An affirmation to use with yourself and your kids.

An affirmation to use with yourself and your kids. There is so much content around at the moment telling us what to do with our body right now - how we should move it, what we should feed it. Inspiration is fantastic - and I’m all for the free workouts and recipes being offered if they help. But ultimately, don’t lose sight of the fact that you know your body best. You know how to comfort yourself. Need to move? Need to rest? Need to eat? There is no right or wrong way to cope right now, and there isn’t one single coping strategy that will work the same for everyone. ⭐️
It might feel like you need to gain control in other areas while you struggle with a lack of control over everything else - that’s a coping tool too. But know that your body isn’t an external force you need to control, to train into submission or tame. The same goes for kids - falling into battles at mealtimes or over snacks, or trying to force them to exercise if they don’t want to at the moment might bring a whole load of body image issues up at a time we need to comfort ourselves and each other most. ❤️
Yesterday I sent out the first Body Happy Kids email zine which will go out weekly, for FREE, to anyone who subscribes, who might find it useful. It includes downloadable resources, activities to do with kids at home to boost body image, confidence and wellbeing, links to some of the best joyful, body happy events happening online, a mini article and signposts to further places of support. It’ll go out as long as it’s needed during this pandemic period, and you can sign up via the link in my bio. 💕

So much chat about health at the moment, and it’

So much chat about health at the moment, and it’s a good time to remember that you can’t tell a huge amount about someone’s health from the way they look - but also that REGARDLESS of health, ability, body shape, gender, skin colour, age... all humans deserve the SAME level of respect, dignity, kindness, care and support. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📢 While I’m here, I’ll let you know about some useful FREE resources to help counteract body image issues during COVID-19. There’s a new blog post on my blog, new Body Happy Kids printables on the #FreeFromDiets website and a new email zine you can subscribe to there too which is packed with resources. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re also working to get out a quick emergency series of @bodyconspodcast themed around positivity and surviving diet culture during these unsettled times. PSA over and out!

Small businesses need our help more than ever so I

Small businesses need our help more than ever so I’m dedicating this post as a love letter to the small biz brigade of Insta (I’ll do a similar one for charities too soon!). Here’s what we’re gonna do: tag a small biz you love in the comments and then go find another biz someone else has tagged and give them a follow. Maybe even check out their stuff and buy something if you have the means (or bookmark it for a later date when you might have the 💰). Times are tough out there for anyone not selling loo roll so this could be a fun way to support the small biz owners we love while finding new lovely things we might not know about. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ll start. This tee is made by one of my favourites @wunderkind_and_wild. I bought it specially for an interview I did on Sky News last year as part of a segment on mental health awareness week, as a % of the sale from every piece of clothing is donated to various mental health charities. This is the coral tee saying FINE in leopard print and I wear it often. I also want to shout out @fempowermentbox who do gorgeous boxes of products from women-led businesses - I’ve had the Autumn and Spring boxes and LOVED them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, your turn - tag your fave small biz account here and let us know who we should all be following 🥰 #smallbusinesslove

Things are unsettled and scary and stressful. So I

Things are unsettled and scary and stressful. So I’m responding in the only way I know how by making impulsive hair choices and dancing round my kitchen. Join me? We can celebrate getting through the week with a live communal virtual kitchen disco together.
⚡️
3pm, this Friday. Might even help knacker the kids out for an early Friday bedtime 😬🙏😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can request to join the video while it’s live and have your time to shine too. I’ll share more details in Stories. GET YOUR SONG REQUESTS IN NOW! 👇👇👇 #coronaviruskitchendisco ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Kids and body image is one of the most common them

Kids and body image is one of the most common themes in my DMs. Mums who are worried after receiving a letter from school after *that* child measurement programme, teachers asking how to navigate conversations with kids in their class who are upset after another child has called them “fat”, big sisters worrying about little sisters... and most recently parents who are navigating their own body image issues who are now concerned about how they’ll avoid their children picking up on things now they’re with them 24/7 during these uncertain times. ⭐️
1000 words is nowhere near enough to cover this huge issue but I tried to at least scratch the surface in this piece I wrote for @theunedit. Swipe for highlights and click on the link in my bio to read the full article. ⭐️ I’m also now offering a FREE weekly resource for parents during this unsettled time with a weekly Body Happy Kids email zine. The link to subscribe is in my bio. 💖
