‘Good enough parenting’ is about how being imperfect is actually beneficial for raising happy, healthy children. ✨

The term was coined by Dr. Donald Winnicott in the 1950s.

Tomorrow, tune into our live talk with our Karen (senior counsellor) and Mary Anne (perinatal therapist) to hear how being imperfect is better for our children and ourselves, and what this looks like in real life. Expect a real, honest, down-to-earth chat.

90% of teenage girls worry about their appearance — an alarming statistic that shows the need for young people to be surrounded by diverse, realistic body representations and messages that prioritise self-worth over appearance. ✨

While this research focuses on teenage girls, we know eating disorders affect people of all genders and ages. Men are often underdiagnosed, transgender and non-binary people face a higher risk, and women can experience them at any stage of life too.

That’s why our Body Esteem Program is open to people of all genders, ages and life stages – providing hope that recovery is possible for everyone. 🧡

Migraines for women are more common than what was previously known, revealed in an amazing new study by Jean Hailes for Women's Health and Migraine & Headache Australia.

This is a call for more validation for women experiencing migraines, and an invitation for more research and workplace consideration.

Young women in Australia are struggling with loneliness, and this has serious impacts on our health including poorer mental and physical health, a reduced quality of life, risk of heart disease and stroke, and more.

The missing ingredient is social connection. But that doesn’t mean we simply need to spend more time around people. Ending Loneliness Together discovered it's about making small moments matter. ❤️

The thoughtful feedback from our latest Anorexia and Bulimia group is a potent reminder of why we do this work. 💗

Our eating disorder programs are created and led by women with lived experience - those who've been there, walked the path of recovery, and just get it. Lived experience is known to deeply enhance treatment, recovery and support. It truly redefines what healing can look like.

To see which groups are coming up, visit: https://luma.org.au/learn/whats-on/

We need to move toward personalised, holistic care that addresses women’s physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health - especially for women in perimenopause and menopause as they go through one of the most significant hormonal changes in life.
