Body neutral: a revolutionary guide to overcoming body image issues
(Book)
Description
"A life-changing guide to reclaiming your relationship with your body and yourself. Have you ever thought that if only you could change something about the way you looked, your life would be better? But the truth is that even if you were to magically attain the "perfect" body right now, your problems wouldn't be solved. Because body image issues are never just about the body. Body image issues are always about something deeper, and they always serve some kind of purpose. Over a decade ago, Jessi Kneeland had a successful career as a personal trainer. But Kneeland began to realize that helping their clients achieve their fitness goals still wasn't putting an end to the body hatred, anxiety, obsession, dysmorphia, and disconnection they were experiencing. Searching for a solution to the problem that really plagued their clients, Kneeland dedicated themselves to unpacking and researching what it truly takes to help people understand, process, and heal their body image issues. In this book, you'll find: -The definition of "body neutrality"-the ability to accept and respect your body even if it isn't the way you'd prefer it to be--and how "body neutrality" can heal and improve your relationship with yourself and your body. -An introduction to the four body image "avatars"-the four common categories of body image issues most people struggle with. -A quiz to determine your body image avatar: whether you're The Self-Objectifier, The High Achiever, The Outsider, or The Runner. -A specific and unique plan to help you strip away the layers of moral judgment, false meaning, lies, and blame that have been blocking your ability to access body neutrality. There is a reason you're in pain, and this book will help you figure out what that reason is. When we do this work to overcome our own personal body image suffering, we not only liberate ourselves-we begin to build the kind of world we all deserve to live in."--
