BODY LITERACY - READING YOUR BODY'S BAROMETERS WITH CLARITY

BODY LITERACY: READING YOUR BODY'S BAROMETERS WITH CLARITY

THIS EVENT IS PART OF THE 2026 "WATCHFUL WAITING" MONTHLY WEBINAR SERIES

Participants develop body literacy skills, learning how to read bodily signals – "Body Barometers." Emphasis is placed on salutogenic observation and discernment rather than diagnosis or pathology. Bodies communicate continuously, but without literacy, signals are often misread through anxiety or wishful thinking.

This session teaches how to interpret bodily information calmly and accurately during watchful waiting. Participants learn how to distinguish observation from alarm, and interpretation from diagnosis/pathogenesis, strengthening confidence while reducing unnecessary escalation.

Using Chapters 4 and 5 in the Book Take Care of Yourself by Vickery and Fries:
