Episode Twenty-Two: Emotional Regulation, Energy Medicine and Yoga with Eva ZobianWolf

In this episode of the Veda Lounge Podcast, Mel and Averie sit down with Eva ZobianWolf to explore the depth of yoga, energy medicine, and the process of transformation through practice. Eva shares her journey into yoga teacher training, discussing the importance of creating supportive spaces and navigating the duality of Capital Y Yoga and little y yoga—the deep philosophical roots versus the more physical practice.

The conversation unfolds into the regulatory power of yoga, exploring how movement and breath work help develop nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and sensory management tools. Eva offers insight into working with energy medicine, including Reiki, and how these modalities bridge the gap between subtle body mechanics and tangible healing experiences. She shares a powerful story about her husband’s health experience and how she applied sound bowls and energy work to support his well-being, including the profound possibility of impact of pre-surgical practices.

This episode also highlights the need for deeper research in energy medicine while acknowledging the transformational phenomenons that occur through these practices. Mel, Averie, and Eva discuss yoga as an accessible practice for all, challenging the notion of exclusivity and reinforcing that yoga belongs to everyone. Whether you're a yoga teacher, energy worker, or someone exploring deeper self-care practices, this episode offers wisdom, practical tools, and inspiration for integrating these teachings into your life.
