There are many things a mother wishes for the day her child is born. My only wish was for my kids to be healthy, and I thought if I fed them well, all would be fine.

Fast forward two decades and Mendez is very much a convert. After going through a period of significant stress and anxiety in his life, his doctor in Mexico recommended he try yoga. That was 11...
