Showing results for "Shame" in Fitness, Diet & Nutrition

In Live Nourished, Shana Spence starts by exposing diet culture for what it is: a patriarchal, capitalist mindset that is engrained in countless aspects of our society, and that keeps us from living healthily and joyfully. It’s a systemic belief that equates fitness, health, and thinness with worth and assigns food a moral value. And it’s a belief that pervades our society.

In The Roots of Pelvic Floor Yoga, author, seasoned nurse, and yoga instructor, Heather Dolson, will take you on a transformative journey exploring the intricate history of body shaming in women as Dolson weaves a narrative that transcends time and societal norms. This isn't just a book; it's a manifesto for reclaiming your body and embracing a newfound sense of self.

Today's culture has distorted the way women view our bodies. We are hypercritical, obsessed with weight loss, and distracted by the countless advertisements we see to eat, exercise, and dress differently.

Rather, God longs for you to embrace your body, eat with freedom, and live with a deep sense of confidence that you are loved exactly as you are.

This book is written by a physical therapist, specifically for people who want to begin exercising, and for those who have started and quit, as well as for those realizing the negative effects of age on their activity levels.
