Letting go of the opinions you and others have of
yourself and resting in who God says you are is a necessary step to
find freedom from personal strongholds. This concept coined by
Pastor Timothy Keller known as “self-forgetfulness” can also apply
to the negative relationship we may have with our bodies.
Understanding and practicing self-forgetfulness has the power to
heal us from body shame that keeps us from living the lives we are
made for. Allie Marie Smith and Certified Life and Mental Health
Coach Kassandra Baker discuss:
What self-forgetfulness is and how it can help you heal from poor body image
How to begin to fully accept the way God created your body
What Biblical identity formation is and how it impacts the way you show up in the world
The pendulum swing of pride and self-hatred which keeps us in bondage
How body idolatry and self-objectification keep us imprisoned
2 practices you can take today to cultivate a healthier relationship with your body
How to be released from what
others think of you as well of your own opinion of yourself
Kassandra Baker is a Certified Health, Life, & Mental Health Coach
and Professional Speaker. She helps women who are trapped in
unhealthy habits such as perfectionism, disordered eating,
legalism, and people pleasing, so they can break free from
dysfunctional behaviors in order to live free.
