Yoga Anita
Hosted by Yoga Anita
A veteran yoga instructor interviews New England wellness experts, community leaders, and entrepreneurs about their paths to helping others.
This is a weekly interview show where a long-time yoga and wellness practitioner has warm, encouraging conversations with local New England experts. Guests range from somatic healers and Feng Shui consultants to public library directors and motivational speakers. Each episode focuses on the guest's origin story, their professional craft, and how their work serves the community.
“The show's hyper-local focus on Central Massachusetts experts and its host's gentle, encouraging interview style create a uniquely supportive and community-oriented feel, distinct from more celebrity-driven wellness podcasts.”

What you'll be asked on this show
Anita begins each interview with a broad, open-ended question like "Tell us all about you," allowing the guest to frame their own story. She guides the conversation chronologically, asking for the origins of their career, key transition points, and the specifics of their current work. A signature move is to ask guests to define key terms for the audience, such as "somatic breathwork" or "Feng Shui," ensuring the concepts are accessible. She often builds rapport by sharing brief, relevant personal anecdotes. The interview always concludes with her asking, "How can people find you?" to connect her audience directly with the guest.
The show is a weekly interview series, also broadcast on local radio station WLPZ 95.1FM. Anita opens with a warm welcome and guest bio, guides the conversation chronologically through the guest's life and career, and closes with her signature "Love and peace" sign-off. Her tone is consistently positive and affirming.
