Move it Mama - The Sparkle Pod

Ainslie - through orthorexia, 7 years no periods & finding yoga


Listen Later

Ainslie Maura Speedy aka Ains, our darling Te Kuiti based girl who teaches Monday night yoga for Move it Mama. Leece met Ainslie about 4.5 years ago at a speaking event in Otorohanga. Fast forward a few years to two weekends ago where we all got to meet and spend time with Ains during the weekend of the Move it Mama party. What a blessing. Ainslie is the epitome of warm - a self-proclaimed old soul with some very wise words. Having been a runner in her teens and into her twenties, Ainslie developed orthorexia - for many years leading an obsessive lifestyle of under-eating and over-exercising. This caused her to lose her period for about 7 years, and a plethora of health issues. In this episode we discuss this, what it looked like for her, how she managed to climb her way out of it and get to a place of recovery and what part yoga had to play in this. This is a really thought provoking listen and we hope you enjoy our musings and chat. A pleasure to have you on Ains - only a year or so late to the party.
