A new Instagram account features tasteful black-and-white photos of an anonymous 25-year-old photographer doing yoga poses bare-skinned. This body positivity promoting account was created only five weeks ago. However, this yoga girl already has around 90k followers.
The yoga lover gets around Instagram’s strict no-nudity rules by hiding her intimate parts with the help of various angles of her flexible body, the use of shadows, and photoshop. All of the beautiful pictures are taken at her home with the help of her boyfriend. The aim is not to make them appealing on the most primal level, but to inspire people to lead happy and healthy lifestyles.
"My biggest issue in the past was that I saw faults in my body all the time, and that made it impossible for me to love myself fully," she told NY Mag. "Yoga helped me accept my body exactly the way it is. With my account, I want to inspire people to realize that everybody is very beautiful and capable of [doing] amazing things with their bodies."
