The Spiritual Artist Podcast

Out of Your Head And Into Healing with Yoga Instructor Nancy Amlin Watson

Christopher J. Miller Season 5 Episode 182

In this deeply moving episode, CJ Miller talks with Nancy Amlin Watson, a yoga instructor who turned to her mat after the devastating loss of her child and discovered that yoga was one of the only things that made her feel “maybe not better, but just a tiny little bit less shitty.”

A devoted practitioner for more than 25 years and a teacher for the past three, Nancy now helps others navigate life’s many forms of loss—whether through death, divorce, illness, job change, or even the loss of a beloved pet. Her interactive Yoga for Grief Workbook blends heartfelt stories with visual practices, journaling prompts, and QR codes linking to videos that demonstrate her techniques.

Nancy shares how movement, breath, and presence can gently reconnect us to our soul and spirit, offering a path toward wholeness when words aren’t enough. CJ and Nancy discuss how yoga helps us release from our minds and move through a healing process, allowing emotion and awareness to flow through the body. Together, they explore how yoga opens space for healing, release, and renewed love—one mindful breath at a time.
