Listen "Yoga for the Soul: How Alignment-Based Yoga Heals the Body, Brain, and Heart with Rachel Lundberg"
Episode Synopsis
In this transformative episode of The Soul Mirror, host Shreya speaks with Rachel Lundberg, a visionary yoga educator and founder of Thrive Yoga OC. Rachel bridges movement, neuroscience, and spiritual alignment to help people rediscover harmony between body, mind, and heart.
From her decade-long journey through chronic illness to developing her signature Alignment-Based Yoga and Embodied Wise Yoga, Rachel reveals how true alignment is not about perfect poses—it’s about living in integrity with the self.
This conversation explores the nervous system as a gateway to transformation, how belief systems shape the body, and why modern wellness needs to move beyond aesthetics into authentic embodiment. Whether you’re a beginner or teacher, this dialogue will reshape how you see yoga—as a sacred mirror for your inner world.
About the Guest:
Rachel Lundberg is an alignment-based yoga educator, studio founder, and creator of Embodied Wise Yoga. With over 30 years in movement, dance, and Iyengar tradition, she teaches how yoga can regulate the nervous system, rewire limiting beliefs, and open the heart to deeper healing. Rachel leads training programs for yoga teachers and healthcare professionals to integrate structural alignment, neuroplasticity, and heart-centered living into their practice.
Key Takeaways:
Alignment in yoga is not about straight lines—it’s about living in truth and self-trust.
The body often mirrors the deeper misalignments in our beliefs, emotions, and daily choices.
Healing requires cooperation, not control; yoga becomes a language the nervous system can trust.
Chronic illness can be an awakening—Rachel’s decade-long healing journey revealed how mindset, movement, and neuroplasticity are deeply intertwined.
True embodiment integrates brain, body, and heart, turning yoga into a living conversation with the self.
The nervous system holds the key to transformation; safety and repetition create lasting change.
Teachers must balance structure and freedom—understanding biomechanics while allowing personal expression.
Strict alignment rules can hinder growth; awareness and modification support sustainable practice.
The future of yoga lies in healthcare collaboration, education, and trauma-informed teaching.
Yoga is not just an exercise—it’s a way of being, a return to inner harmony and wholeness
