Get your body moving: she credits her victory to yoga
GET YOUR BODY MOVING: SHE CREDITS HER VICTORY TO YOGA
Melissa MacKinnon overcame a lifelong eating disorder by using the mind/body rituals of yoga to change the way she looked at food and at herself.
Melissa, of Schenectady, New York, can trace her destructive eating pattern back to the age of 9. "I would starve myself for days before giving in to overwhelming cravings for Oreo cookies or any other sweets that Mom had on hand," she recalls. "I wasn't too particular, but afterward, I'd get angry at myself."
It was a vicious cycle that followed her all the way to graduate school. All the while, her weight fluctuated wildly. By age 26, she weighed 220 pounds.
"Intellectually, I knew that I had an eating problem and that it was only making my life worse," Melissa says. "But my mind and body were at absolute odds, and I couldn't get them to reconcile." Until she discovered yoga.
"It looked so relaxing and easy, so perfect for my imperfect body," Melissa says. And she knew that she had to get active if she wanted to slim down. She had tried aerobics, but it just didn't appeal to her.
Yoga did more than get Melissa in shape. It had positive effects that she never expected. Her energy level soared. As she became more attuned to her body, she understood its need for proper nourishment. She began craving greens and vegetables instead of chocolate. She replaced refined sugars with brown-rice syrup. "As yoga rewired my mind, I learned to take better care of my body," she says.
In 8 months, Melissa lost 60 pounds. Now age 33, she has maintained her weight for 7 years without resorting to the extremes of bingeing and starving that once tore her life apart. "And I owe it all to yoga," she says.
In fact, she's so thankful to yoga for changing her life that she became a licensed instructor in order to share its benefits with others.
WINNING ACTION
Trim and tone your body with yoga. Gentle and low-impact, yoga may not seem like a calorie-burning activity, but it is. And it has other benefits as well. As Melissa discovered, the discipline of yoga has a mind-body effect that can go a long way toward untying some of the mental knots that may be standing between you and your weight-loss goals.
