In this episode of Getting Healthy Without Rules, we dive into the impacts of diet culture on mental health, parenting, and body image. Expert guest Dr. Emily Gordon shares how diet culture promotes disordered eating and unrealistic beauty standards. We discuss ways parents can protect kids from these harmful messages and foster positive body image instead. Tune in to learn tangible tips on: * Fostering body neutrality and self-acceptance in your home * Teaching kids to think critically about media and advertisements * Setting boundaries around unsolicited comments about food and appearance * Finding community to reinforce positive messaging This episode is power-packed with a thoughtful conversation that gives all of us things to think about and is a must to hear. Everyone deserves to feel good in their own skin! ***Content Warning*** As I have shared in previous episodes, we will use the words "fat" or "larger-bodied." For example, you can be in a fat body and accept your body. We use these words as simple descriptors without judgment. Fat is simply another adjective, like thin, and it's up to us to remove the stigma and the negative connotation that society and diet culture have created. Be sure to stay until the end for this week's healthy practice.
