Summary

Rachel’s life has been turned upside down lately in a way she cannot fully describe. In today’s episode, she recounts the story that unfolded in the past week after she was ‘cancelled’ online. Although she feels as if she is going through a process of mourning, she is having difficulty pinpointing exactly what it is she is mourning, and the purpose behind it. Her family is safe. The Yoga Girl community is strong and connected. Island Yoga is still thriving. So, what exactly is she mourning? A sense of safety? A sense of community? A sense of belonging and feeling at home? This type of mourning is visceral and hard on the nervous system. But as with all hard things, the only way out is through. Answers may reveal themselves in time, but today all we can do is be kind, find healing, and do more things to connect to peace every moment of our day. Tune in for a heartfelt, raw, honest account of social media gone wrong and the effects it can have.

0:28.8	Where do I begin, you know, what am I gonna talk about?
0:31.3	How am I gonna do this?
0:33.0	It's felt like a daunting thing returning to the podcast right now.
0:36.8	And then I was sort of saved by the bell.
0:39.5	I just, I remembered, oh shit, I have bread proofing downstairs.
0:43.9	That was about to become overproved, you know, oh my God, that would be a huge disaster.
0:48.9	Like such a silly thing.
0:52.2	But it was enough for me to like, oh my God, I gotta go downstairs and put my bread in
0:55.3	the oven, you know.
0:56.9	So I did that and then I realized I had, I've been dehydrating a ton of moringa from our
1:03.4	latest moringa harvest.
1:05.5	And I was just waiting for the oven to heat up.
1:07.2	And I was like, you know what, let me just pulverize this and make my moringa powder because
1:11.2	I'm like standing in the kitchen.
1:13.3	And then I did that and I spent, I spent a good like 30 minutes just with my moringa leaves
