The Corporate Girl's Guide to a Midweek Reset on the Mat

Can 15 minutes and a mat be enough to bring you all the way back?

Vanisha Weatherspoon, corporate attorney and 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, guides listeners through a 15-minute anchor yoga flow designed to complement last week's episode on falling off and returning to practice. This movement-based micro episode takes concepts like minimum viable practices and identity shifts out of the mind and into the body. "This is not gonna be your most ambitious practice, but it will be your most reliable one." From mountain pose to Shavasana, Vanisha walks through breath work, three rounds of modified sun salutations, a forward fold, low lunges, and a grounding twist — all with the quiet reminder that showing up consistently is the practice.
