In this episode of Becoming Anchored, co-host and licensed therapist Laura Deneen is joined by co-host and licensed therapist Lauren Jackson.
Together they share about the body image spectrum and provide helpful insights on how to use it.
Key Takeaways:
What Is The Body Image Spectrum?: It is a spectrum with different points to help you name where you are at with your relationship with your body. An example of a body image spectrum includes: body disgust, body hatred, body tolerance, body neutrality, and body acceptance/liberation. You may utilize language on the spectrum that resonates the most for you.
Why Is It Helpful?: Together we discuss how to cultivate self-awareness around your current relationship with your body and you can use the spectrum to explore the behaviors that are associated with each point on the spectrum. It can also help you break down goals into specific and attainable measures. It is also non-linear, meaning that if you reach a certain point on the spectrum, it does not mean you cannot move forwards or backwards and learn from these experiences.
The Body Image “Iceberg”: Alongside the body image spectrum, you can use the body image iceberg. This helps provide a deeper understanding into what is happening “underneath the surface” of your body image. It helps us attune to our bodies and explore any underlying stressors or unmet needs.
This episode provides a more in depth look onto body image using the spectrum and gives you hopeful tools to help you navigate the challenges of body image regardless of where you are on the spectrum.
Homework: Here’s a link to our free masterclass, “What Is Body Image,” where we have a workbook that you can explore your own body image using our body image spectrum. Sign up for the class here!
Affirmation: “I can choose to be flexible with my mindset around my body image.”
