“Having a health condition, being chronically ill, or disabled, doesn’t make you and your body any less worthy of respect and dignity. Health is not a prerequisite for your presence in and contribution to this world, whatever that may be, being valued.” - Jess Campbell via @haes_studentdoctor Monday reminder. You and your body deserve to be respected and valued exactly as you are, right this second, regardless of your health status - physical, mental, emotional otherwise. #haes #haesig #healthateverysize #healthateverysizemovement #health #healthy #fat #fatpositive #fatacceptance #bopo #bodypositive #bodyacceptance #bodyaffirmative #bodyaffirmation #bodyaffirmations #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #monday #mondayvibes #haestherapy #haesnyc #bodyaffirmativetherapy #ed #edrecovery (at Greenwich Village, New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7RAVZDg-_T/?igshid=nczgjiiidr53

Look at @gmf.designs ' beautiful depiction of @lizzobeeating's performance at the #VMAs2019. If this wasn't a #bodyaffirming performance, I don't know what was! #mentalhealthawareness #repost from @gmf.designs #reposta #reposta_app @reposta_app just watched @lizzobeeatingas performance of truth hurts / good as hell on the vmaas, and wow I love her so much. we really need more female artists who help everyone achieve genuine self-love, especially people whose bodies are not loved by societyas standards. we need more love for fat bodies, for black and brown bodies, for disabled bodies, for bodies with cellulite, for bodies with stretch marks, for bodies with moles, for bodies with scars, for any type of body that needs love. you deserve to feel good as hell. we all deserve to feel good as hell. #lizzo #truthhurts #bodypositive #bodypositivity #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthart https://www.instagram.com/p/B1sWZ24JTYp/?igshid=6vez67fq40ql

I AM proud to be a non-diet health professional. I missed the day itself thanks to a delicious social media hiatus, but am still here, celebrating on May 14th instead. For me, as a therapist, this mostly means being committed to Health at Every Size principles, and focusing on rebuilding my patients’ relationships with food and their bodies. Often, this starts with restoring my patients’ abilities to tap into their intuition and experiences and helping them lead from that deeply grounded, rooted space. Sometimes, the work stays focused on bodily experiences, but often it takes us to places where we learn about the messages you’ve been receiving about yourself and your body - from family, from society at large and yes, from #dietculture. I like to think of my work as being body affirmative. Affirming your right and capacity to be in your body, whether your ability to inhabit your body has been influenced by trauma, oppression, chronic illness, diet culture or all of the above. You’re welcome with me. #haes #bodypositivity #bodypositive #healthateverysize #health #nondiet #haestherapist #haesnyc #bopo #tuesdaythoughts #bodyaffirmation #bodyaffirmativetherapy #bodyaffirmative https://www.instagram.com/nyctherapywithlauren/p/BxdGvtGAfu-/?igshid=10purx1h9b84n

Wise words from Julie Murphy. ( @andimjulie ) Be. In. Pictures. this holiday season. No matter your size, your shape, how bad of a hair day you are having, whatever your reason. Be in the pictures. You have permission to celebrate and exist in exactly the body you have right now, in exactly the point of life you are at right now. You don’t have to lose weight, have a significant other, have a child, any of it. You get to be exactly as you are and where you are. Happy Holidays. #haes #healthateverysize #haesig #bodypositive #bopo #bodyaffirmative #fatpositive #fatpositivity #fatliberation #fatlib #haesnyc #haesny #holidayseason #holidayspirit #holidays #holiday #holidaylove https://www.instagram.com/p/B6eILQYApbo/?igshid=8e8980xjt9b2

So, I did a thing last week and changed my profile picture on Instagram to an actual picture of me. I had switched to using my logo a few months after starting this account. It was the first time I had maintained a public social media account in years. The amount of DMs - sexual harassment, creepy messages, body policing - that happened only in those few months made my skin crawl. I was entirely unprepared for it and just opted out entirely by switching to my logo. Hiding behind a series of green and blue dots felt safer. But it also never totally felt right, either. Particularly when my body is such a big part of the work that I do. I elicit patients responses to my body, what it’s like to sit with a therapist in a fat body, and invite them to talk about their bodies. Positive feelings, negative feelings, neutral feelings, observations of internalized beliefs that they intellectually know to be invalid but can’t seem to let go of - all feelings about bodies - and all bodies, period - are welcome in my office. So, it’s only fitting that my body is present on my Instagram account, isn’t it? It feels like a bit of an imperative. Creepy messages be damned (esp with that new filtered message feature!). #haes #healthateverysize #fat #fatacceptance #fatliberation #bodyaffirmative #bodyimage #bopo #bodypositive #everybodyisagoodbody #haesig https://www.instagram.com/p/B45NHY5AeSE/?igshid=167f2tmi5u883

So, tell me again about how your body size, weight, health status etc determines your worth or your lovability? That’s right, it doesn’t. Regardless of what our culture dictates. When we look within ourselves, and consider our relationships to others’ bodies, hopefully, we can see that it isn’t the be all end all it’s made out to be. Our self perception is not the only thing that needs to change, however. If anything, this is exceptionally difficult to shift within our culture. Our cultural messaging that repeatedly re-emphasizes the idea that certain bodies - thin, cis, white, able - are “better” or “ideal” - this is what really needs to shift. #wsaw2019 was so uplifting, precisely because there was more united visibility of folks trying to disrupt that and fight back. That’s only the beginning. Every week should be weight stigma aware!

“Stop prescribing to larger bodies what you diagnose as an eating disorder in smaller bodies.” - Dr Deb Burgard I’ve seen this quote floating around unattributed as of late, and want to be sure that Deb’s work gets the credit it so rightly deserves. #haes #healthateverysize #bopo #bodypositive #bodyaffirmative #antidiet #fatacceptance #debburgard #quotes #eatingdisorderrecovery #realtalk (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2mO3-sAdkM/?igshid=mdb3jejo1ssy
