Becoming Body Neutral | Bethany Meyers | TEDxBethuneStreetWomen

Fitness instructor turned CEO, Bethany C. Meyers, discusses why shifting the motive for movement is a key to long term physical and mental health. After struggling with eating disorders and body dysmorphia for the majority of their fitness career, Meyers tossed out their old rule book and their bathroom scale with the intention of becoming body neutral — meaning some days we feel positive about our body, some days we feel negative about our body, but all days we respect our body. In this vulnerable, incredibly personal talk, Meyers insists that we have the power to defy beauty standards simply by celebrating who we already are. Bethany C. Meyers, founder of the be.come project, is an in-demand NYC-based master instructor known for their body-positive and inclusive approach to instruction. With over a decade of experience, Bethany has taught countless group classes, private clients and trained numerous instructors. Bethany’s knowledge of the body and alignment is visible in the be.come project’s customized weekly routines as they bring the high-quality, effective boutique fitness experience in home. Aside from fitness, Bethany is an outspoken member and activist of the LGBTQIA+ community and a leader in women’s empowerment. They openly share their struggles and strengths with their community in hopes of highlighting authentic messaging in the wellness space. From eating disorders, to gender equality, to open relationships; no topic is off limits when it comes to empowering humans to always lead with love. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
