Embracing Health at Every Size: Jodie Gale on the Harm of Diet Culture

Health at every size is the new peace movement. Refuse to fight in an unjust war and join the new peace movement.
Ever wondered if there's a healthier way to think about weight and body image? In this episode of 'Soul Sessions with Jodie Gale', Jodie, a seasoned psychotherapist and mind-body eating coach, dives into the Health at Every Size (HAES) movement. She introduces listeners to the HAES Manifesto by Lindo Bacon, challenging the common misconceptions about weight and health. Jodie tackles the false beliefs that being overweight or obese means a shorter lifespan compared to leaner individuals.
Instead, she emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance and body neutrality. Diet culture takes a heavy toll on both mental and physical health, and Jodie sheds light on how it perpetuates weight stigma and contributes to eating disorders. She also critiques the use of BMI as a flawed measure that often leads to harmful stereotypes. For those ready to break free from the chains of diet culture, Jodie offers practical steps to embrace HAES principles.
These include accepting your body size and making food choices that nourish both body and soul. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that might just change how you view health and happiness.
