How long have you been practicing yoga?
What is your favorite class/practice?
It's so hard to choose! I enjoy the challenge of the heated classes and the restorative aspect of the Power and Restore classes.
What inspires you to be healthy?
I've struggled with mental and physical health issues over the years and I've found that I feel the best when I eat healthy and move my body. Yoga has become such a big part of that in the last year; I've always exercised in some capacity but yoga is different, my body feels good when I consistently practice.
What is your favorite ice cream flavor?
If you could go back in time, what advice would you give yourself?
Don't worry so much. Things will always work out, whether it's the way I planned or not.
What celebrity (living or otherwise) would you invite to dinner and why?
Molly Yeh! I love her cookbook and cooking show, and it would be so fun to eat and discuss good food with her.
What is one goal you would like to achieve in 2020?
To spend less time using technology or social media and read more books.
Anything else you would like to add?
So many of the skills we learn on the mat can be applied to challenges off the mat. For me, learning to find comfort in the discomfort and allowing myself space to try new things without fear of failure have been the most rewarding.
