Thank you so much for joining us for this episode of Alopecia Life. I've been waiting to share this episode with all of you because I knew it was important to release it at this unusual time in the US that has been so full of unrest. I'm editing this the week before our presidential election, at a time where a lot of stress and imbalance is working to right itself. Although this week has already played out and I have no idea of the outcome while editing, my wish is that today's guest, Jen Baradi, provides you with the same sense of calm and peace I felt after being with her in person and interviewing her here on the podcast.
I met Jen a few months ago in Toronto, and I knew she would be perfect for the podcast to share all she has discovered while living with alopecia for the past 38 years. She has discovered greater well-being and support along the journey through mindfulness, yoga, and iRest® meditation practices. As an educator, Jen taught internationally for 20 years and first developed an interest in combining yoga and education while completing postgraduate research on the effects of yoga on academic achievement. After repatriating back to Toronto, she took time for wellbeing and for deepening her yoga practice. She has awakened to a path of integrating wellbeing, awareness, and education.
Whether you're here in the US, in another country, or in Canada where Jen lives, we could all use a moment of space to just breathe.
Thank you for sharing your time with Jen and me today. To discover more for yourself, connect with her through www.jenbyogi.com. Additional ways to reach out to Jen are located here in the show notes, along with the YouTube link to the movie we spoke of, "Attack from Within."
