The Weston A. Price Foundation's Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health based on traditional wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through "improving" nature. On the contrary, "life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed," as Dr. Weston Price put it. We can learn from healthy societies of the past how to live healthier lives now.

In this deeply honest conversation, Ashley Elenbaas of SkyHouse Herbs shares how yoga quite literally saved her life — helping her heal from an eating disorder, substance use, and the inner voices that once told her she was not enough.
Ashley reflects on taking her very first yoga class at age 12 in Minneapolis, discovering embodiment for the first time, and later deepening her practice while attending college in Asheville. As yoga, meditation, and philosophy began reshaping her relationship with her body and mind, plants naturally entered the picture — guiding her toward an energetic, holistic approach to herbalism rooted in awareness, presence, and self-healing.
Today, Ashley continues a daily movement practice that includes yoga, running, and weightlifting — and she also teaches yoga at a women's recovery center, supporting others through trauma, addiction, and reconnection with the body.
In this clip, we explore: – Discovering yoga at a young age and learning embodiment – Healing from an eating disorder through movement and mindfulness – How yoga philosophy shaped her herbal path – The connection between plants, chakras, and energetics – Teaching yoga to women in recovery – Stillness, mental strength, and the real work of presence
Ashley also speaks to the quiet power of staying in a single pose, listening to the stories of the mind, and learning — one breath at a time — that transformation is possible.
This excerpt is part of a longer, wide-ranging conversation on healing, embodiment, recovery, and the deep overlap between yoga and herbalism.
