Candice was brought to her mat by a friend who was doing Bikram yoga at the time. She was looking to promote more flexibility in her body to help improve her ice skating skills. She had tried several avenues before coming to yoga (e.g., ballet) but nothing made any marked difference in her body. In fact, in her mid-20s, she had a fitness test done and was told that if she didn’t start stretching, she wouldn’t be able to tie her shoes in her latter part of life!
Yoga not only helped her with her flexibility, but also helped reduce stress, anxiety, change her diet, and minimize Lupus symptoms. Candice was diagnosed with Lupus when she was 23 years old after experiencing chronic pain, exhaustion, headaches, and a variety of other symptoms that was constantly plaguing her. Yoga offered a significant amount of relief from those symptoms!
In 2014, Candice was incredibly excited to be invited to join DYLN Inspired as a Yoga Ambassador. DLYN Inspired produces innovative activeware and yoga apparel as well as accessories. Their VitaPearl fabric really does live up to their claim to help you feel more energized as she personally experienced it and would love to share the story to you! Be sure to ask her about it!
