About the workshop:
Every day, women are bombarded by the command to be thin, lose weight, and get a flat belly fast.  Images of severely malnourished models and actresses penetrate our gaze whenever we step into the grid.  When coupled with stress and lack of awareness, these words and images can lead us down a self-destructive path that can erode self-esteem and lead to psychological and physical harm.  In this supportive, affirming workshop led by two yoga teachers with varied backgrounds, women will get the chance to evaluate the cultural ‘norms’ that keep us on the weight-obsession treadmill, formulate pro-active plans to bring peace into our self-image, and discuss our stories to discover common ground.

This workshop is designed for any woman who:
Struggles with her weight, has ever felt “too fat”, diets when not medically necessary, judges her body parts as flawed, or has ever felt less than worthy compared to others based on her weight.
