To talk about bodies being "colonized" is to recognize that our relationship with our physical selves isn't just personal—it’s political and historical.

When a person feels "too loud," "too dark," "too big," or "too hairy," they are often reacting to a colonial standard that told their ancestors those traits were shameful. Decolonizing the body means realizing that "imperfections" are actually just biological and cultural diversities that were once weaponized against us.

Colonization is deeply tied to Capitalism. By making people feel that their natural bodies are "problems to be solved," industries can sell "solutions."

To sell us these things, the system encourages us to view our bodies as projects or machines rather than as "homes" for our spirits. This creates a state of dissociation where we stop listening to what our bodies actually need and start listening only to what they "should" look like.

By sharing our stories of shame, love, and deception; we eradicate the shame & inspire others on their journey towards reclamation.
