Ep 16. Turning up the Heat, Yoga for Sports Injuries, Stress, Chronic Pain & Exploring our Wine

In Episode 16 Maria is joined by Marco Sanchez. As a former athlete, Marco stepped into yoga as a means to heal injury and soon found it to also be healing for the stress he faced in his career as an Engineer and Asset Manager for the California Department of Transportation. Marco takes us through the benefits of including heat in our practice, the importance of trying multiple classes and exploring different styles and teachers to find that perfect fit. He shares how heated yoga helps with injuries, detoxification, and even chronic pain. He shares insights into the Birkram Yoga system that he’s been teaching for 10 years as well as his evolution as a teacher to incorporate his anatomy knowledge and continual curiosity for growth. He and Maria chat about his love for Red Wine and then Maria takes us through the 4th step in the Take 5 Mindful Tasting process: Exploring.

Stick around till the end where Maria leads us through a guided relaxation.
