Re-Introducing My Body to My Mind

Guest contributor Taylor Bowman loved to move as a child. From bopping her head or tapping her toe or shaking her hips, movement was a natural part of her. But this all changed when critical comments about her maturing and changing body caused Taylor to begin judging her body, which resulted in an eating disorder. In this blog post, Taylor shares her pain of feeling unworthy to move or exist in her body, and her triumph of reconnecting with her body through dance, yoga, and other forms of movement on her healing path to self-acceptance.
