Loving your body means to take care of it, to trust your body and to respect it for all it does for you. The Love Your Body campaign works to celebrate that. For more information, visit the campaigns official website!
The world has created expectations based on our looks, creating a dynamic that places the value of appearance over all else. We are provided with a template of body standards that is limited and non-inclusive; this leaves anyone who does not fit this template feeling inadequate. Love Your Body week challenges the message that our value can be measure through the ability to meet any standard of beauty. Loving yourself is not the reality for all or may be intermittent, but we work towards everyone being able to accept their physical body, abilities, and identities.
Stay tuned for our Fall 2023 calendar!
