Plus size yoga diary
The journey is the reward.
– Tao Expression
As a plus size women, completing a 200 hour yoga teaching training was a significant achievement for me.
It was an achievement I wanted to celebrate!
I wanted to celebrate my resilience and determination. I wanted to celebrate with comfortable yoga outfits that reflected how I felt on the inside. I wanted to celebrate with bright and bold colours and designs. I wanted to celebrate with clothing that fit.
After weeks of searching, I could not actually find anything that I wanted to wear.
Two days later, I remember standing in a change room and being overwhelmed with a feeling that I wanted to wear one of my own designs to my first yoga class.
It was during lockdown that I finally found both the time and space to make it happen.
This post is about the importance of confidence. Having confidence in myself as an artist. Having confidence in the incredible wisdom of my body and having confidence to believe that I can inspire other plus size men and women.
I look forward to sharing more about my plus size yoga journey soon.
