Nurturing Healthy Body Image

"The body is the cup in which to drink the world." --Dr. George Handley In this episode we highlight how attitudes towards body image begin formation at a young age and how body image affects overall mental health. The conversation advocates for a shift in how we view, talk about, and take care of our bodies--Rather than a focus on individual body appearance, listeners are encouraged to refocus their messaging on body appreciation. Young people can learn to appreciate their own bodies most especially for all the experiences their bodies allow them to enjoy. It is through our bodies we experience life. Dr. Skinner emphasizes the role adults play in shaping their children's body image and ultimately how taking care of our bodies allows our bodies to bountifully take care of us-- mentally, physically, emotionally and intellectually. https://findingnoble.com/
