It’s been ten days since I gave birth to my son Jude. I’ve just become a mother. Things feel equal parts hard and beautiful. There’s a storm raging outside and the news tells us that there’s a tornado passing through New Jersey. So bizarre. We hunker down and don’t think much of it. Then we

Trauma-informed yoga. It sounds a bit technical, doesn’t it? Most people don’t stop to think much about it. Some let the words pass down their screen during a scroll, or perhaps read through the words on a flyer without a second glance. Ultimately, I don’t think most people believe it applies to them.
