Reclaiming Body Image: From Criticism to Celebration, an embodiment session

Join us to creatively inhabit your body, shift conditioned perspectives on body image, and celebrate yourself.

Through playful and exploratory Somatic-Expressive and creative practices, you will have the opportunity to clarify the profound impact of your perceptions of your body on your sense of self and well-being, while engaging your body with deep sensory awareness and compassion.

Shed self-criticism and self-doubt, and nurture an attitude of self-acceptance, deep connection, and unconditional love; cultivating an intimate relationship with the parts of your body that you've learned to reject, resent, or even hate.

This group session if a gentle and bold step towards healing your relationship with your body, image, and Self. It will support you to cultivate greater awareness of positive feelings that are already available within you, but may be clouded by conditioning, challenging circumstances (such as illness, debilitations, pregnancy, postpartum, aging, and others) and expectations.

I hope to see you there!
What to bring:

• An open heart, curious mind, and willing body.

About Ana Liz Ceregatti, your facilitator:

Ana Liz is a registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator and Expressive Arts Practitioner, who specializes in facilitating healing from trauma through the body and creative expression.

She is proud of being part of the Latina diaspora in LA, and passionate about empowering a refreshed feminine notion in a patriarchal culture driven by oppressive gender norms, greed, and competition. She offers a body-based, process-oriented, artistic, and generative approach to healing and personal growth, allowing clients to explore inner and outer life from rigidity and conditioning to conscious movement, through embodied creativity. Both in her private practice and group sessions, she encourages clients to expand their understanding, exchange ideas, and learn how to take embodied action toward a fuller and more meaningful life - personally, interpersonally, politically, and ecologically.
