Esther Nagle joins us today on The SHAIR Podcast.  Esther is the founder of Balance and Breathe Recovery Support through Yoga.  Esther spent most of her adult life living with addiction and mental illness and has come out the other side older, wiser, happier, and free.  She is also the Author of Bent Back into Shape, Beating Addiction through Yoga.

Esther Nagle spent years of her life waging war on herself and blaming the world for her unhappiness. Numbing her pain and hiding in alcohol, drugs, loud music and other self-destructive tendencies, her life was a constant battle between the identity she had created for herself, and the real Esther that she had occasional glimpses of, a happy, relaxed, joyful person full of love and peace.

Esther’s battles started to end the day she realized she was falling apart. A long dreamed of Yoga teacher training course showed her that there was a different way she could live, and she stepped gleefully into a life of happiness, healing and recovery. Sober since October 2014 after 20 years of addiction, Esther now uses her experiences and wisdom to help others through writing, speaking and teaching.

Esther loves Yoga, music, walking, learning, being with her beautiful sons, and reflecting on how much her life has changed for the better. She home educates her youngest child and enjoys the time that they get to spend together exploring the world.
