Stretch and Learn with Just Move Albany

Just Move AlbanyAlbany, WA
Monday, Mar 2 from 8 am to 12 pm AWST
Overview

Make meaning this morning with a light breakfast paired with a weight-neutral, lived experience exploration of eating disorders and movement

We live in a world saturated with diet culture, body shame, morality around food, and constant pressure to meet unrealistic standards. With so many mixed messages, it can be hard to recognise what a healthy relationship with food even looks like, especially when disordered patterns are often normalised and celebrated.

Join us as we talk about all things body neutrality, dissect diet culture, and learn how to move our bodies with care and compassion, rather than out of obligation.


WHAT: A body-neutral, informative, shame-free and lived experience-grounded breakfast, short Lived Experience grassroots documentary, presentation by Rachael Burns, and guided gentle yoga led by Brooke Pearson.

WHEN: Monday 2nd March, 8:00am - 11:00pm

WHERE: Just Move Studio, 132 Albany Hwy, Albany WA 6330


ABOUT THE EVENT

YOU CAN EXPECT:
Light breakfast/ brunch, screening of 'Forget What You Think You Know', a mini interactive workshop on the history of diet culture and navigating our current weight-obsessed society, and a gentle, self-compassion focused yoga session led by Brooke Pearson

WHO IS IT FOR?

This session is suitable for anyone looking to support themselves or others, to challenge diet culture, or to build a more inclusive, weight-neutral approach to health and wellbeing.

NOTE - We will share food in a neutral, celebratory way, modelling what it means to eat without guilt or fear. We ask that if you attend, you respect the space and agree to refrain from commenting on your own and others' food choices.
