A Rebirthing of Self
Becoming a mother is often a difficult transition. Especially for women who are dedicated Ashtanga yoga practitioners before becoming pregnant. We gain a beautiful baby, but our bodies go through a very intense process, not only from the nine months of pregnancy, but also through delivery, and also with a sometimes longer than expected period of recovery. Our physical self changes dramatically, and our spiritual, emotional and psychological selves are all undergoing a significant transformation also. Harmony and Bibi discuss the inner turmoil of wanting things to be like they used to be, and recognizing that they will never be that way, coming up against obstacles of time, obligations, responsibilities, and fatigue…
Ashtangorexia Nervosa
Bibi Lorenzetti is a new mother and an intensely dedicated Ashtanga yoga practitioner. What most people don’t realize is, like Russell and Harmony, Bibi shares body dysmorphia and has suffered with Anorexia Nervosa. In this episode we talk about how the urgency to “progress” at the physical side of the yoga practice, often comes at the expense of one’s health, which is traced more deeply to old feelings of insecurity. And how Bibi’s mindful and conscious approach helped to prepare her for pregnancy and becoming a mother.
