Through his account Instagram and with his blog Valerie shows that Yoga is truly for everyone and that even those with a few extra pounds can enjoy the advantages and benefits of this practice for both body and mind.
The images that portray it are changing the way in which Yoga is conceived in the West in recent times, that is, as a practice intended only for those with an agile, flexible, slender and athletic body, ready to try their hand at the most extraordinary acrobatics.
Valerie is known on the web by her nickname Big Gal Yoga, which gives its website its name, born for encourage everyone to practice Yoga and to love their body. Her passion for Yoga in 2016 will lead her to attend a course to become a teacher of this ancient discipline.
If until now you thought that practicing asanas was only possible by people with a "standard" physique, very thin or particularly muscular and trained, here is the images of Valerie practicing the asanas will make you change your mind.
Valerie's commitment and message are truly to be admired. Yoga is first of all a practice that helps in inner growth and in its essence it cannot be considered as a mere physical activity.
Thanks to Yoga everyone can learn to get in touch in a new way with their mind and body until they do something extraordinary and unthinkable until recently.
We are grateful to Valerie for her courage, her determination and her message: learn to love yourself and your body thanks to Yoga. Yoga is truly a terrific resource for everyone, regardless of what their body shape is. If you have been hesitant up to now, take courage and approach that special transformation path that only Yoga can offer you.
