This Body Never Meant to Cause Harm
Copyright :
Body forgiveness helps our clients shift from criticism and hatred, toward internal forgiveness, self-compassion and a return to embodied living. Through a process of grieving and mourning, self-compassion and self-understanding, clients come to uphold body neutrality over positivity, along with honoring and allowing for the suffering that may continue to be felt living in a body that one and/or the world wishes were different.
