The Body Is Not an Apology is a gift, a blessing, a prayer, a reminder, a sacred text. This book cracked me open in ways that I’m so grateful for. I know it will do the same for you.

The Body Is Not an Apology is essential reading for those of us who crave understanding and those who are already on the path to learning how beautiful and complex our bodies are.

This is my second Mother’s Day since my 2nd child was born.
.
My 2nd Mother’s day since becoming a mother of a living child again. For the three before that I spent them as a mother whose only child had passed onto the other side. I didn’t celebrate those years; this day was very, very painful. And it will forever be bittersweet for me.
.
Therefore, I’m in particular thinking of all the bereaved mothers today. Along with anyone else who feels like this holiday forgets them and pushes them to the side in their grief.
.
I’m also thinking of all those who are in the process of giving themselves the parenting that they never had as a child. Those who are reparenting their inner child. This day is for you too.

❤️🌷🌷❤️

dieting is an act of colonization. it is White Supremacy in action. Studies show when Western white media arrives in a nation body dissatisfaction and dieting arrive as well. Want to take ONE POWERFUL ANTI- RACIST ACTION TODAY, give up dieting. it is giving up an investment in a white supremacist ideal about bodies. #Radicalselflovelessons #Thebodyisnotanapology intersectionality #bopo #RadicalSelfLove
