Hello ladies! This Friday Daisy will be acting in Covent Garden for an excellent cause, she will be holding a workshop with Marina Sarsenova- creator of the 'Mind and Body Beautiful' workshop. The aim is to help create a positive body image and increase self-esteem through role-play. They will also introduce a few exercises that are great for combating negative thoughts and emotions when it comes to body image.
According to a survey conducted by Grazia magazine in 2006, a British woman worries about her size and shape every fifteen minutes. Out of 5,000 women in twenty British cities who took the survey only 2% were happy with their body weight.
Our unhealthy preoccupation with body weight and size is a hazard with as many as 1.6 million people currently suffering with eating disorders in the UK.
SPEAK UP is a charity that helps people solve their problems with role-play using actors. Marina has been volunteering for them since November last year as part of her Masters in Health and Social Marketing. The final part of her module was to come up with a project hence the birth of the “Mind and Body Beautiful” Workshop.
We promise it will be a fun and insightful two hours of your life. In return for your presence and participation a few surprises will be thrown in.
It is this Friday 15th April, from 2.30pm-4.30pm, we will disclose the location in central Covent Garden for those ladies who are interested and message us at info@modelethics.com.
The workshop will be divided into 2 parts with a short break in between.
Please wear something comfortable and bring a pen/pencil with you.
There is no charge as it is our first workshop and is a pilot-test for things to come.
It is also a great opportunity for you to play a part in pioneering a new and innovative way of getting women to feel better about themselves.
