Nikki is credited with coining the phrase &quot;the dis-ease of the lost self&quot; to best describe codependency. In this episode she shares how Yoga is essential to the &quot;inside job.&quot; of recovery from codependency, a relational pattern of relying on other people or things for a sense of validation. &quot;The issues are in the tissues,&quot; Nikki says, describing how Yoga restores balance and regulates the nervous system. She also says there's ``something for all of humanity&quot; in the 12 steps.
