Evanna Lynch might have shot to fame as a child actor playing Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter films, but she’s also a committed vegan, a body positivity ambassador and the author of a powerful new book charting her eating disorder and subsequent mental health journey and recovery – The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting. In this honest and sometimes emotional conversation, she talks about why she wrote the book to change the conversation around eating disorders and put the focus on mental wellbeing, and to give comfort to other sufferers. She also explains how her veganism helps with her mental health and to feel connected to nature, and that once you ‘root your why’ being vegan comes from a place of joy. Evanna offers her advice for anyone struggling with a negative body image and how to feel better about your body. Please be aware this episode does include an honest conversation about eating disorders, which some may find upsetting. This episode is compelling and sometimes raw, but the message is ultimately uplifting – how to love and accept yourself.

On this bonus Christmas episode of The Art Of Living Now Emma-Louise is joined by actress, writer and podcaster, Evanna Lynch who many of you may well recognize as Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter, a role she was cast in at just 14 years old. Evanna joined the Harry Potter franchise for the fifth installment of the film series - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007) and reprised her role in successive sequels to critical praise, concluding with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 (2011). In 2013 Evanna made her stage debut touring the UK in Houdini and went on to appear in numerous theatre productions thereafter, at one point ascending a somewhat different stage when she competed in Dancing with the stars, coming third place. Well done. Evanna is also an activist advocating for veganism and animal rights - hosted a podcast on veganism Called Chickpeeps and co-founded the vegan and cruelty-free make-up and beauty care box Kinder Beauty Box. She has just published her first book, a memoir entitled ‘The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting - the tragedy and glory of growing up’ about how she overcame a life-threatening eating disorder, began to conquer her self-hate and confronted her fear of leaving the neatness and safety of girlhood for the unpredictable journey of being a woman.
