All the Faiths and all the Spirits with Rev. Cathy Whelehan

Cathy Whelehan is first and foremost a student of life, love and connection. She is most passionate about supporting students to develop personal practices that assist individual transformation and planetary evolution. Her yoga classes emphasize sound therapeutic alignment, integration with the cycles of nature and celebration of the heart.

Cathy began practicing yoga twenty years ago during her first pregnancy in 1996 simply because she wanted to feel better and found that it helped her reconnect with her body. She has been teaching yoga for 10 years and has over 1,000 hours of training in Ashaya, Anusara and various therapeutic modalities.

She has been teaching yoga out of her home since 2007 and was inspired to co-create Open Sky Yoga Barn (OSYB) in 2011 on her property in Redding, Connecticut to combine her love of yoga and service with family life. When Cathy is not doing the mom thing or teaching at OSYB, she can be found hiking in the woods with her dog Gracie, walking the labyrinth, dancing, singing, laughing, reading, writing, gardening and preparing healthy food.

This is Freddie’s first episode to explore spirituality and faith. Cathy and Freddie discuss the number one item for your self-care list, finding God after difficult times, the role of faith while raising two chronically ill children, and possibly Freddie’s favorite answer to what it means to be beautifully broken.
