Heal your Body by Healing your Heart
It’s time for a Body Love Revolution.
From the time I was 11 years old, chestier than my peers, and the tallest girl in my 5th grade class, my body and I have been at odds. I felt a lot of pressure to look a certain way, to be attractive, to be something more.
Adding to my critical self-judgment and confusion was shame around sexuality, ideas around women being the "weaker" sex whose main task was to have babies. and a bucket-load of warped conditioning around people-pleasing and being "nice."
Own Your Own Beauty: 3 Suggestions to Loving the Body You’ve Got
It is not easy to love the body you’ve got. Ask any person about their body, they will point out something that isn’t quite right. Most people struggle with their body image and want to change at least one aspect of their physical self. Many can present a pretty long list of problem areas, and would like a complete overhaul.
Negative body image is a serious problem, affecting individuals in all areas of life.

I make my home in the Driftless Area of Wisconsin. I like to write. I love deep conversations and a good laugh. Favorite leisure activities includes a body of water, a warm sun and some good reading (usually an astrology book or some deep metaphysical text).
I have a BA in Criminology and a MS in Counseling Psychology. I am licensed in Wisconsin as a Professional Counselor (LPC) and am certified in Pastoral Counseling and Holistic Psychotherapy. I am also a Reiki Master and on-going student of alternative and vibrational healing practices.
