Sonoma County Health At Every Size®

Health At Every Size® Basic Principles

1. Accepting and respecting the diversity of body shapes and sizes.

2. Recognizing that health and well-being are multi-dimensional and that they include

physical, social, spiritual, occupational, emotional, and intellectual aspects.

3. Promoting all aspects of health and well-being for people of all sizes.

4. Promoting eating in a manner which balances individual nutritional needs, hunger,

satiety, appetite, and pleasure.

5. Promoting individually appropriate, enjoyable, life-enhancing physical activity, rather

than exercise that is focused on a goal of weight loss.

Please endorse these principles by signing, below, with your name, and organization and title if you have one.
