativity. Beyond her innovative method, Stefanie's adept use of social media to share her insights on the synergy between bodily movement and written expression is genuinely inspiring. Stefanie's commitment extends to a diverse audience, including children, parents, educators, and administrators. She offers practical strategies to foster calmness, enhance health, and create space for pursuing dreams. This dedication to well-being and personal growth is a cornerstone of her philosophy. I recorded this conversation with Stefanie in Paris, atop a staircase in a quaint 6th-floor apartment. The backdrop of the City of Lights added a unique charm to our dialogue. As I balanced on the top step, the principles of yoga were not just a topic of discussion but a practical necessity, ensuring a steady and focused recording session. Tune in and let Stefanie inspire you to integrate the principles of yoga and writing into your daily life. Enjoy the show!
