Lauren LeDuc shares her journey of overcoming an eating disorder and finding healing through yoga. Growing up in a Bible Belt community, she struggled with rigid expectations and the pressure to fit in. With the support of her family and the introduction of yoga in an inpatient program, Lauren discovered a sense of peace and began her path to self-love and self-realization. Yoga helped her separate herself from her thoughts and observe them with compassion, leading to a profound transformation. By connecting with her body and treating it with love, she found a natural homeostasis and overcame her fear of weight gain. In this conversation, Lauren discusses her journey of healing from an eating disorder and finding self-acceptance. She emphasizes the importance of treating the body with love and how this can lead to a more positive body image. Lauren also explores the impact of stress on the body and the benefits of practices like yoga and breathwork. She shares her insights on expanding one's world through healing and the power of shifting perspectives in different environments. Additionally, Lauren introduces her book, 'Embodied Your Inner Goddess,' and discusses her upcoming projects and offerings.
