Welcome to episode 95 of The Breathing Deeply Yoga Therapy and Meditation podcast.
Discover how Breathing Deeply student, Maeka Wright, reversed their alopecia and started growing their hair back with Breathing Deeply Yoga Therapy!
Alopecia is an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss. In Maeka’s case, they lost all of the hair on their body. There are very few treatment options for Alopecia.
Discover how implementing yoga practices informed by the doshic framework that we teach at Breathing Deeply helped Maeka see significant improvements in their health and well-being. After one year, their hair started to grow back.
Breathing Deeply’s approach—using simple, accessible techniques that empower clients and restore a sense of agency—has proven to be incredibly effective. While medications and talk therapy certainly have their place, yoga therapy offers something unique: the time and tools to address every layer of a person’s being, leading to meaningful, sustainable change.
Maeka’s story is an incredible example of where yoga therapy interventions can shine.
