Alison Potts – There’s Opportunity in Everything: At The Heart of It | Yoga and Other Tools for Life

with Julie Smerdon

I met Alison Potts back in 2012 when she joined my teacher training. Her journey with her self-described guardian angel, Multiple Sclerosis, has been an inspiration to me since the day I met her.  But more than that, she’s had an extraordinary life, from the halls of the iconic Broadcasting House at the BBC in London to her journey as a yoga and meditation teacher here in Australia, to her remarkable strategy for life with MS. We talk about the importance of really listening, both to our bodies and to our inner wisdom, playing with balance, and the importance of unearthing our core wounds and beliefs so that we can move forward whole, and in joy.

How Meditation Empowers Healing: Excerpts   In an interview with Denise Stewart of The Breast Cancer Rehabilitation World Summit, I describe a meditation approach which is instictive and all about the individual. Joy, passion and anger can all be considered meditation moments. Become a magnet to the things that give you pleasure and bring healing to the body.

Top Hacks for Getting Into a Meditation Habit: Speaking on the Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis podcast, I talk about the importance of finding time for ourselves and cultivating an inner space that can welcome everything we are feeling and experiencing without a need to perform, filter or block. This is Instinctive Meditation, an approach to meditation which is so relevant, rewarding and effortless that meditation feels luxurious and supportive, rather than a chore. Click here to listen to the podcast.
