Understanding Health at Every Size (HAES): Health at Every Size (HAES) is an approach that focuses on promoting well-being and self-acceptance rather than pursuing a specific body size or weight. HAES recognizes that health is a complex and multifaceted concept that goes beyond the number on the scale, emphasizing the importance of nurturing a positive relationship with your body and adopting healthy behaviors. Application and Scope of Health at Every Size (HAES): Health at Every Size is applied to address body image concerns, disordered eating, and the negative impacts of diet culture. It's particularly effective for individuals who want to break free from weight-focused thinking and embrace a holistic view of health that considers physical, mental, and emotional well-being. HAES is relevant for people of all body sizes and backgrounds. What to Expect in Health at Every Size (HAES) Sessions: In Health at Every Size sessions, you'll work with a supportive and non-judgmental therapist to explore your relationship with your body, challenge harmful beliefs about weight, and develop a healthier approach to self-care. The focus will be on building positive body image, intuitive eating, and engaging in enjoyable physical activities without the emphasis on weight loss.
