What’s Right With This Picture?

Lunch at a restaurant with a friend, live and in person. A restaurant with indoor seating, no masks required for the vaccinated. OMG, After the long year of home-cooking (not much variety there), take-out (fun from time to time, not all the time), and lusting in front of Food Network re-runs, the trip to the restaurant was more than a welcome event. It was Nirvana. I couldn't help but overhear the conversation of the couple behind us. "They don't have anything I want," the woman moaned. "I thought you liked salmon," her friend replied. "Not grilled like that, it'll be all dry," the woman said. "Maybe you can ask them to poach it," her friend suggested. "Fat chance," the woman said. "And what's with the waiter?" she continued, "we've been here at least 15 minutes, and haven't seen hide ...

Anxiety After Lockdown – 8 Ways To Manage Body Image

Tracy Tylka, The Ohio State University Being able to socialize again may bring enthusiasm and a sense of normalcy – but it may also increase anxiety over how your body might have changed. I am a psychologist who has studied body image for over 20 years, and I’ve seen how the COVID-19 pandemic could affect health and well-being in numerous ways, including body image. Gyms were closed. Self-care rituals may have fallen by the wayside as stress and hardships like homeschooling and strained finances piled up. The pandemic also took away a major way people cope: Social support through physical contact. Pandemic stress has led many people to turn to other coping mechanisms, with some harmful to both physical and mental health. In one study of 5,469 adults in Australia, 35% reported increased ...

Around The World Weight Stigma Is A Burden – And Has Negative Consequences Everywhere

Lazy. Unmotivated. No self-discipline. No willpower. These are just a few of the widespread stereotypes ingrained in American society about people who have a higher body weight or larger body size. Known as weight stigma, these attitudes result in many Americans being blamed, teased, bullied, mistreated and discriminated against. There is nowhere to hide from societal weight stigma. Decades of research confirm the presence of weight stigma in workplaces, schools, health care settings, public accommodations and the mass media, as well as in close interpersonal relationships with friends and families. It’s everywhere. I’m a psychologist and researcher at the Rudd Center for Food Policy & Obesity at the University of Connecticut. For 20 years my team has studied weight stigma. We’ve ex...

5 Necessities For Leaders To Get Others To Follow!

To Survive And Thrive, You Need To Be Flexible

We Can Choose Our Attitude How would you describe your life right now? Are you surviving from day-to-day or thriving? I don't intend to underscore your troubles but help you gain an insight into your current conditions. It takes courage to take an introspective look into ourselves, particularly when we don't like what we see. Most people never take this journey because highlighting their shortfalls threatens their self-esteem. The problem is that we stay stuck and stagnant, without growing and advancing. I'm certain if you're reading this article, you're not that person. You're not the person to rest on your laurels because something inside of you identifies with growth and expansion.
