How can yoga support us through life's most profound challenges?

What happens when spiritual practice meets the edge of mortality?

Can healing come not only from medicine, but from movement, breath, and inner stillness?

In this episode of The Spirit of Yoga, Burkhard shares the moving story of Catherine—a yoga practitioner who turned to the path of yoga after being diagnosed with blood cancer. When her plans to join an in-person teacher training were disrupted by the need to stay near the hospital, she chose instead to immerse herself in an online yogic journey.

Through consistent practice, community support, and inner strength, she not only navigated the trials of illness, but also experienced a profound deepening of her spiritual journey. Her story is not an isolated one. It echoes the lived experience of many who have turned to yoga for cancer recovery, discovering in the ancient teachings a path to resilience and inner healing.

This conversation weaves together the personal and the universal. It honors both traditional lineages and modern-day yoginis walking the path with courage and sincerity. Through stories of transformation, it offers a quiet yet powerful reminder of what is possible when we step onto the mat—not just to stretch the body, but to awaken the heart.

Join us as we explore the intersection of yoga therapy, spiritual resilience, and the healing power of practice.

A story of healing through yoga, grounded in truth and lived experience.
