Episode Title: Overcoming Misconceptions About Yoga
Episode Description:
Yoga is often misunderstood as being just about physical flexibility, exotic poses, or a "perfect" lifestyle. In this episode, host Sherry Steine dives deep into the common misconceptions that keep people from stepping onto the mat and embracing yoga as a transformative practice.
Whether you’ve ever thought, “I’m not flexible enough for yoga,” or felt intimidated by social media portrayals of yoga, this episode is for you. Sherry shares her personal journey of overcoming her own doubts, breaks down what yoga really is (hint: it’s much more than physical postures), and offers encouragement for anyone curious about starting or re-engaging with a yoga practice.
Join us as we explore how yoga meets you exactly where you are, no matter your age, size, or level of experience.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why yoga is about connection, not perfection.
- The difference between yoga as a practice and yoga as portrayed in mainstream culture.
- How yoga can support emotional well-being, especially for midlife women.
- Simple tips to overcome fear or hesitation and try yoga for yourself.
