Body image, self compassion and navigating diet culture - with Chrissy Kapartis Rewired - Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast

    • Geestelijke gezondheid

Chrissy is an incredible recovery coach, currently training to be a counsellor, and has experience working at a clinic as both an eating disorder recovery coach and mentor. She has a passion for ED recovery, mental health, body-image and self-compassion since she started her own recovery journey seven years ago. At the start of Chrissy’s journey, she was in treatment for an eating disorder, describing these as one of her symptoms, but in fact was really in recovery for all areas of her life. Since then she has also delivered workshops on body-image and the history of diet-culture, the science behind why diet culture tells us lies and why fatphobia and body ideals are just plain wrong. Her core message is that no one deserves to feel that they are inherently unlovable for whatever reason; their body, their soul, their voice or anything. She speaks about the fact that sadly there is much trauma that we, individually and societally, are hurting from and self-hatred is a huge product of that. Her biggest hope is to help others realise that they are worthy of love and a good life, as she  was helped to discover on her own journey. She has a particular interest in the relationship between self-image and body-image, how the two exist in parallel and impact each-other.


Topics covered:
Chrissy’s own recovery journey and how she became interested in body imageHistory and origins of diet culture, and how racial, patriarchal, healthcare and all sorts of systems play a part.Our bodies having their own ‘genetic set range’ and how respecting this impacts living a fulfilling life Detaching her own sense of ‘lovability’ from body aestheticsConnection between body image and traumaNavigating diet culture and body expectations we are surrounded by  Where to start in developing a better relationship with our body and self as a whole
