With Lauren‘s guidance, we started to inspect, explore, investigate, remember our own attitudes. The next morning we gathered again for more education, dancing, listening to thoughtful body-positivity songs, guided journaling, sharing, and drawing, as we went deeper inside our own beliefs about our bodies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f1c3198d211d708886c981/1674107926764-OHCPP2BI9610JM7BFAXL/IMG_5998.jpeg Behind-the-Scenes - Body-Positive Therapeutic Workshops https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f1c3198d211d708886c981/1674107926586-KBVGA1PJPM750S0T9XQV/IMG_5994.jpeg Behind-the-Scenes - Body-Positive Therapeutic Workshops https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f1c3198d211d708886c981/9de5a8dd-7dd7-4af9-b3ad-a8a5648bed1d/IMG_6077.JPG Behind-the-Scenes - Body-Positive Therapeutic Workshops - For this particular piece, this person described feeling rigid on the sides of her belly: historically she had been expected to hold herself tightly.
