Traditional medicine offered temporary solutions but no real healing. Then, one unexpected invitation changed everything: A friend asked her to try a hot yoga class.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the first time in years, Janielle felt alive in her body. Convinced she had found a path to healing, she immersed herself in hot yoga, experimenting with escalating heat and humidity. The more intense the room became, the more her symptoms disappeared.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEventually, she opened her own studio in Philadelphia-a sanctuary devoted to healing through intense hot yoga. But just as her studio began gaining momentum, her dream unraveled. A crooked landlord, escalating harassment, and a disturbing series of legal battles pulled Janielle into a world she never expected: one marked by intimidation, betrayal, and a court system that seemed to function less as protection and more as an accomplice. As the pressure mounted, so did her determination to survive-and to understand why this practice was transforming not only her body but her entire sense of self.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking Heat is a powerful memoir of resilience, telling the story of one woman's journey through illness, trauma, corruption, and reinvention-and how she found healing in the fire meant to destroy her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Janielle Lucas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1971678228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781971678221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ballast Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.72d","brand":"Janielle Lucas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50779924693247,"sku":"9781971678221","price":20.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/taking-heat-janielle-lucas-9781971678221","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
