These incredible poses feature Heidi Williams who is a Researcher and Student of Yoga, Neuropsychology, Trauma, and Human Potential.
Heidi has used yoga to help rejuvenate her mind, body and soul after suffering anxiety, depression, PTSD and also a victim of rape.
Heidi says:
“Yoga brought me to a safe place again. The moment I released others from the responsibility of empowering me, is the moment I released myself from being the victim.
So many of us struggle to allow this kind of transformation to happen. Because we have only learned how to rely on others approval to gauge our worth.
We’ve learned to rely solely on the most volatile and ever shifting source of validation- people. Putting your worth in someone elses lap is like putting your money in sinking sand. Sooner or later it will disappoint and leave you feeling worthless.
Find you power by tuning into your own body. Become aware of your opinions, your thoughts, your desires and start you own truth map. I promise it will be the best thing you’ve ever done.”
We possibly could not imagine the amount of pain that Heidi has had to deal with in her life, but these elegant yoga poses and beautiful images are truly empowering and gives us a glimpse of hope, peace and light.
