SE2 - Episode 10: Move your body with love with Ana Stefan

For the final episode of Season two I am sharing with you my conversation about movement as path to body acceptance and moving our bodies with love, that I had with Pilates and Yoga Teacher Ana Stefan.Because movement and exercise can become so bound up in weigh loss pursuits, which often affects our relationship with moving our body, speaking with someone who take as different approach to this felt very important.Ana Stefan, aka The Aligned Body Coach, helps women to see how truly amazing their bodies - and full selves - are, through mindful and aligned movement. She combines her wisdom in Pilates, Yoga, Meditation, Myofascial Movement and Breathwork to take a mindful approach to movement that supports women in attaining their Aligned Body.In this episode we talk about Ana’s own journey with movement and exercise and how approaching it with functionality in mind, rather than weight loss set her on both a new career path, but also towards body acceptance and gratitude for her body.I am also delighted to find out that Ana is a big foodie and get a lot of pleasure from food, just like me!Enjoy this conversation.Find Ana Stefan – The Aligned Body Coach hereWebsite https://www.anastefan.ie/Instagram: @thealignedbodycoachPodcast: Another MindBody StoryEpisode from Ana’s Podcast that is mentioned:My ability to do the splits was affecting my mental health - from hyper mobility to facia revelation with Susan ChurchFind me over on Straightforward Nutritionhttps://straightforwardnutrition.com/My 1:1 work  https://straightforwardnutrition.com/eating-disorder-support/Book in for a 30 min free initial session https://eatingfreelycallwithlinn.as.me/schedule.phpAnd sign up for my newsletter and join the Joyful + Nourishment community Get full access to Joyful + Nourishment at linnt.substack.com/subscribe
