🌞 Bright and early on Tuesday morning, our founder Steph and the Conversation Community team at delivered our signature Banter Basics introductory workshop to the Year 10 students at KGV.

⭐️’s Conversation Communities program works with student leaders from around the world to establish in-person discussion groups on high school and college campuses.

🗣️During our time together, we explored the different influences that shape our perceptions of our bodies — cultural influences, social media messages, and commentary from peers and family members.

💡 We learned about how body image is a story that we tell ourselves based on how we make sense of all of these influences -- each person’s experience is different, but all equally valid.

🔎 Interested to book us for a workshop, set up a Conversation Community at your school, or explore other ways to work with us? Visit www.bodybanter.com and/or DM us to learn more!

🌞 週二早上，我們的創辦人Steph和@bodybanter_kgv的傾偈小組 (Conversation Community) 為KGV的10年級學生舉辦了我們的 “Banter Basics” 入門工作坊。，在高中和大學校園裡建立面對面的討論小組。

⭐️ 工作坊的期間，我們探討了塑造我們對身體形象的不同影響 -- 文化背景的影響、社交媒體信息、以及來自同齡人和家庭成員的評論。

💡 我們了解到身體形象是我們根據自己對所有這些影響的理解而告訴自己的一個故事。因此，雖然每個人的經歷都不同，但都同樣值得聆聽和正視。

🔎 如果有興趣預訂我們的工作坊，在你的學校建立一個傾偈小組，或探索與我們合作的其他方式，就請訪問www.bodybanter.com 或直接在Instagram 的平台上DM我們吧!

👂大家坐埋黎學啲新嘢啦！我哋今天介紹比大家嘅字係 —「身體自主權」！
📚 「世說身語」係我哋最新推出、有中英文對照的詞典，而當中我地會介紹唔同常用於討論食物同身體形象的詞語。
「世說身語」嘅每一個 post 包括：
🔹詞語字面上嘅意思
🔹唔同人對呢個詞語嘅理解同經歷
🔹呢個詞語嘅延伸同其他討論我地建立呢個詞典目的係展示唔同人對不同概念嘅理解，而鼓勵你探索係日常生活可以點使用呢啲詞語，將佢哋融入你日常生活裡表達自己嘅方式。

🥳 記住留意我哋接下黎一系列嘅 post 啦！

🔗 你可以在我們的bio裡找到詞典的link！

💡非常感激我哋嘅義工，，幫我們做呢個post嘅研究同設計！

🧠 Time to learn some lingo! Our featured word from the Body Language dictionary is: Bodily autonomy.
📚 Our newest resource, the Body Language Dictionary, is a bilingual dictionary of terms that are commonly used in conversations about food and body.
Each entry includes:
🔹 a standard definition
🔹 living definitions (how members of our community explain this term in the context of their daily lives) and
🔹 ideas for exploring this term further.

✨ Our goal with creating this dictionary is to show you that there is no one-size-fits-all definition of a term, and to encourage you to explore the many possible ways that these terms can fit into your everyday conversations.

🥳 Happy bantering!

🔗 You can find the dictionary using the link in our bio.

💡 Special thanks to our wonderful volunteer, for researching and creating this incredible post!

✨ 在我們的 ‘跨媒「體」真啲’ post 系列中，我們的談身大使跟我們分享他們在各種地方（書，視頻，和不同的媒介）當中學到有關身體形象和精神健康的新東西。

💡 今天，我們跟 Priscilla 一起傾吓計。

📣 Priscilla 的明智之言：
我認為擁有一個健康目標是完全沒問題的，因為這些目標是我們一些動力的泉源。但更重要的是：要牢記討厭現在「沒有達到目標的自己」是沒有意義的。在任何時候、任何型態的自己也值得自愛。

22/03/2023

✨ In our Multimedia Musings series, our Banter-bassadors reflect on the unexpected places - books, videos, and other diverse mediums - where they have learned something new about their relationship with food and body.

📣 In today’s musing, we hear from Priscilla.

💡 Priscilla’s Top Takeaways:
“From my point of view, having health goals is totally fine as it is also a great way to hold ourselves accountable and keep us motivated. However, it is crucial to keep in our mind: it is pointless to dislike the current self who has yet to achieve the goal. Instead of thinking that we only deserve to love ourselves when we become the "better version" of us, we can learn to see that we are deserving of love right now.”
