Body awareness, eating attitudes, and spiritual beliefs of women practicing yoga.
Dittmann, Katherine.

Body awareness, eating attitudes, and spiritual beliefs of women practicing yoga. - 95 p.

Adviser: Marjorie Freedman.

Thesis (M.S.)--San Jose State University, 2008.

Study 1 tested whether spiritual readiness in women who practice postural yoga was associated with greater body awareness, body responsiveness, intuitive eating, and body satisfaction, with body mass index (BMI) as a covariate. Participants completed questionnaires on these measures. As predicted, they scored higher than average on all measures. There were significant correlations (p > 0.01) among all main variables except between spiritual readiness and intuitive eating, and between BMI and both body awareness and spiritual readiness. Women's reasons for practicing (i.e., psychospiritual or physical) did not affect scores on these measures. Study 2 evaluated interviews in a subset of the original sample. Qualitative data showed that women who practiced postural yoga reported improvements in body satisfaction, disordered eating, and self-acceptance which they attributed in part to their yoga practice and its associated spirituality.
