What is Body Respect Week?
Body Respect Week is January 25-29, 2021 and will bring the Tulane community comprehensive, queer-inclusive, culturally specific, body-positive health events. The language around our bodies and health can be confusing and oftentimes misleading. The goal for this week is to help Tulane students shift their thinking from having to love their body towards respecting their body. Body respect is all about coming back to our default states, without the pressure of shame or negativity. It takes an unlearning of what society has tried to tell us matters about our bodies and becoming at peace with the fact that your body is just one small piece of who you are. We hope that students understand that respect carries reciprocal energy. Your body will honor you when you honor it.
Who is Body Respect Week for?
Body Respect Week is for all bodies. Body Respect Week is an invitation to be a part of conversations about bodies, one that nourishes and celebrates who we are and who we can become, including every way we show up in the world. We hope that Body Respect Week helps you to think about how has your body—just as it is—helped you survive in this world? What are some ways your body shows up just for you? What can you do to take better care of your body? What would be possible if you decided your body wasn’t the problem? Body Respect Week is an invitation to reclaim the body respect that is your birthright.
