Health at Every Size

This month, I want to shine some light and love on the Health at Every Size model (HAES). I will be giving a digital presentation with the official HAES curriculum on August 14th, check out this link to learn more and sign up. 

I am so excited to share this enriching and inclusive perspective on health and wellness. This curriculum will support you in releasing food preoccupation, body dissatisfaction, and stress while guiding you towards inner peace, self-acceptance, resiliency, and health. 

Why Health at Every Size?

We need more health-focused, weight-natural, social justice/systems oriented approaches applied to public policy, corporate wellness initiatives, and individual health programs and that is EXACTLY what HAES is about.

There are too many people being manipulated into the dangerous cycle of yo-yo dieting in the name of health and wellness.

Join me in saying, “We have had ENOUGH! We deserve BETTER!”

Individuals need to know that they can trust their impulse to seek health resources, but they cannot trust diet or weight-loss programs.

HAES Basic Components

Respect

Celebrate body diversity by honoring differences in size, age, race, ethnicity, gender, dis/ability, sexual orientation, religion, class, and other human attributes.

​Critical Awareness

Challenges scientific and cultural assumptions,  value body knowledge and lived experiences.

Compassionate Self-care

Find the joy in moving one’s body and being physically active. Eat in a flexible and attuned manner that values pleasure and honors internal cues of hunger, satiety, and appetite, while respecting the social conditions that frame eating options.

I hope to see you at the upcoming training. Please reach out via the Contact Me page if you have any questions.
