When yoga teacher Pierce Tai was hit head-on in a devastating car crash, doctors said he might never walk again. But through grit, grace, and the discipline of his hot-yoga practice, he not only walked — he rebuilt his entire outlook on life.

In this raw and inspiring episode of How to Heal, Lindsay Trimarchi Richter sits down with Pierce to explore the moment he thought he was taking his last breath… and what it taught him about peace, purpose, and the human spirit.

Together they dive deep into:

• 🌡️ How structure and discipline in yoga become tools for emotional and spiritual healing.

• 🧘‍♂️ The fine line between pushing through pain and honoring your limits.
• ❤️‍🔥 What it means to truly listen to your body and rebuild from rock bottom.
• 🌊 How community, compassion, and self-awareness can change the way we heal.

This conversation is more than a comeback story — it’s a masterclass in resilience, mindfulness, and what happens when you decide to turn pain into purpose.
