How Yoga Changed My Life

158. The Way You Carry Yourself Carries Your Energy

How Yoga Changed My Life Season 3 Episode 158

In this week’s episode of How Yoga Changed My Life, biomechanics-driven Lara Heimann unpacks one of her favorite topics: posture and alignment — and why they matter more than you think.

Lara breaks down posture as more than how you sit or stand; it’s the carriage of your energy. Whether you’re upright, lounging, or lying down, your alignment shapes how you breathe, how efficiently you move, how your nervous system responds, and how you exchange energy with the world around you.

  • Why posture isn’t about perfection, but function + freedom
  • How maintaining the spine’s natural curves supports better breath and better movement
  • The connection between alignment, emotional regulation, and embodiment
  • How small daily habits create long-term resilience

This episode is an inspiring look at how aligning your body helps you align your energy, your choices, and your entire way of moving through the world.
