Body Liberation, Prioritizing Mental Health & Healing Trauma with Jes Baker
Description
Jes Baker is a positive, progressive, and magnificently irreverent force to be reckoned with who is internationally known for preaching the importance of body liberation, self-love, mental health, strong coffee, and even stronger language.
We Talk About:
- Somatic healing for trauma
- How we become disconnected from our bodies
- Feeling more embodied outside of traditional exercise
- Reclaiming movement outside of trauma and diet culture
- Prioritizing mental health (and how that supports our overall health)
- Body liberation
- Letting go - why diet culture wants us to fear it and why it gives us freedom
- Integrating body liberation into your lived experience
- Training your nervous system to heal
- Inheriting body image struggles from our families
- Forgiveness
- Vulnerability
- Being a better ally
Quotable:
the second I stopped trying to “LOVE” my body, the less I hated it
