E12 | My Zen People | Cristina (Spain)

At 31 years old, the last thing Cristina expected when she went to see the doctor about a blocked ear was to leave the consultation with a diagnosis for Breast Cancer. This young and passionate sociologist decided to apply the same philosophy to her treatment as she did when surfing: when a wave crashes down on you, get up and try again. Through her healing journey she deepened her love for the ocean and also discovered the therapeutic capabilities of yoga for cancer patients. Today she shares her practice through surf and yoga retreats and is specialised in oncological yoga, helping others heal.
