Love, Curvy Yoga

: Practice notes -- something we learned from our practice this week

: And, our gratitude for the week!

On the podcast this week we’re sharing:

: Our highs/lows

: An interview with one of our Curvy Yoga teachers, Beth Silvers, who is also a co-host of the Pantsuit Politics and The Nuanced Life podcasts. We talk about how yoga isn’t about being good at it or not good at it, what body acceptance looks like for Beth, and how to use yoga to check in more (as opposed to less) to the world around you. It’s such a great conversation!

Yay -- our podcast is back! And this time, I have a co-host! In our first episode back, Liz Eskridge (our new Curvy Operations Officer) and I give you an update on the podcast, and we also introduce several new segments. In our main segment, we discuss the 3 best things we've ever done for ourselves (and no, they're not yoga and meditation because we thought you'd guess that anyway).

I think one of the biggest gifts of yoga is how it can meet your needs in any given moment. But I also think one of the biggest challenges is figuring out how to actually do that. So in this last episode of Season 5 I'm giving some examples of how you could do that!

In our last episode we talked about the seasons and cycles of life. Did you know that applies to your yoga practice, too? In today's episode I'm talking about how seeing and honoring the seasons of your yoga practice can keep you practicing more consistently over time -- and with more kindness and less self-blame.
