Ep. 24: Sensory Integration, and the importance of PLAY with Dr. Alanna Pisani: What Yogis can learn about the Nervous System from Occupational Therapy - a podcast by Laura Goellner OTR, E-RYT, LMT

In honor of Occupational Therapy Month (April) I got to talk to my fellow Occupational Therapist and all around super fun person, Dr. Alanna Marie Pisani. Alanna & I went to Therapy school together and have been bonded as nerds ever since! We love to talk about all sorts of topics related to health and the nervous system, so today we are sharing our conversation about the sensory system and how people process sensory input differently & how this applies to what we do as yoga teachers!

Note :) All strange background noises are attributed to my dog Redford wanting to be involved. I live in a Tiny House on Wheels that is 192 s.q. feet which creates some challenges in filming/recording content - but it is my experience that there is no ideal environment and there will always be distractions & these distractions are just another opportunity to work on our FOCUS :)
