In this episode, Caitlyn Parsons talks about her journey through dental hygiene, the pain she experienced early in her career, and how stepping away from the operatory led her to study yoga therapy. She shares what it was like to return to clinical practice after three years, the parts of hygiene she missed, and the challenges she didn’t.
We also discuss how yoga therapy works using breath, movement, and awareness and how simple “yoga snacks” throughout the day can help prevent stress and pain. Caitlyn explains the misconceptions many people have about yoga, why small consistent habits matter, and the importance of showing up for patients while also taking care of yourself.
 
In this episode, we talk about:
▪️ The car accident that sparked Caitlyn’s interest in health and shaped her early career
▪️ The pain and injuries she faced in her first years as a hygienist
▪️ Misconceptions about yoga and how anyone can benefit from it
▪️ Leaving hygiene and returning three years later with a new perspective
▪️ Simple routines like short yoga practices, hydration, and small adjustments that fit into a busy day
 
If you’ve ever wondered how to make a career in hygiene more sustainable, Caitlyn’s story offers both honesty and practical ideas you can start using right away.
