How yoga has helped me to finally feel at home in my body

[Trigger warning: eating disorders/ distorted body image] One of the aspects of yoga I am most grateful for is that yoga has helped me to feel good about myself again. As a teenager I struggled with eating disorders. Luckily, I “got over it“ after a few years - meaning I stopped with the destructive behavior, got back a “healthy“ weight and enjoyed food again (mostly without a guilty conscience). However, what stayed for years to come: A pretty distorted body image. Yoga has changed that. Yoga has healed me.
