Tapping into Your Divine Self Through Yoga and Meditation with Dr. Jerika Johnstone

On this episode of the Drive Like a Motha podcast, I talked with Dr. Jerika Johnstone. She is a wife, mother of three, and serious yogi! She shared so much wisdome about Kemet Yoga, a style of yoga used to tap into the energy of our ancestors. Kemet, we know it as Egypt, has a rich history as the land of the beginning. Kemet Yoga is the practice of connecting with ancestors through poses and hand gestures during yoga and meditation.

Jerika also uses these techniques with her kids to calm their bodies through intentional breathing. This helps them communicate effectively without letting emotions take over.

This episode educated me on so many things. The most freeing part of the episode is when Jerika shared that we don't have to make meditation this whole big ordeal. Make it work for you. "We are walking mediations. We are living temples".
