Summary

Lizzie Lasater teaches the pleasure of deceleration through Restorative yoga workshops and digital trainings. Lizzie is the daughter of venerated yoga teacher Judith Hanson Lasater, so I was keen to pick her brain about how yoga was (successfully! without rejection!) passed onto her. Lizzie also offers great tips for incorporating Restorative Yoga into everyday life. And, as she's witnessed both of her parents growing older and benefitting from lifelong yoga and meditation practice, Lizzie talks about the importance of taking the longview with asana practice.Shownotes: yogalandpodcast.com/episode65/

but it didn't work and I'm so glad that it didn't actually because it was wonderful to talk to both of them separately.

So I talked to Judith a little bit about being a yoga mom raising three kids while being a yoga teacher and I got to talk to Lizzie today about the flip side of that because I'm obviously very interested in how
