Sound Bath & Chill with Ashley Stanek
BE teacher Ashley Stanek talks about the evolution of her practice.
"When I first found yoga it was just a physical modality for me, to change my body in the midst of a very intense, aspiring ballet career. And I think so many of us in so many aspects, even if you're not a ballerina and never have been, can maybe relate to the fact that we often get hung up on how it looks instead of how it feels, and how it makes us feel.
"Yoga for me at this point in my life is a way for me to support my mental health. To get back in touch with my body. It's almost not about the physical anymore, at all.
"It's been a very beautiful and empowering and profound shift to use yoga as a modality to get into my body, and then live that way even off the mat."
