Today I want to talk about something we all deal with, body image. I know this can be a complex topic, especially in relation to the yoga and wellness industry. There is still a need for more diverse role models in this space and when it comes to body image; embracing your unique body and self-acceptance is a journey that requires ongoing effort.  Let’s talk about:   🔹How yoga has shifted towards a performative sport rather than a personal practice. 🔹That clothing should enhance our authentic selves, not serve as a punishment. 🔹The importance of challenging societal norms around body image.   Make your yoga practice 2x more potent in 1/2 the time with my Free Yoga Transformational Portal ✨   Book: Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle FREE Practice: Kundalini Meditation for Confidence & Self-Love (25-min) Relevant Blog: How To Fall In Love With Yourself: 7 Daily Practices   Relevant to Today’s Episode: 📖 Yoga Life Book  ✅ 200-hour Online Yoga Teacher Training 🐍 Yoga for Self Mastery 🔮 Somatic Yoga Life Coaching 🎧 Also Listen to: #298 – Biohack Your Body & Diet with Aggie Lal #302 – Toxic Words: The 3 Phrases I Stopped Saying for More Confidence #314 – Stop Abandoning Yourself By Leveraging Yoga & Meditation   © 2024 Uplifted Yoga | BrettLarkin.com  

A lot of us struggle with shame, self-sabotage, and setting boundaries. I know I used to! Andrea Owen, author and life coach, is here to tell you the hard truth. That shame is inevitable in life and it's not going away. BUT, self-compassion, empathy, and mindfulness are key components of building shame resilience. We also talk about how personal growth ebbs and flows and setting boundaries is essential. Yes it can be challenging, but it is important to prioritize your own needs and well-being. Listen in as Andrea explains:   🔹Shame as a normal and inevitable part of life, rather than something to be overcome. 🔹The connection between shame and behaviors such as people-pleasing and perfectionism. 🔹Strategies for building shame resilience, including self-compassion, empathy, and speaking shame.   🪷 It’s the last day to sign up for the Abundance Challenge => https://www.brettlarkin.com/abundancechallenge/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=socialshare&utm_term=1&utm_content=1&utm_campaign=abundancechallengeny21   🎁 Get my FREE $67 Somatic Self Healing Workshop => https://www.brettlarkin.com/ffy?utm_medium=social&utm_source=podcast&utm_campaign=ffy  GUEST EXPERT: Andrea Owen | https://andreaowen.com/ Keynote Speaker.
