We Want More for You than a Healthy ‘Body Image’
Our upcoming camping immersion, Taking Our Bodies Back, is not about helping you form a ‘healthy body image.’ The very concept of ‘body image’ is part of the problem, and improving yours is not our intent. Doing so only maintains and keeps us trapped in dominant culture’s standards and expectations rather than setting us free of them.
Instead, we endeavor to break the paradigm of the culture's demand of us that we see our bodies from the outside in.
We will offer you space and some guidance to begin to orient to your body from the inside out, attuning to your body's unique shape and expression as it creates, births, imagines, and feels.
We will invite you to recognize that your body is nature, as much as the aspen grove, the pine trees, and the land that we stand on.
And, we will create opportunities to take one another and ourselves in with the same awe, reverence, and regard as we would a moon rise, a wave crashing to shore, or a ladybug carefully making its way across a leaf.
Join us to help create and immerse yourself in a culture that wants more for you than a healthy ‘body image’.
