A gentle guide to body acceptance. What do you say to yourself in front of the mirror? Would you say the same things to someone you love? What would you do with all the time you spend watching your body and your diet? It often seems like we are never good enough, not thin enough, or fit enough, and that we never eat well enough. Body dissatisfaction is something that is learned, but we can also learn to accept our bodies. Denisa Praje, a psychologist specializing in eating disorders, explains how the context in which we live affects how we see ourselves and how we can change our perspective and behavior. This book is a solace for anyone with unpleasant thoughts and emotions related to food. In it, you'll find questions to help you explore yourself, guidelines to improve your relationship with your body, and suggestions for leading a flexible lifestyle that allows you to focus on what really matters.
