{body image} You are worthy of rest.
You are worthy of rest. Up until a couple of years ago, I was forever getting sick, mostly colds and respiratory stuff. Once I got it, I’d be miserable for weeks, and if a cough settled in, well, it was staying for at least a month. So I was sick basically all the time. I…

{live} Take Two: Decolonizing Wellness with Dalia Kinsey, February 25
You know how sometimes things just don’t work out? Are a disaster from end to end? Well, that was my first try at a chat with author Dalia Kinsey. First, our FB live didn’t want to start. Then I couldn’t add Dalia to the chat. Then the audio and video were off sync so badly…
“We do not have to turn the other cheek.”
Fat people, we do not have to acquiesce to our culture’s normalization of hierarchy. We do not have to turn the other cheek. We can demand fairness.

7 Health at Every Size Resources for Sleep Apnea
One in 15 Americans has sleep apnea, but we don’t talk about it. It’s practically a taboo subject, possibly because apnea is correlated with fatness (though there’s no proven causation). One of the consequences of us not talking about it is that 80% of people with sleep apnea are undiagnosed. That’s a lot of people whose health and lives are in danger…

I wish I could just talk about loving your body.
I wish I could just talk about loving your body. I really do, y’all. I would be perfectly content to post pretty photos and talk about why you should paint your stretch marks with glitter.
