Ever since I was a little girl countless people have referred to me as an old soul. Being an old soul is often associated with having experience, wisdom, or a deeper understanding of the world around you.

Furthermore, many believe old souls are individuals who have learned from past lives or even incarnations.
One of the biggest roadblocks to the management of our mental health is rooted in our innate fear of failure. So many of these self-help books by big name motivational speakers can often do more harm than good.

I was a casual at-home yogi. A little hatha here, some attempts at vinyasa. Lots of restorative practice to buffer my busy and stressful adult life. A full time job, part time graduate school, friends, family, marriage, and some unexplained health issues.
