The Chicken Yogi Show
The Chicken Yogi Show brings chronic wellness to the forefront of our conversation by discussing how anyone can find a sense of wellness and hatch their authentic life.

They pride themselves on being a coach who meets people where they are and in their own lives.

Liberation has been forgotten in the modern yoga movement, especially modern postural yoga, from which today’s yoga studios, yoga teacher trainings, and yoga organizations have arisen. And yet, if we put the liberation back into yoga, we can use it as a tool for liberation. While my focus is specifically neurodivergence liberation, disability liberation, and […]

In today’s episode I do a little “shameless self promotion” by talking about a couple of sub-blogs in the Chicken Yogi universe. Please forgive the fibro fog.
