Movement as Soul Language: Stillness, Creativity & Yoga That Heals with Veronique Ory

On Soul Sparks with Saima, we explore how movement becomes a language of the soul and stillness a doorway to deep contentment. Guest Veronique Ory—yoga guide and author of Shine On and Off the Mat—shares a practical, poetic approach to mindfulness: let breath lead, let nature inspire, and let your body express what words can’t. We unpack creative practice, the sacral-heart connection, and accessible rituals (from 20-minute flows to restorative shapes) that release stagnation, reduce perfectionism, and reconnect you to purpose. If you’re seeking grounded, creative, body-led spirituality you can use today, this episode is for you.

 

About the Guest  :

Veronique Ory is a movement and mindful-awareness guide and the author of Shine On and Off the Mat, an interactive blend of stories, music, and yoga practices. Her voice-first teaching style centers self-expression, nervous-system nourishment, and community.

 

Key Takeaways:

• Movement is more than exercise—it’s a soul-level language that helps emotions and stories move through the body.

• Creativity activates the sacral chakra and invites intuition and heart intelligence to lead decision-making.

• Stillness and movement are partners, not opposites; choose what you need first (walk, yoga, or rest) to arrive at presence.

• Simple cues—hand to heart and belly, ask “What would you have me know/do?”—build trust and inner guidance.

• Closing the eyes and following voice-led prompts reduces perfectionism and supports authentic expression over “picture-perfect” poses.

• Think “life as art”: mindful eating, slower breathing, and nature-inspired motion (trees, ocean) expand everyday awareness.

• To release stagnation, pair forward folds/twists with the intention of letting go; use breath to “open windows” in the mind.

• Revisit what lit you up at age ten; those early joys often point toward purpose and sustainable practices now.

• Short, consistent 20-minute practices (vinyasa, yin, meditation) can reset physiology and fit real schedules.

• Community matters: shared practice and reflection help counter isolation and strengthen integration.
