Yoga & Body Image: Share Your Thoughts?

What do these women have in common? They're all Olympic Athletes. Just goes to show that bodies come in ALL shapes and sizes. Photoshoot by Howard Schartz and Beverly Ornstein, titled “The Athlete” (Image via http://ninamatsumoto.wordpress.com/).

As many of you might know by now, I'm in the process of writing my thesis paper for Advanced Teacher Training on the topic of Yoga & Body Image. As I mentioned in December, this is a subject that I'm very passionate about, and I've already found it to be an extremely interesting and fulfilling topic. But, I need more information from real yogis--not just the people blogging about this subject or who are already thinking about it and starting movements around it--but the people who are living it and feeling it on a daily basis. So that's where you come in. 

To all my yogi readers: would you pretty please fill out my Yoga & Body Image Survey, below?  You can skip any questions that don't apply to you or resonate with you, but I'd love to hear your point of view and experience with this subject. The survey is anonymous and there are only 10 questions :) 

If you'd rather fill it out on the main survey page, click here, otherwise, you can complete and submit below. 
Thanks!

Thanks for participating! 

I'll be sure to share more information on my thesis topic as I delve even deeper into the subject in the coming months... 

Namaste and lots of body love,
Mary Catherine
