Exploring Body Positivity
Monday, February 6

Many of us have heard of body positivity, but how many of us truly understand it or integrate it into our daily lives? The media often promotes unrealistic images of bodies and "beauty" that can be harmful to us all and make it more difficult for us to embrace and love our bodies fully. In this session, you will explore ways in which you can learn to love and celebrate your body in a more positive way.
