šŸ™šŸ¼ This is why I say, so often, that we need to stay close to ourselves and — with help and support as needed — work to find safety in being *in* our body. Because our culture will stop at nothing to keep us feeling like we are separate from our body, teaching us it’s merely a thing we need to control.

Body image healing is about many things, and it will never be the same person to person. Identities impact this. Trauma impacts this. Environment, medical conditions, culture. Yet for all of us, at some level, healing requires peeling back the layers of conditioning and unlearning the belief that our worth is tied to how we look. It’s about rejecting the idea that our body is an offering to the world — something to perfect or fix to gain approval, love, or belonging.

In the face of that, it’s about remembering who you are at your core—a person of inherent value, creativity, kindness, and resilience.

When we remember our bodies are vessels for our magic, rather than measures of our worth, we free ourselves from the relentless pressure of diet culture and beauty standards. We can begin to live more fully, focusing on what truly matters: our relationships, passions, joy.

Healing isn’t linear, and the world will try to pull you back into old patterns. But the more you root yourself in this truth—that you are not your body but the magic it carries—the more grounded you become in your truth. Reclaiming this is an act of self-compassion, and a path towards collective liberation. When you decide your worth is not found in your appearance, you begin to see others differently, too ā™„ļø

Talk to me in the comments: How would those closest to you describe you? (I bet it’s not about your body)

A new year doesn’t require a new body.
It invites presence, curiosity, and care.
We’re supporting a softer entry into January —
one that centers nervous-system safety, nourishment, and respect for your body as it is.

We're loving this message from Daily Wellness about easing into the new year, versus the go go go that resolution-mindset can create.

Celebrate your ability to ease back into routine at a pace that actually works for you. This week, honor the fact that you're giving yourself realistic adjustment time instead of forcing instant momentum. Your thoughtful approach to re-entry is something to be proud of.

Reframe this week: Instead of "I should be doing more by now," think "I'm building something sustainable by starting at a realistic pace, and that's exactly what works."

Much love;

3 years ago Jennifer Bartlett joined our team and we're so glad she did! Jennifer sees folx virtually and in person at her office space in Woodstock. She is our go to for teen referrals and teaches both safeTALK and ASIST, in French, and you guessed it, is bilingual (French/English).

This is from a number of years ago in Toronto, and is still so powerful. Who wants to make one and then have a burn party with the drop offs! 🤣

This amazing street display in Toronto was created to raise awareness of how the unrealistic images we see in media and advertising can affect the self-esteem of girls and women. Created by NEDIC - National Eating Disorder Information Centre of Canada, it reads: "For years, body image among girls and women has taken a hit from the beauty industry's ubiquitous message that 'skinny is hot' and any other look is 'not'. Now is your chance to send the beauty industry a message. If you think it's time fashion editors and lifestyle advertisers broadened their definition of beauty and inspired us with a range of different shapes and sizes, ditch one or all or your women's magazines through the slot on the other side of this transit shelter."

With 46% of 9 year-old girls 'sometimes' or 'very often' on diets, girls' self-esteem peaking at age 9 and 80% of girls reporting being afraid of becoming fat by age 10, fostering a healthy self image is a big priority for many parents of Mighty Girls. To help make it easier, we've compiled a collection of excellent books on body image for girls from toddlers to teens in our ā€œBody Imageā€ section at http://www.amightygirl.com/books/personal-development/life-challenges?cat=378

For books for parents that address body image issues, including the helpful guide "101 Ways to Help Your Daughter Love Her Body," visit our "Body Image / Self-Esteem" parenting section at http://www.amightygirl.com/parenting/body-image-self-esteem

And, if you are concerned that your Mighty Girl may be showing signs of disordered eating or are seeking books to help spark more discussion around eating disorders, check out the resources for both Mighty Girls and parents in our blog post ā€œTalking with Tweens and Teens About Eating Disordersā€ at http://www.amightygirl.com/blog?p=1597

This season, let's trade food guilt for presence, joy, and connection!

If this feels difficult for you, that's okay. It's a process to unlearn diet culture and come back to ourselves.
Maybe we're the team to support you with this.
Our hope is to help people build intuitive relationships with food and movement and create space for presence and connection in their bodies.
