Why is the thought of going to the gym so anxiety inducing? Because exercise—literally just moving our bodies—is wrapped up in fat-shaming, ableism, sexism, and all kinds of other nasty stuff. On this episode, we talk about getting physical and feeling good, including hearing a dispatch from a roller derby league (go Rose City Rollers!). The last half of the show is all about yoga, featuring a conversation with fat-positive yoga sensation Jessamyn Stanley and a look at how one woman uses yoga to heal from PTSD.
