Most of us have had our body stories written for us - by the culture, family lore, the diet and beauty industries, dominant culture. So much so, that we can’t always be certain where the truth of our lives and all that have been put upon us meet. Reclaiming the entirety of the whole story reintroduces you to you in your entirety - not only the bits and pieces you have run through with regret over and over again. Sometimes a reminder that there is something to heal is necessary. And when we can do that we are less inclined to collude with the gaslighting of lived experience that is so prevalent in a weight obsessed culture.
When we hold a story that was never ours to begin with we suffer and we make decisions that aren’t us. We can become more object in the story and less of the main character.
Less of you. Â
We are after more of you.
Restorying is an act of reclamation. It helps to delineate what freedom from the tyrannies of body hierarchies and disordered eating could feel like for you.
Your story is yours. Let’s reclaim it.
These systems and narratives aim to make you the antagonist to your body. In reality, that is twisted. Let us remind you why.
Here’s how this intensive will work:
We will meet twice.Â
Our first meeting will be a 90 minute intensive. Â
After you register you will receive a set of prompts to explore before our first session.
Our 90 minutes together will be a dive into the parts of your story that need to be told, heard, reflected, decoded and brought into the light. We will use methods that you are drawn to, whether that is writing, speaking, art mediums or a combination of all of them. We will discuss places of strife and we also consider the wisdom in your coping - how you survived, got through and made due.We will find places that feel stuck in an old story or are warped by criticism or shame and we will breathe new life into old narratives.
You will leave our first session with more to think about and explore, with a fresh and deepening perspective on your own story and path forward. Â
We will meet a second time for 45 minutes to synthesize what has been changing and evolving for you. I can help you envision next steps.
Your story, your body and your life deserve this attention and care.
