Episode Description

This is the second half of my conversation with yoga therapist Cheryl Gordon, where we move beyond yoga poses and talk about how mindfulness and small daily “micro-rests” can completely change how you feel in midlife.

You’ll learn simple, science-backed ways to restore your energy, regulate your hormones, and calm your nervous system - even on the busiest days.


You’ll learn:

  1. How short “micro-rests” can recharge your energy and focus
  2. Why slowing down isn’t laziness - it's essential for recovery
  3. How mindfulness helps with stress, cravings, and emotional balance
  4. Simple ways to weave restorative movement into your day
  5. How rest and relaxation directly support hormones, sleep, and metabolism
