Experience Body Acceptance on the Cellular Level with Anna Guest-Jelley
Anna is big into Body Acceptance and I’m big into Body Thrive. In this episode we tease apart the levels and layers on the journey to deeply embodied living. Anna Guest-Jelley is the founder of Curvy Yoga, the author of Curvy Yoga: Love Yourself & Your Body a Little More Each Day. She and I have talked before on the show. I was curious about what happened since the last time we talked about the growth of Curvy Yoga and their curriculum development and her life at the helm of a growing yoga organization.
I rap with Anna Guest-Jelley about:- Body Acceptance
- How Yoga works on Beginners
- Why the process of self- acceptance + cellular embodiment take time
- Is a support community a necessity to evolve?
From Anna “One thing that's really up for me right now is *how* we learn to listen to our bodies -- and particularly how yoga can help us with that. I think of body acceptance as an ongoing conversation with our bodies, so this listening skill is really key. We talk about both how this unfolds for us as students/practitioners as well as how teachers can help facilitate it.”
