Silken Dimpled Flesh or Cellulite? A Historical Perspective on Women's Body Image
Come alone or come with friends, but do come! This is an opportunity to look at a slide show presenting women's bodies from the first primitive statue to current times. We will discuss historical and current cultural influences that literally shape women's bodies - or at least tell us which type is "in." Presenter Lucia LiCavoli, Ph.D., founder of Clarus Center in Warrenville, has worked with clients struggling with eating disorders and body image since 1988. She has given presentations on body image to numerous audiences over the years, and passionately promotes good dialogue about helping ourselves and our daughters live with confidence and freedom in the world, even if our particular body image is not "in" at this time.
