Welcome to The Yoga of Susannah Podcast, a gateway into the world of breath and sensation.

Each podcast is designed to be a 10 minute mini-retreat.  It is suggested that you simply lie down - on the floor, the couch, your bed, the deck, the patio, a boulder in the sunshine....anywhere, really - and let your body soften into gravity while Susannah guides you through simple mind body experiences that will connect you to the Here and Now. Let go of your thoughts & anxieties and luxuriate in the richness of feeling instead. Just lie down and rest...
