The lack of BIPOC and LGBTQ representation in the fields of health and nutrition has led to repeated racist and unscientific biases that negatively impact the very people they purport to help. Many representatives of the increasingly popular body-positivity movement actually add to the body-image concerns of queer people of color by emphasizing cisgender, heteronormative, and Eurocentric standards of beauty. Few mainstream body-positivity resources address the intersectional challenges of anti-Blackness, colorism, homophobia, transphobia, and generational trauma that are at the root of our struggles with wellness and self-care. In Decolonizing Wellness, registered dietitian and nutritionist Dalia Kinsey will help listeners improve their health without restriction, eliminate stress around food and eating, and turn food into a source of pleasure instead of shame. A road map to body acceptance and self-care for queer people of color, this book is filled with practical eating practices, journal prompts, affirmations, and mindfulness tools. Ultimately, decolonizing nutrition is essential not only to our personal well-being but to our communityโ€™s well-being and to the possibility of greater social transformation. This is a body-positivity and food-freedom book for marginalized folks. Itโ€™s a guide to throwing out food rules in exchange for internal cues and adopting a self-love-based approach to eating. Itโ€™s about learning to trust our bodies and turning mealtime into a time for celebration and healing.

Dalia Kinsey is a registered dietitian, decolonized wellness coach, and the creator of the Body Liberation for All podcast. On a mission to spread joy, reduce suffering, and eliminate health disparities in the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC community, she rejects diet culture and teaches people to use nutrition as a self-care and personal empowerment tool to counter the damage of systemic oppression.

LaNecia Edmonds is a talented actor, audiobook narrator, and Zumba instructor who grew up always knowing she wanted an acting career. A native of Rhode Island, she honed her skills in acting classes in Boston and New York. When not working, she enjoys spending time with her two sons, daughter, and amazing husband.
