#117: Your Body, Your Best Friend with Erica Mather
Manage episode 353509059 series 2685312
Erica Mather is a certified Yoga Therapist and the author of “Your Body, Your Best Friend: End the Confidence-Crushing Pursuit of Unrealistic Beauty Standards & Embrace Your True Power”. She brings her own struggles with body image from a young age and transformational yoga principles to guiding people to feel better in their bodies, no matter what body challenges they have.
On the podcast, we talked about why it’s so common for folks to dissociate with painful internal body talk and the difference between objectification and embodiment. We also talked about the importance of recognizing unrealistic thin body ideals and fat bias and the role of personal responsibility in freeing yourself from the impact of them. Erica shares what it’s like to have your body as your best friend, so you can see that possibility for yourself. We also talked about body image in the yoga community, our drive for belonging, and how choosing to befriend your body is an ultimate act of defiance.
