When I came to India, it made me stop

"I had a rather patchy and wild upbringing, and when I came to India I was a bit split," says Karolina Zakrzewska in this edition of Yoga for livet.

As a young woman she travelled the world as a tour guide, but when she came to India she ended up living there for 22 years. Getting to know India, beyond Goa too, changed her life. In India Karolina ran Purple Valley Yoga Centre, among other things, and she cares especially about how focusing on the body can help work through both physical and mental problems. Karolina has struggled with both drugs and eating disorders herself, and recently finished a degree in nutrition, with a special focus on eating disorders. We met her at Norges Yogafestival, where she gave a talk and a workshop.
