Through self-objectification, women experience shame, a decrease in self-esteem, and a disconnection from their selves and their bodies. Research results indicate a cyclical nature to the negative consequences of self-objectification: Shame resulting from self-objectification causes a decrease in self-esteem, which causes a disconnection within oneself and from others, which, in turn, causes more shame. Relational-cultural theory (RCT) is based on the premise that through relationships, one can learn to reconnect with his/her authentic self and with others. The physical and mental practice of yoga, including breath work (pranayama), also offers a path to connection. In this article, we discuss the harm resulting from self-objectification and how it specifically relates to women, and we propose a model for mitigating the negative consequences by combining RCT and the physical and mental practice of yoga.
