I've learned anything at all from yoga, it's that every breath is another chance to feel better.

So that's really it. It's so simple. Just

slowing down a little bit, everything is going to get done. You're doing all the things,

you know, the stress doesn't add to the productivity in that way or the feeling anything useful.

So, you know, once we can just train ourselves to slow down a little bit, then things get better.

Hey, everyone, Emily Abadi here. You are listening to episode 173 of Hurtle, a wellness-focused

podcast where you sit down with inspiring individuals to talk about big wins, tough moments,

and everything in between. On the show, what you can expect, vulnerability, motivation,

and candid discussions with everyone from top athletes and CEOs to aspiring entrepreneurs,

on what it really takes to follow your passions. My mission is simple. To inspire you to be your best

self-move with intention and have some fun along the way. For episode 173 of the show, I am chatting

with Tara Stiles. She is the founder of Strala Yoga. She is obviously a yoga teacher,

a best-selling author, and so much more. Such a fun one in which we get into everything from

how dance was actually the gateway for Tara into yoga, opening up a world of freedom and joy

that she didn't really know was possible. We also talk about her first few classes at Crunch

and the frenzy that came hand in hand with opening her own space as well as the role in that

was getting featured in the New York Times and how that changed everything for her. I can totally

sympathize and mine was not a five-page spread. Tara and I also wrap about teaching during COVID

what it's been like for her, shifting to digital, and how she keeps her head on straight with

hundreds of thousands of people following her practice online. Really loved this conversation,

had a blast getting to know Tara a little bit better, and I can guarantee you a few laughs along

this lesson. Make sure you're following along with Hurtle over on social media. It's at Hurtle
