Common Threads Lehigh Valley

Description:

Are you overwhelmed by a never-ending to-do list? Hit pause for just a second, take a deep breath, and join us for this episode of Common Threads. Today, we are diving deep into a word you hear everywhere, but might not actually know how to apply: Mindfulness.

Our guest, Larissa Noto, has a story that will inspire you to rethink your daily routine. She traded her fast-paced career as a Wall Street legal analyst for the yoga mat, founding her wellness business, The Lovely Little Lotus.

A breast cancer survivor, Penn State adjunct professor, and busy mom of three, Larissa uses her incredibly diverse background to make wellness accessible to everyone. In addition to her yoga therapy practice, she is a national speaker and a passionate advocate for special needs families right here in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley.

In this episode, Larissa shares why mindfulness isn't just about sitting still on a meditation cushion. She explains exactly how she has applied it to navigate her everyday life as a mother, small business owner, teacher, and cancer survivor, and shares how you can do the same.
