In this special end-of-year episode, join host Lauren Leduc, founder of True Love Yoga, as she guides you through a mindful reflection on the closing cycle of 2024. Lauren explores the yogic philosophy of honoring endings, embracing change, and moving through transitions with acceptance and gratitude. With concepts rooted in yoga’s deep wisdom—such as the cycle of creation, sustenance, and release, as symbolized by the chant of Om—she invites listeners to let go of attachments and fears around change and endings.
You’ll also find journaling prompts woven throughout, offering space for introspection and emotional release. If you’re able, bring a journal, light a candle, and create a cozy space for this guided reflection, complete with a meditation at the end. And if you’re multitasking while listening, let the words flow over you, and come back later if you wish to dive deeper.
