Michael McRay sits down with Selena Garefino, an internationally renowned yoga teacher, storyteller, and somatic coach. Selena weaves together yoga, mythology, anthropology, and coaching into a transformative practice that recognizes how stories live not just in our minds, but in our bodies. They explore how the subconscious mind receives story through sensation, how myth becomes a map for healing, and how returning to the body can help us re-author inherited meanings. Selena shares her profound wisdom about "never wasting a good crisis" and how good wine comes from stressed grapes. This spacious, grounded conversation reveals how embodied storytelling can be a pathway to healing trauma, navigating grief, and embracing our full dimensional humanity.
