In this lesson: 2 videos + 6 PDF Journals
Feelings and Body Image / Coping with Emotions using Body Image:
Coping through body image, sometimes what I call body bashing, is a learned behavior that makes us feel safe, gives us a way to feel a sense of control over our emotions, has become a sense of identity, keeps certain fears at bay, and much much more. Like a Cozy pair of sweatpants, a scapegoat...body bashing will never give you the true versions of these things. Body manipulation and fixation will only create a false and fleeting sense of what's on the bottom half of the iceberg.
So let's start digging and replacing!
Lesson 3
Body Image Exposures
In this lesson: 1 video + 1 PDF Journal
One of my most favorite things - Body Image Exposure work!! People avoid behaviors and experiences that trigger negative BI. In the long run, this kind of avoidance actually reinforces or increases negative BI. Gradual exposure to these feared stimuli allows clients to increase tolerance of their bodies and improve BI over time.
