In this episode of Living Embodied we are chatting with Vivienne McMaster, a Body Acceptance Photographer, Trauma Informed Coach and Certified Body Trust Provider.
About the conversation
Are you one of those people who has a hard time with photographs of yourself? If you are, you are not alone! Many people, myself included, have challenging feelings of body shame when we see photos of ourselves. In this episode you will meet Vivienne McMaster and hear her insights on how we can work through some of these feelings and not only become more comfortable with seeing photographs of ourselves, but also how the camera can become a tool of healing and supporting us in living an embodied life.
