In this special International Yoga Day episode of The Empowered Women’s Wellness Project, we’re joined by the radiant Marissa Montefreddi, founder of Yoga del Soul, to explore how yoga becomes more than movement—it becomes a path to peace, purpose, and spiritual connection.

From her early self-taught days, to her formal teacher training, and transformative mentorship under Sri Dharma Mittra, Marissa shares how yoga helped her navigate anxiety, deepen her soul work, and create a sacred space for healing in the local community.

Whether you're a seasoned yogi or yoga-curious, this conversation invites you to reconnect with your inner light—especially as we celebrate the Summer Solstice, a time of illumination and renewal.

🧘‍♀️ What We Cover:

  • How Marissa discovered yoga and why it became her anchor
  • The deeper philosophy of yoga beyond the poses
  • How yoga supports anxiety relief, emotional healing, and spiritual alignment
  • What makes Yoga del Soul a heart-centered space in Toms River, NJ
