Christine Yanke has been a keynote speaker in mental health conferences, hospitals, addiction facilities, yoga studios, and universities, openly sharing her story of resilience. Her story reached thousands of people in 2018, when she was featured in Canadian Living magazine. She has also been a mentor to many in the field of addiction and recovery. Christine specializes in trauma-informed yoga and is a co-author of clinical research gathered on yoga intervention for women with substance abuse disorder in a residential treatment program. This research was published in 2021 in the Sage Journal. She is a mental health advocate and was the Community Champion spokesperson for the 2021 Run for Women event, which took place in 18 cities across Canada. In 2021, I published my memoir "Blinded by an Angel" ~One woman's inspiring true story of resilience through grief, addiction, and trauma.
