S2 Ep1089: How To Handle Stress & Pressure Ahead of Holidays?
We’re already in October, and as nights grow longer and darker and we enter the often-busy period leading up to holidays, we might feel a pressure to make the most of our time.
But is that really conducive to our wellbeing, and could we take a leaf out of nature’s book an approach the winding down of the year with calm and rest?
Joining us for another Off the Matt Chat is Dawn Blezard from Pathway Yoga.
You can find out more about Dawn by searching for "Pathway Yoga with Dawn" on Instagram, Facebook or YouTube.

She has blonde hair set in two French braids and is wearing a lilac long sleeve top with patterned leggings. The yoga matt is black with high contract purple alignment lines, which are designed to help align your body and improve posture during yoga poses.
