This week in the #MoneyMagic Podcast, I talk to Jawana Marshall, a mom, yogi, and the founder of Brown Girl Yoga Tribe. Jawana fell in love with yoga at 18 after her father died. Her first experience was backed by competition and experimenting on how flexible she was. The second time she did it, her purpose was different, and she was very intentional. For her, yoga embodied the person she wanted to be, loving and peaceful.
Yoga is not about what you’re doing with your body. It’s about finding your space from the inside. Finding stillness beyond your thoughts, movements, and whatever is happening around you. This is the heart of yoga, and being able to find peace and calmness over and over again is what will help you find your healing.
We usually have different layers of emotional trauma. Everything starts in the casual body, then in the astral body, emotional body, and mental body before manifesting in the physical body.
Yoga is a gentle journey, and it will help you peel off the layers and heal. For Jawana, it has given her priceless calm feeling no matter what is happening around her. She was in a mess, but yoga created a space for breakthroughs and to be authentically happy while pushing beyond those boundaries energetically.
This is another incredible episode.
