Episode 14: Asteya (non-stealing) with Kennae Miller

“How are we stealing from ourselves by not doing what our souls are really asking us to do?” - Kennae Miller Exploring the Eight Limbs: The Path to Raja Yoga On this episode I’m joined by Kennae Miller (she/her). Kennae is a decolonial healing guide, teacher and speaker centering the Black lived experience. She offers Ayurveda, Herbalism, the laying of hands (Reiki), Yoga and Yoga Therapy as tools on the path to healing and liberation. We discuss the Yama, Asteya (non-stealing), and the ways we tend to self-sabotage and how that leads to sabotage in other parts of our life. Kennae also shares her journey to yoga (very spiritual), how we can show up authentically, and a very interesting stories on yoga retreats!

Getting deeper into the Yamas has reflected in a lot of self-discovery: - Self-validation over anyone else’s opinion - Allowing my sons to learn, explore, and not diminish their power - Why hearing back (or) not from a company isn’t the end of the world - Realizing I rather do life (happily) alone - Sharing how I would have an epic love story with someone I thought I was madly in love with.
