Ep 5: Raising Body Positive Children Starts with Us


Listen Later

Marilyn takes us through this episode highlighting how we influence the little ears in our home by how we speak about ourselves. She reminds us about the little things we say about ourselves that are negative and that can impact how their children begin to view their bodies, worth, and relationship with food. She gives examples of forms we express ourselves and how we are constantly influencing our children. She shares an Acronym MEMAS she created that helps listeners use as a guide to form healthy self-love and positivity habits in their home. This eye opening and raw episode was inspired by a series of Instagram stories she did last year where hundreds of viewers expressed positive feedback and the need to hear this message.

M: Model Healthy Behavior
E: Eat and have fun
M: Media Images should be diverse
A: All Bodies are Good Bodies
S: Set Boundaries

In this Episode she references Kacie Barnes a Registered Dietician and a recent Instagram post @mamaknows_nutrition
about not giving all the power to dessert.
