Location: Online, Live via Zoom (link will be shared with ticketholders)
Six Saturdays, March 12-April 16, 2-3:30pm ET
In a world where marginalized bodies are most vulnerable to the oppression of diet culture, self-attuned eating is an act of resistance. Our relationships to food and body do not develop in a vacuum. This online six-week intuitive eating course for the public explores how Western culture disrupts self-attuned care for marginalized bodies as a means of social control. Through intuitive eating, we reclaim and rediscover a more authentic relationship to ourselves.
WTCI has been a pioneer in teaching and advocating for intuitive eating since 1981. Over the last forty years, we’ve developed an approach to food and body that is anti-diet and firmly rooted in psychological theory, intersectional feminism, anti-racism, gender inclusivity, fat positivity and anti-colonialism.
Course instructor Alicia Leporati, LMHC is a queer feminist therapist who is body positive, sex-positive, anti-diet and HAES aligned. She strives to create safe spaces for connection and is committed to anti-racist work. She works with clients on topics of eating and body, sex and sexuality, existential concerns, increasing life satisfaction, and emotional well-being. Helping clients increase self-love and push back against harmful white hetero-patriarchal messages are top priorities in her work. Alicia is a graduate of the WTCI training program and has a private practice in Westchester and on the Upper West Side.
