Podcast appearances and mentions of Michelle S Fondin

If you've ever done a Yoga Teacher Training or are looking to do one, you've most likely heard about the Yoga Sutras by Patanjali as part of the teacher training.  Hey, maybe you've even heard me mention them once or twice (I talk about them a lot!) You may wonder “Why?” or even, “What in the heck are these Yoga Sutras?!”. Well, that's what we're going to explore in this episode! Anyone who has some sort of Yoga practice will find inspiration in the Yoga Sutras as these texts provide a very different perspective to the Yoga we know these days. Seasoned teachers, I promise there'll be some fresh fun facts in here for you too!

Though “chakra” meant little to the author in 1999, when she was in her 20s and diagnosed with thyroid cancer, it became a fundamental aspect of her healing. Fondin explored the fifth chakra, which included the thyroid gland. She came to understand previous illnesses and psychological circumstances in ways that explained — and helped heal — her current illness. Fondin, a teacher, healer, and author known for plain-spoken explanations of Eastern practices here puts the power of chakras in the hands of readers, whether they are facing a particular illness or interested in optimizing everyday wellbeing. In a program that can be used for a seven-day intensive healing or a lifetime plan for maintaining peak wellness, readers learn to balance each of the seven chakras through diet, breath, meditation, and yoga asanas. Spiritual, energetic, and physical in nature, chakra healing epitomizes the proven power of utilizing every aspect of the mind, body, and spirit. www.michellefondinauthor.com

Drug and Alcohol addiction is a serious subject, one that I don't feel we pay enough attention to. There's a good chance one of us knows someone who is addicted to drugs or alcohol and we don't even know it. That's because they are experts at hiding their addiction. After all many have been hiding their addiction for years! In this show I'm interviewing Michelle S. Fondin who was in a relationship with someone who was addicted to alcohol which inspired her to do the research it took to bring awareness around the subject to better inform those that don't know much about it in her book called Help! I Think My Loved One Is an Alcoholic. Michelle S. Fondin is the author of The Wheel of Healing with Ayurveda: An Easy Guide to a Healthy Lifestyle (New World Library, 2015), Help! I Think My Loved One Is an Alcoholic: A Survival Guide for Lovers, Family, & Friends (2016), and the upcoming book 7 Days to Chakra Healing (New World Library, 2017). Michelle writes for Deepak Chopra’s website and is an Ayurvedic Lifestyle Counselor, meditation, & yoga teacher.
