For years, I struggled with feeling disconnected from my body. Overwhelmed with self-loathing, I sought ways to heal from past trauma that ultimately had negative consequences on my health. I followed strict diets and exercise regimens that became all-consuming and lost my identity in the process. Through recovery, I found yoga and for the first time ever I felt good in my body. Instead of being preoccupied with my appearance, I felt strong, grounded, and at peace.
After years of my own personal practice, I decided to pursue my teaching certification with hopes that my own journey might inspire others to reconnect with themselves. If you struggle with negative self-esteem, body image, anxiety, or depression, yoga might be the solution you’ve been searching for.
