Janet Brazil


BOOK DESCRIPTION
At the age of 18, Janet Brazil was involved in a serious car accident. Janet and four of her friends were driving home from a weekend getaway when a car hit them. Their car was hit on the front passenger side, which is exactly where she was seated. The seatbelt she was wearing got caught around her neck, blocking off oxygen to her brain, which resulted in a brain injury. She went from being a young, healthy and happy teenager to a physically and mentally disabled person. Her entire right side was paralyzed and she could not walk or talk. Immediately after the accident, she went from being bedridden to wheelchair-dependent, then learning how to walk with the aid of a brace. After waking from a two-week coma, she was faced with the reality of chronic pain, memory loss, brain fog, fear, and depression.
Then she found yoga. It was the solution for her. Through stretching and breathing, her flexibility was increased, her endurance and lung capacity improved, her memory was enhanced, and her blood circulation became better. All of this solved a lot of her chronic pain. Yoga exercises opened up a physical space for her, which gave her freedom from her traumatized body. She learned to train her brain with breathing and meditation to sustain any thoughts of fear, depression, and brain fog. It gave her a positive outlook toward life, which contributed to her mental and physical peace. Yoga has brought Janet back to herself. It has healed her from the inside out.
