Episode #43 - There’s No Such Thing As Good Or Bad (And Other Yogic Anecdotes)

Recently a question was posed to Stacey by a student which was, how do we know if what we’re doing when we’re engaging in high vibe practices or working on our business is GOOD or BAD and this inspired the topic for today’s show – why simply SHOWING UP & PRACTICING = GOOD.

Embodying this concept changed everything about Stacey and her life!
