Let's be honest: most people are unhappy with at least some
aspect of their physical appearance. Just think of all the money we
spend each year trying to improve our looks But if worrying about
your appearance is getting in the way of living, maybe it's time to
start thinking about body image in a completely new way.
Based in proven-effective acceptance and commitment therapy
(ACT), Living with Your Body and Other Things You Hate offers a
unique approach to addressing your struggle with body image. In
this book, you will not be told that your self-perceptions are
wrong, that your thoughts are irrational, or that your feelings are
misguided. Instead, you will learn to live with the reality that
these often painful thoughts and beliefs about yourself will arise
from time to time, and that what is really important is accepting
these distressing thoughts without allowing them to dominate your
life.
You know what it's like to constantly be checking the mirror, to
avoid certain social situations where your body may be exposed, or
to gaze longingly at a fashion model in a magazine and think, "Why
can't I be her?" But what you may not know is that people who
struggle with negative body image are at an increased risk for
depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and low self-esteem. Body
image problems can even lead to major financial issues. By focusing
on your appearance and little else, you are hurting yourself in
more ways than one.
If you are ready to find a purpose in life that is more
important than the pain you feel about your appearance, this book
provides a truthful, powerful resource.
