Girlvana

When Alex Mazerolle was a teenager, she found herself in a dark cycle of disordered eating, self-hatred, and low self-esteem. Then, in the middle of a difficult period, Alex went to a yoga class. As she moved and slowed her breath, something changed. Born out of retreats that Alex began holding for teenage, self-identified women aged 12-19, ‘Girlvana’ is a handbook to face, overcome, and embrace the challenges that come with the teenage years. The culmination of decades of work, it is a call to action for the self that helps teenage girls work through their feeling, mental health, and bodies.
