EP 34: Praying Body Blessings Over Your Kids

In episode 34 of The Joyful Health Show, Aubrey and Kasey discuss how to pray body blessings over your kids throughout the day to keep them connected with what God says about their body. We may not be able to shelter our children from the pressure of diet culture, but we can teach them to trust their bodies as the Lord made them and set a foundation of grace. In this episode, Aubrey and Kasey discuss personal stories of their own childhood as they relate to body image, what they hope to instill in the way they parent their kids during meals, movement, and in front of the mirror. We share ways of how you can pray over your children throughout the day, integrating physical and emotional sensations with Scripture, and most importantly, prioritizing loving kids for the whole person they are in Christ. We cover:

• The hidden diet culture messages that instill body ideals as young as three
• How we can teach children to trust their bodies as we learn to reconnect with ours
• Practical ways to nurture healthy body image and improve body esteem in kids
