Practice 04: Radical Body Love
from Sustenance Hosted by Bridget Holtom
In societal contexts that can dissociate us from our bodies, and try to sell us what it means to be beautiful, it is radical to show ourselves, our bodies and our friends, lovers and communities attention, care and love. And when the media narrows the definition of beauty to exclude so many bodies – in racist, ageist, sexist ways – practicing and sharing radical body-love is an act of resistance. This practice can be done after a shower or bath or just before bed. If you are in the grips of self-loathing or hatred about your body, doing one thing to come into relationship in a caring way can be the start of a journey of recovery to connect with pleasure and self-love. Orient to enjoyment.
