In this episode of Midwife Crisis, Kelli Zakharoff is joined by trauma-informed yoga instructor Ileana for a grounding and insightful chat about the healing potential of yin yoga—especially for midwives and healthcare workers carrying the emotional weight of their work.Ileana shares her own path into yoga, what makes yin so uniquely powerful, and why slowing down is often the first step to processing grief, burnout, and trauma. Together, they explore the importance of presence, emotional release, and creating support systems that hold space for the carers as much as the cared-for.This episode is a gentle, practical invitation to reconnect with your body, your breath, and your boundaries—especially if you’ve been pouring from an empty cup.
