Unlearning Body Shame:

Anti-fat Bias and Body Acceptance

“A much-needed space to explore fatphobia and the body. High recommended!”

ONLINE DAY 1: Saturday 30th September BOOKING 

IN PERSON (Bristol): Day 1 Saturday 14th October BOOKING

IN PERSON (Bristol): Day 2 Saturday 11th November BOOKING

DAY 1: a safe, nourishing and empowering space to help you reflect on how you feel about bodies and unlearn body shame whilst exploring body acceptance and anti-fat bias 

DAY 2: an experiential workshop specifically for therapists to become more curious & anti-oppressive in their work with clients of all sizes 

What will we cover:

Day 1: (all welcome) 

The racist and ableist legacy of weight stigma and deconstructing what diet and wellness culture is; confronting your own beliefs and attitudes about fat; learning the harm that comes from anti-fat bias and discrimination; the impact of societal and personal values towards weight and food; how to challenge/ advocate when confronted with anti-fat stigma; introduction to Joyful Movement and Intuitive Eating.

Day 2: (for therapists who have attended day 1) 

Fat oppression in therapy and why this is so important to explore; examples of anti-oppressive practice with clients of all sizes; how to provide more effective therapy through increased awareness; live case study and supervision group exercises 

‘Eye-opening, radical and empowering. I only wish I’d done this workshop earlier.’
