The Yawn That Changed My Life

Ever get stuck halfway through a yawn?

It happened to me once...

...And it lasted for six months...

The anguish of being stuck in a yawn became my unwelcome constant companion.

It stuck with me through a 5-week training session I was instructing...

...Through the end of spring... the entire summer... and half the fall...

It even stayed with me through all my focused attempts to get past it.

Every dimension of my being was thrown into crisis by this sense that I was stuck in a yawn...

Except I wasn’t actually stuck in a yawn.

It just felt like it.

In fact, I was stuck in An Unfinished Something.

Something that was critical to me as a yoga educator who specializes in breathing.

Something that made me blow a fuse the first time I experienced it.

Something that made my nervous system completely freak out and left me emotionally wrecked...

For nearly 200 days, I was stuck. Hopelessly. Helplessly.

And then it happened.

Listen to the story of the breath that changed my life.

To life-changing moments,

P.S. This is the moment that directed where the rest of my life would go, how I would teach, and eventually informed how I approach the material in YogaAnatomy.net Principles. Click the button below for all the info - I hope you'll join us.
