Studies have shown that children with positive body image are more likely to engage in health-promoting behaviors. This is why Dr. Ganesan developed a curriculum which will teach children how to develop and maintain a healthy body image.

They will learn about:

The dangers of diet culture, how to navigate social media responsibly, how to develop self-love and find authentic beauty, and how to celebrate body diversity.

Curriculum Offerings:

Parent educational presentations

Body image workshops for adults
