With guest Dhyana. All about Ayurveda, being born in a yogi family. And how she implements the wisdom to her child

Angela: My main goal in life is to help adults get into the best shape of their life in body, mind and spirit.

I want the movement to not be some awe-inspiring unattainable thing for others who aren’t...
