The guest speaker of the "Wisdom for Establishing a Healthy Body Image" Seminar will be Miss Kathleen Pik-san Kwok, Practising Clinical Psychologist I of Hong Kong Eating Disorders Centre and Hong Kong Mood Disorders Centre, Faculty of Medicine, Chinese University of Hong Kong.
It has become everybody's wish, male or female alike, to keep a healthy and good-looking body in modern society. The media is filled with information on keeping fit and slimming. Striving for an "ideal" body shape helps win recognition and boosts one's self-confidence. However, this effort may also result in stressful feelings, sense of failure, depression and even eating disorders or other serious consequences. Miss Kwok will shed light on how to attain a healthy and positive body image and how to deal with the negative emotions that are often associated with the culture of slimming.
Miss Kwok is also the vice-chairperson of the Joyful (Mental Health) Foundation and the advisor of the Regeneration Society. She is experienced in treating eating disorders and mood disorders, and is also very committed to enhancing public awareness in the subjects she specialises.
