The #1 way to feel good in and about your body is to spend time with other people who feel good in and about their bodies!

We learn from watching and listening to others.  

Think about it.  Where did you get the shame you carry/ carried abut your body?  Were you born feeling shame?  Probably not.  You learned shame from culture, family and peers.

When I arrived @hampshirecollege (a very alternative Liberal Arts College) in the early 90’s, it was the first time I had friends that were not on diets.  Most of my friends in high school had eating disorders.  All the magazines I read talked about diets. My mom taught me to be on a diet so early I don’t even remember when.  (I honor that she was doing the best she could and she herself was taught to always be on a diet, and was surrounded by other women always on diets.)

It was a revelation and a revolution when I learned I didn’t have to live on a diet.  I saw other women loving their bodies.  I also saw women openly expressing love for each other’s bodies.  This was the beginning of my healing from body shame.

I learned to stop having shame about my yoni, when I started to attend births and hanging around midwives and doulas who revered the power of yonis.  I became immersed in the magic of yonis. I found friends who wanted to talk about yonis. (Now I can’t stop talking about yonis!)

I started to go to hot springs where people bathe n@ked.  I saw a lot of bare bodies.  I saw people being comfortable in their bodies.  Again, I witnessed the absence of shame, and bathed in the vibration of liberation.

...

Healing from the toxic messages we have been marinating in all of our lives happens one breath at a time.  

All of my offerings are designed for people at all stages of the journey to joyful embodiment.

A multitude of photograms, lined up on our living room sofas, before heading off to Amherst, MA, for an exhibition at the Hampshire College Art Gallery. We'll be hanging the work on Monday, Feb. 4th, where it will stay put until April 7th. My heartfelt thanks to Kane Stewart for making this exhibition possible. I'm so honored + excited to see the fruits of my camera-less labors on this beautiful gallery's walls. Hope you can stop by + see them too! •• •• •• #hampshirecollege #hampshirecollegeartgallery #patriciabender #cameralessphotography #photograms #lenslessphotography #clichéverre https://www.instagram.com/p/BtTeFgIgJ-v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1tdiyyu0yup6m

Salumi: Italian for "cured meat". Chef John recollects the Salumi Pizzette as one of the most impressively balanced dishes he's encountered. Chef recounted a journey with this dish that began when he first set eyes on it in Miami. The Salumi proves to be a tremendous addition to our menu, selling out quickly with great praise. With orange oil complementing burrata cheese, thinky sliced coppa and basil notes to tie it all together, it's no wonder The Salumi is quickly drawing a following 🍕 . . . . #thesalumi #tunnelbar #northampton #Massachusetts #foodstagram #pizzette #salumipizzette #coppa #italian #flatbread #pizza #westernma #valleyeats #northamptonfood #umass #smithcollege #amherstcollege #hampshirecollege #mountholyoke #pioneervalley #newengland #newenglandfood #mustseenewengland (at Tunnel Bar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdeDFw0vKuR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Check out our review of The Unmaking of a College. This film delves into the 2019 crisis at Hampshire College when students led a 75-day sit-in at the president's office to thwart her attempt to give up the independence of one of the most experimenting colleges in the USA. #movie #film #cinema #theunmakingofacollege #hampshirecollege #amygoldstein #moviereview #filmsnobreviews https://www.instagram.com/p/CaMM7nTLy_G/?utm_medium=tumblr

For her Div III project, April Nugent 15F explored the role of #heritagebreed #pigs in local food systems through the lens of Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs she helped Hampshire College Farm purchase. Her work included a nutritional study examining the environmental and reproductive impacts of housing swine and their offspring in forest vs. pasture land. Final first-year deadline for applications for Fall 2019 is January 15! #applynow! apply.hampshire.edu #HampshireCollege #DivisionIII #divIII #forrestvspasture #personalizedlearning #gloucestershireoldspot #nutritionalstudies #pigs #farmlife #farmy #environmentalimpact #alternativeeducation #createyourowncurriculum #nonsatisswine #alsoahyphenatedsubtitle @hampshirecollegefarm (at Hampshire College Farm and CSA) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsTR2kBhpHo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m35zf971tpsq

What’s Left Undone, by Tina Moore

Intro: 

Hey everybody. I’m gonna just assume that “everybody” right now is just my professor, and maybe like one or two of my quarantined stir-crazy classmates.  But if that doesn’t describe you then welcome. What a weird niche corner of the internet you’ve stumbled upon.    

So if you’ve just clicked on the audio recording, or if you’re only looking at the written paper, I’d like to call your attention to the other form of media. They should be exactly the same, so if you’d like to listen and read and follow along, feel free, pause the audio for a sec, and we’ll get started.`   

 Alright, so hi, I’m Tina. I just finished my second year of college and this is my project for my class on Autoethnography, which, if you’re as unfamiliar with the term as I was at the beginning of the semester, I’ll link something at the bottom of the post for you to look at. In very general terms, autoethnography is writing about your own culture, using, y’know, some type of anthropological data, just things like notes from observations, interviews, old documents, or old diary entries. If this project was real, legitimate autoethnography, I would also most definitely have worked on it for more than 2 weeks, but hey, things happen, life’s a mess, so just to be clear, this is more of an application of skills I picked up from learning about autoethnography than it is actual data.    

In part one, I’ll be talking about how my first project for this class was unceremoniously uprooted and I had like 3 week to come up with something completely different and finish it. It’s a bit monologue-y. I’m kind of a long-winded person. This introduction was only supposed to be like one paragraph. In part two I’m presenting part of my new project, and making a portrait of each member of my family by contrasting old poems that I wrote with more recent little snippets from fieldnotes I took. Part three is just there to kind of reflect on that. Also, just in case anyone from my house decides they want to listen to this, really, thank you. Without you I wouldn’t have any project at all. So anyways, I think that’s  all the formalities. Let’s get into this sucker.
