Empowerment through Movement: Yoga and Body Positivity
In today’s episode, we explore the necessary conversation about Body Positivity in the world of yoga. Our very own Saisha @ThickThighYoga sheds light on the pressing issue of inclusivity in the yoga community. Saisha shares her poignant experiences of overcoming skepticism and creating the representation she sought in the yoga space. Listen as we discuss the gratitude from those who finally see themselves represented in her yoga classes and tackle the misconceptions surrounding body positivity. This episode will leave you feeling enlightened as we explore the positive impact of yoga on body acceptance, the importance of inclusive spaces, and the powerful connection to one’s body through the practice.
