As a Yoga Teacher I’ve seen just how much an impact yoga can make to improve health and fitness but more importantly I know this through personal experience. I have Fibromyalgia, a chronic disorder that robs you of your physical strength, energy and keeps you in constant pain. Before I discovered yoga I could barely get out of bed in the morning and my weight ballooned to 155kg, but then it all changed. Not overnight, and not easily but with an understanding teacher I started to gain my strength back and lose weight. More importantly, I started to regain my confidence in myself - I CAN do this - I just need to take it slow and modify some poses or use props to accommodate my condition. Why am I telling you this? I want to help people who may have their own health issues get back on their feet. I know how scary it can be to try something new when everything hurts, or to be the only plus-sized person in the room struggling to keep up. I've been there. I also know how amazing it feels when you start taking back some control. What you CAN do is the important thing, NOT what you can't. Focus on the small achievements and they will gradually become one large awesome achievement. Take your broken wings and learn to fly.
