A Garden Chat with Heidi.

Our Guest

Heidi has had the joy and honor of teaching yoga for 24 years. Personally, yoga has helped her to be more conscious and present in my life and has taught her to be with the whole picture of what it means to be human: love, loss, illness, aging, vulnerability, growth and change. The physical aspects of alignment based yoga began to stabilize her injury prone body and improve her posture. The introspective practices helped create a healthier relationship internally and with the world around her. The beauty of teaching what she is passionate about is knowing that there is always more to experience. She is never bored and it's always evolving.
