Hi!! I would love to hear from you!
When the hospital beeps follow you home and echo in your dreams, you know your nervous system has been fundamentally altered by your work. This was Eva ZobianWolfe's reality during her 25+ years in critical care nursing before she discovered the transformative power of adaptive yoga therapy.
In this deeply resonant conversation, Eva reveals the barely discussed truth about healthcare burnout – how the hypervigilance required to save lives creates a physiological state where true relaxation feels impossible, even threatening. ”I felt like an angry shell of myself,” she confesses, describing how burnout manifested in her relationships and wellbeing. This emotional honesty creates immediate connection with anyone who's experienced the crushing weight of compassion fatigue.
Eva's journey from bedside nurse to founder of Eva Z Wellness represents a radical reframing of self-care for healthcare providers. She exposes why traditional ”treat yourself” activities provide only fleeting relief, while offering evidence-based alternatives that create lasting nervous system regulation. Her expertise in adaptive yoga therapy and mind-body wellness shines through practical suggestions like the Kirtan Kriya meditation, which research shows improves cognitive function even in dementia patients.
What makes this episode particularly valuable is Eva's holistic approach to healing. Beyond physical postures, she explores all eight limbs of yoga, including ethical principles that naturally support boundary-setting – something desperately needed in healthcare environments. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, she illustrates how these ancient practices can help modern caregivers recover their joy and compassion.
Whether you're a healthcare professional fighting burnout or simply someone whose nervous system feels perpetually overwired, this conversation offers both validation and viable pathways forward. Listen now to discover how reconnecting with your authentic self might be the most radical act of healthcare you can provide – to yourself and those you care for.
