A guide to understanding body images issues and self love will be conducted by Roshini Kumar, a body positivity activist who's conducted multiple workshops on the same and Unnati Bhardwaj who is a queer affirmative therapist. Together they will break down body image issues and the concept of self love to give a better understanding of all concepts and topics involved with the same.

Mental health is an extremely important topic that has very less awareness in our society. With a mental health professional on board I want people to understand the implications of frequently ignored causes of mental health issues like toxic cycles of beauty standards, them adding and increasing our insecurities etc. which Unnati will be shedding light on and helping you get a better understanding on it, while answering all your questions!

Topics discussed here will be:

• History and usage of beauty standards to understand their reasons for creation and usage
• Understanding body image
• Insecurities and their origin and development
• Conditioning and its impacts
• Detailed study on body positivity, body neutrality, the concept of self love, body objectification, inclusivity
• Ways everyone can get onto the journey or strengthen their journey onto self love and acceptance.
• Interactive talks and exercises
• Sharing circle to help open ourselves

This workshop will be a safe space to express, interact and ask any and every question that is related to the subject to both Roshini & Unnati. We encourage sharing stories, journeys and being as open as possible. This is a space for all people or every age, gender, sexuality, and no discriminations of any sort will be tolerated. We want this to be a positive workshop for all of us to learn and grow from understanding important concepts, facts and also our stories to inspire each other.

All you need for this workshop is:

• An open mind to learn and understand concepts and have fun!
• A note book/laptop/tablet if you want to take down notes!

Please note: This is NOT a therapy service and it is not a one of one session to discuss an individual's mental health.

We look forward to meeting you all very soon!
