Anna Lutz and Elizabeth Davenport chat with Registered Dietitian and yoga teacher, Jessica Grosman, about the origins and many different aspects of yoga, including how to incorporate yoga into family life. Jessica also talks about how diet culture has co-opted yoga in ways that can make it feel inaccessible for many people. 

We discuss:

  • The true definition of yoga
  • How diet culture distorts our perceptions of yoga
  • How yoga is about so much more than stretching and moving your body
  • Ways parents can incorporate yoga into family life
  • How to make yoga and mindfulness relatable for younger children
  • How diet culture has negatively impacted the yoga community and the way yoga is taught
