Her path to healing began by listening to her body

A former combat intelligence officer, Anna lives with PTSD following her military service. After years in which, as she describes it, she neglected her pain, she found in yoga a way to pause, listen to her body and face what remained with her from her service.

Through her yoga practice, she explores the boundaries between body and mind and finds tools for coping day to day. Today, she hopes to become an Iyengar yoga teacher and pass on to other injured people the tools that helped her along her journey.
