At LauGau Nutrition, we recognize that it’s crucial to raise awareness of grossophobia and promote an inclusive, respectful approach to care. In short, medical grossophobia is a worrying reality that requires special attention to ensure fair and equitable healthcare for all, whatever their build.
Does that ring a bell?
- Consulting health professionals makes you feel uncomfortable because you are afraid of being judged for your weight.
- You feel you are losing confidence in certain professionals who seem to have a rigid vision of what it means to be healthy.
- You simply avoid consulting
Topics covered:
– Discussion of real-life situations
– Discussion of how to react when a healthcare professional makes grossophobic comments about us
– How to set limits?
Format:
70 (incl. taxes) per person online via the Zoom platform.
Tuesday March 17 (6:00 pm to 7:30 pm) and Tuesday May 12 (6:00 pm to 7:30 pm)
6people.
A receipt will be given at the end of each workshop so that you can claim on your private insurance or for tax purposes.
