Health At Every Size®, and Intuitive Eating?
Do you struggle with accepting your body in the size you are now?
Do you want to reject diet culture and feel more at ease around food?
Are you interested in the concept of body liberation to feel more free and at peace in your body?
Do you feel stuck without direction when it comes to knowing
how to put these ideas into practice?
The Body Liberation Group can help!
Using concepts from Health At Every Size®, Intuitive Eating, and Body Liberation, this group provides a safe and intimate community space to support you in having a relationship with your body and food that brings you the peace and freedom you want.
Each week will include a teaching component, reflection questions and discussion, and homework to help you integrate the concepts into your daily life.
Katie McCrindle (she/they)
Katie McCrindle, M.S.W. is a Body Liberation Counsellor, Registered Social Worker and Fat Activist who lives and works in Hamilton, Ontario. She identifies as fat as a way of reclaiming the word and situating herself in a political identity. They believe that every body is inherently worthy, and those whose bodies are considered “larger” deserve to proudly take up space in this society which is both overtly and insidiously anti-fat.
Katie is passionate about body/fat liberation and about creating community, both online and off, and believes that the body holds wisdom if you can figure out how to listen. Katie loves weird dancing, being in nature, and cuddling with their cat, Luna.
