Body shaming has long existed, but in today’s media-saturated and image-focused culture, it has become more visible and harder to escape. As bodies naturally change in older adulthood, navigating these judgments can feel especially challenging, with commentary coming from everywhere—from popular media to our closest friends and family. Body positivity, or the practice of celebrating and valuing all bodies, offers one powerful antidote to these messages of criticism and self-doubt. This presentation will help participants better understand what body positivity means, how to apply it in daily life, and how it can support self-esteem and quality of life for older adults.

A support group for older adults who find themselves aging alone. While aging alone comes with certain challenges, evidence also suggests that there is hope. Feeling connected with others can improve physical, emotional, and mental health. This support group offers a space for solo agers to join together to discuss openly their experiences with aging alone and to forge new connections.
2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month, 11 am–Noon
Zoom, free. Program requires advanced screening and registration. Please call 773.508.1000 for more information.
