Episode 85: SF85 Breathe Into It

Alligators in Oklahoma who stuck their snouts out so they could breathe as unusual cold froze the water around them inspired a yin style yoga practice which asks you to breathe into discomfort. Like those alligators, when the next climate change crisis hits, and it will, we need to first set ourselves up to breathe. While we breathe into it, waiting, we gather strength, so when the ice melts we are ready to take action to help now or address the root cause.
