Inside this episode, you’ll hear us talk more about:
- Leslie’s journey with yoga and how yoga helped her to foster more self-acceptance
- How everything in Leslie’s life became more enjoyable – including her sex life – after she put attention on her pelvic floor
- The pelvic floor and the role it plays in both yoga and life
- Why more women need to know about their pelvic floor and why it’s important
- Why you need to build a relationship around your pelvis that isn’t sexual
- And, so much more!

Meet Our Guest, Leslie Howard
As a yoga practitioner and teacher, Leslie specializes in the therapeutic use of yoga for many issues but specifically for pelvic floor problems. After suffering from hypertonic pelvic syndrome, she found relief from her symptoms by a careful application of Iyengar-style/influenced and breath work and since then she has continued to refine and develop the application of yoga for the pelvic floor for herself and others.
To this end, for the past seven years, she has taught women of all ages to practice yoga to alleviate pelvic floor conditions, including urinary incontinence, through a combination of small group teaching, public workshops, and national conferences.
