Yoga, Food & Body Image

Many of us come to yoga hoping to find refuge from the weight-obsessed and perfection-driven culture we live in, only to find that the derogatory inner voice we were hoping to escape follows us right onto the mat.

In this workshop with Chelsea Roff, we learn how to use the practice of yoga to support us in developing a healthier relationship to food, body image, and ourselves.

Through interactive discussion, group exercises, and asana practice, we unravel the experiences that shape our relationship to our bodies and influence our self-worth. We discuss how life experiences like dieting, eating disorders, pregnancy, and menopause impact us both physically and emotionally, as well as how yoga can help us deal with those changes.

Using asana practice as our guide, we explore how yoga can be a source of empowerment and healing for anyone struggling with food or body image issues.

Men and women of all ages, colors, backgrounds, and sizes are invited to attend.

Helping professionals learn useful tools for personal use as well as working with clients.
