Find Freedom In Your Body With ACT

with Diana Hill

We are swimming upstream when it comes to positive body image. Hounded with unattainable standards about what constitutes an acceptable body, many of us can get stuck in avoiding things we care about--like intimacy, movement, or social engagements. Feeling bad about your body prevents you from pursuing the life you want. And at the same time, you might blame yourself for being stuck. In this workshop, Dr. Diana Hill will offer a fresh perspective on body image. What if you didn’t have to “like” your body to start living in it? What if you could pursue meaningful activities in the body you have, not the body you wish you have? Drawing on strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT), Dr. Hill will help you choose courage over avoidance, compassion over criticism, and willingness to live in your body without battling it. Ultimately, you will learn how to practice radical body acceptance and committed action toward body acceptance. Due to differences in time zones, we understand that not everyone will be able to join the session live. But that doesn’t mean you need to miss out. You can still purchase the workshop and the recordings will be sent to you after the session.

Students will...

  • Explore what is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and why it is so helpful for body image

  • Understand the difference between acceptance and “liking” when it comes to your body

  • Explore how to get more present in your body with “one-eye-in” and “one-eye-out”

  • Learn why being thin is not a value and what your true values are

  • Discover what keeps you stuck in a negative body image roundabout

  • Gain cognitive defusion skills to unhook from body image rules and should

  • Cultivate a more compassionate perspective on your body

  • Learn behavioral science strategies to take values-based action

This learning experience includes:

  • 2 hours of live group session with Diana including Q&A

  • PDFs will be offered during the course

  • Access to a private Group to connect with other participants and continue the conversation

  • A recording of the workshop which you can access up to 3 months after the event
