In this group, we’ll slow things down and look at the story behind body image.
Together, we’ll explore where these beliefs came from, how they’ve been reinforced, and most importantly, how you can begin to rewrite them.
Who is it for - Anyone struggling with body image, but especially:
LGBTQIA+ individuals
Individuals whose body-related thoughts feel overwhelming or limiting
People experiencing low self-esteem
Folks unpacking diet culture or appearance-based pressure
People navigation body changes due to adulthood, stress, health issues or life transitions
Those feeling disconnected from their bodies
Individuals who find themselves stuck in cycles of comparison, scrolling, and self-criticism
People with marginalized identities
Anyone wanting to create a more compassionate, self-defined body image
And any or all combinations (or none) of the above
