#Repost @chr1styharrison (@get_repost)・・・The modern guise of diet culture—aka The Wellness Diet—ties health to morality and worthiness, but I’m here to tell you that’s bullshit. You don’t owe it to ANYONE to pursue health. Health is NOT a moral obligation. Health doesn’t determine your value as a human being. You don’t have to perform health to be deserving of justice, respect, and fair treatment. ——————————————–Health also isn’t a matter of personal choice the way diet culture makes it out to be. SO many things go into our health that are beyond our control, like genetics, race, socioeconomic status, access to high-quality and non-stigmatizing healthcare, our experiences of childhood trauma, and even how stressed-out our moms were when we were in the womb. Food is NOT the be-all-end-all of health. Your access to health services and your experiences of discrimination matter a whole lot more than what you buy at the grocery store. (For some of the science behind that, check out the paper “Perceived Weight Discrimination and 10-Year Risk of Allostatic Load.”) ——————————————–Whether or not you pursue health, and what that means to you, is your business—not diet culture’s. Regardless of your health status, it doesn’t mean *anything* about your value or worth as a person. ——————————————–If you want to hear more about HAES, intuitive eating, and body liberation, click the link in my bio to subscribe to Food Psych today!——————————————–And if you’re ready for a deeper dive into all things anti-diet, come check out my intuitive eating online course at christyharrison.com/course ❤️——————————————–#haes #intuitiveeating #antidiet #riotsnotdiets #effyourbeautystandards #losehatenotweight #lifebeyonddieting #thelifethief #bodyposi #bodypositive #bopo #foodpsychpod #foodpsych #feminism #healthateverysizehttps://www.instagram.com/p/Bq8R9_Zl33IYhaIjvqWlL3y1G2w7m1VUMDIR-s0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=21ag1xfakni9 -- source link
