with Sarah Westbrook, C-IAYT, Yoga Therapist at Heartwood Center
At Heartwood, many of us share a love for yoga — as a personal practice, a professional foundation, or a tool for healing. But even for those who’ve practiced or taught yoga for years, it can be hard to separate useful knowledge from myth and old school cueing.
That’s what inspired The Yoga Posers Podcast, created and hosted by Heartwood’s own Sarah Westbrook, Certified Yoga Therapist and founder of Yoga Therapy with Sarah. Jane Alexander, a friend and Yoga Therapist colleague is co-host.
The Yoga Posers podcast reflects Sarah’s voice as an educator, collaborator, and conversation-starter in the yoga and wellness world. Each episode invites listeners to look more deeply at familiar poses, movement patterns, and teaching cues — and to ask, why does this work, and how can we make it work better for real people?
For Practitioners, Teachers, and the Yoga-Curious
The podcast is especially relevant to the practitioners, teachers, and seasoned students within Heartwood’s community — those who care about why yoga works and how to teach or practice it more intelligently.
Episodes explore topics like wrist comfort in Downward Dog, how different bodies need different cues in forward folds, and the evolving science behind strength, flexibility, and balance. Sarah blends anatomy and movement science with humor and honesty, making complex ideas both clear and accessible.
Rooted in Heartwood’s Integrative Philosophy
Much like Heartwood itself, The Yoga Posers Podcast bridges ancient wisdom with modern understanding. It celebrates curiosity, lifelong learning, and the art of integrating evidence- based insight into mindful, compassionate care.
If you’ve ever wanted to peek behind the curtain of how yoga really supports the body and mind — or simply enjoy thoughtful conversation between colleagues who love to learn — this podcast belongs in your wellness toolkit.
