22.01.2022 'A new concept, ‘body neutrality’ has made its way into the mainstream to provide a more realistic balance between body-hatred and body-love. The aim of body neutrality is not to necessarily love how you look all the time, but to respect your body enough so that you can take care of it, even when you’re having a bad body image day.' To find out tips for body neutrality in an appearence obsessed world, click the link below! https://bodymatters.com.au/tips-for-body-neutrality-in-an-/

15.01.2022 BodyMatters director, Sarah McMahon was recently interviewed on the concern of body image and the factors that contribute to this! Body image is consistently one of the biggest areas of concern for young Australians, and the Mission Australia study reveals this year after year. There are so many factors contributing to it, and this could be summarised as the promotion of the thin ideal which penetrates all aspects of Western culture. Unfortunately, even in social media, yo...ung people often doctor their appearance on readily available Apps to look better- constructing and curating a false reality. This behaviour is hazardous because in doing so, young people usually feel good about the images they post; however, the behaviour itself serves to reinforce the said beauty ideal, ultimately making them feel worse.

14.01.2022 We are reaching out for volunteers who consider themselves recovered to share their stories. We understand that every journey is unique and that people relate to their eating disorder in different ways following recovery. Therefore, we are hoping to gain insights from a wide variety of speakers. All volunteers will firstly be required to undertake an interview, to ensure goodness of fit for this forum. Volunteers would be asked to speak in a zoom meeting regarding others on their own recovery journey, which may also include parents, partners and health professionals who are also interested to understand more about eating disorders and recovery. If you are interested in speaking at one of our recovery talks, please email [email protected].

10.01.2022 "The little girl inside me believed that being skinny would bring me all the things that I dreamed of: a handsome husband, a career, travel, friends," she explained. "But what is ironic is that when I went on the diet that led me to an eating disorder, I nearly lost all those things because I had actually achieved all those things without trying to shrink my body." https://www.abc.net.au//diet-exercise-fitness-wo/12747248

Phoebe is a fully qualified Naturopath and was first diagnosed with a restrictive eating disorder at the end of 2015 when her eating disorder was at its worse. Phoebes' strong passion and focus on her career in Naturopathy allowed her to understa...nd the importance of her health and ways that she is able to use this to help others going through similar circumstances. Phoebe now has her own business to help people in all kinds of holistic ways to be healthier. She is continuously promoting self-love and body positivity and willing to promote that full recovery is possible and evidence-based treatment is the best starting place for recovery.
