Weight Discrimination

This lecture proposes we distance ourselves from focusing on the “goods” and the “bads” associated with weight related issues, directing our attention, instead, to those of self-respect, body compassion and size acceptance, as we learn how to honor the diversity in each and every person and how to make peace with food.
