Book excerpt: A body-positive call to arms that's as inspirational as it is practical, from Instagram star Megan Jayne Crabbe For generations, women have been convinced that true happiness only comes when we hit that goal weight, shrink ourselves down, and change ourselves to fit a rigid and unrealistic beauty ideal. We've been taught to see our bodies as collections of problems that need to be fixed. Instagram star Megan Jayne Crabbe is determined to spread the word that loving the body you have is the real path to happiness. An international body positive guru with fans in all corners of the world, Megan spent years battling eating disorders and weight fluctuations before she found her way to body positivity. She quit dieting, discovered a new kind of confidence, and replaced all those old feelings of body shame and self-recrimination with everyday joy. Free of the pressure to fit in a size 2, her life became more satisfying than ever before. In her debut book, Megan shares her own struggles with self-acceptance and her path to body positivity. With whip-smart wit and a bold attitude that lights up her Instagram feed, Megan champions a new worldview for all of us: It's time to stop dieting and get on with your life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IF YOU'RE TIRED OF BEING AT WAR WITH YOUR BODY, THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. We've been convinced that happiness is something that only comes once we hit that goal weight, get those washboard abs, shrink ourselves down and change every part of ourselves. We believe that our bodies are the problem, but this is not true. It’s how we’ve been taught to see our bodies that’s the problem... It's time for us all to stop believing the lies we've been fed about what it means to be beautiful, and take our power back. Megan's body image issues began when she was five years old. She spent her childhood chasing thinness, and at fourteen found herself spiralling into anorexia. After recovery she spent years dieting, binging, losing and gaining weight. But then she found body positivity, quit dieting, and finally escaped the cult of thin. Now she's determined to let as many people as possible know the truth: that we are all good enough as we are. With her inimitable flair, whip-smart wit and kickass attitude, Megan argues for a new way of seeing ourselves, and a world where every body is celebrated. Where there is no such thing as a ‘bikini body diet’ and 97% of women don’t hate the way they look. A powerful call to arms as much as it is inspirational and practical, this book is the life-changing answer you’ve been looking for.

Book excerpt: 'A must read' JAMIE WINDUST 'A beautifully honest book' JUNO ROCHE 'A superb and necessary book' BEN PECHEY As a young, queer, plus-size person, Essie Dennis has spent a lot of time feeling like they weren't enough - not queer enough, not feminine enough, not perfect enough. When they took to social media to share how they felt, they were overwhelmed by how many others felt the same. I look too masculine to be non-binary I look too feminine to be a lesbian Am I too fat for drag? Inviting you to challenge accepted beauty standards and the concept of 'the perfect body', Essie takes everything they have learned on their journey to self-acceptance and body satisfaction to help guide you towards loving your queer body. From gender, sexuality and reclaiming your body, through to food, politics, social media and fatphobia, this radical book starts a conversation about body image and mental health that queer people are so often left out of. Fiercely and unapologetically written, and with honest advice and powerful stories from a diverse range of queer people throughout, this is an inspiring and necessary book that will show you that you are enough.

Book excerpt: In this collection of original personal essays and posts from her blog Stellar Fashion & Fitness, Jennifer King weaves coming-of-age stories into lessons on how to boost your self-esteem with the three things that have made a direct impact on her own confidence: fashion, fitness and body positivity. King explores her relationship with her body, fashion, food and exercise, as well as what media messages do to shape those feelings. She delves into how others' perceptions of her body either reinforce or tear down a healthy image, hoping to inspire others to boost their self-love from the outside in - and the inside out. As the blogger behind Stellar Fashion & Fitness, King brings 16 years of professional writing and editing to the site, along with a catalog of life experiences, a passion for fashion, and an energetic pursuit of health and happiness, recognizing that the two aren't mutually exclusive. When she's not helping friends shop for special occasions or racking up miles walking or running, you can find her exploring her home of Birmingham, Alabama, and watching comic book superhero movies with her husband, Jermaine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postfeminism and Body Image is a groundbreaking work that provides a poststructuralist and psychosocial analysis of key issues at the intersections of body image, psychology and media. The book outlines the theoretical framework through the work of renowned philosophers, Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze, and their use in feminist scholarship, to address body-image issues and challenges in the context of a postfeminist sensibility. The authors rethink body image, calling into question assumptions and obligations that affect recent issues related to social-media use, body positivity, the transformation imperative, body shaming and muscular masculinity. The analysis shows the advantage of seeing body image as a form of non-linear warfare, structured by contradiction, confusion and critique, where attempts to challenge oppressive body image practices are appropriated under the guise of positive alternatives to maintain that oppression. Through real-world examples, these nuanced concepts are made relatable and comprehensible to the readers. The book also offers a number of affirmative and hopeful ways forward. This is an indispensable resource for students and professionals of Gender studies, Health Psychology, Social Psychology and Media and Cultural Studies. It is also ideal for anyone exploring body image, self-image, postfeminism and poststructualism.

Book excerpt: Embody: A Guide to Celebrating Your Unique Body (and quieting that critical voice!) brings to life the work of The Body Positive, a non-profit organization founded in 1996 by Connie Sobczak and Elizabeth Scott, LCSW. This book’s message is rooted in the philosophy that people inherently possess the wisdom necessary to make healthy choices and to live in balance. It emphasizes that self-love, acceptance of genetic diversity in body size, celebration of the unique beauty of every individual, and intuitive self-care are fundamental to achieving good physical and emotional health. It encourages readers to shift their focus away from ineffective, harmful weight-loss efforts towards improving and sustaining positive self-care behaviors. Initial research indicates that this work significantly improves people’s ability to regulate eating, decreases depression and anxiety, and increases self-esteem—all critical resources that promote resiliency against eating and body image problems. Embody guides readers step-by-step through the five core competencies of the Body Positive’s model: Reclaim Health, Practice Intuitive Self-Care, Cultivate Self-Love, Declare Your Own Authentic Beauty, and Build Community. These competencies are fundamental skills anyone can practice on a daily basis to honor their innate wisdom and take good care of their whole selves because they are motivated by self-love and appreciation. Rather than dictating a prescriptive set of rules to follow, readers are guided through patient, mindful inquiry to find what works uniquely in their own lives to bring about—and sustain—positive self-care changes and a peaceful relationship with their bodies. Through workshops, lectures, and leadership trainings, Sobczak and Scott have helped thousands of people of all sizes, ages, sexual orientations, genders, ethnicities, and socioeconomic levels to lead healthier and more meaningful lives by learning how to cherish their unique bodies—no small task given today’s barrage of thin images and emphasis on dieting. Embody offers practical tools as well as personal stories to bring Sobczak and Scott’s work into one’s own life. It is a resource that can be read cover to cover as well as revisited time again while moving through the inevitable changes that come with personal growth. A lifeboat in the sea of messages that demean the bodies of both men and women, Embody is a safe haven for all.

Book excerpt: Worthy's holistic approach includes topics such as: •How to create a body-positive environment in the home, at school, and at the doctor’s office; •The 5 criteria to help a child find their healthiest weight; •Develop an action plan to keep children safe from bullying and weight bias at home, at school, and at the doctor’s office; •How do we learn kindness and self-compassion? •What is fat-shaming and how does it affect me and my family? •How do we set productive boundaries to talk about body size and shape? How and when do I discuss weight gain with my child? Like any other child with an illness, children living with obesity are worthy of kindness, acceptance and love at any size. The covid-19 pandemic has magnified the issues of weight stigma, bullying and fat-shaming among youth. Teasing about gaining the Covid 20 (lbs) during the pandemic has added to pervasive weight-related microaggressions children living with obesity must endure every day. Worthy:Helping Your Child Be Their Healthiest Weight is an innovative program for parents and professionals to help keep families healthy at any size and shape and help them feel worthy of kindness, love and acceptance. Prior to the pandemic 1 in 3 children were living with obesity. CDC has rung the alarm bell on two fronts of the obesity epidemic. The first bell is a sharp uptick in severe obesity among children 2-5 years. The second bell is the significant increase in obesity-related cancers in young adults. 16 cancers in all, some very serious such as pancreatic and ovarian cancer. It is clear that prior to Covid-19 our children needed our help but now it is urgent. In addition to medical treatment, children and families also need to feel hopeful and feel worthy of love, acceptance and kindness. When children have gain too much weight too fast they sleep less, move less, eat more, and are at risk for bullying and suicide ideation. Another study shows that children living with obesity feel emotionally worse than children who are undergoing chemotherapy. If children with too much weight feel worse than a child with cancer, can we offer them the same kindness to ease their pain? Worthy creates a safe space for parents to discuss their children's weight-related issues and to learn the 5 criteria to help their child be their healthiest weight, and develop an action plan to keep children safe from bullying and weight bias. Often, parents blame themselves and have their own shame about weight-related issues during Covid-19. Now as things reopen in the US, can we treat our children who gained too much weight too fast with kindness? Worthy helps parent’s use the power of kindness to keep their child safe at home, at school, and at the doctor’s office.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Body Is Not an Apology The Power of Radical Self-Love Against a global backdrop of war, social upheaval, and personal despair, there is a growing sense of urgency to challenge the systems of oppression that dehumanize bodies and strip us of our shared humanity. Rather than feel helpless in the face of oppression, world-renowned activist, performance poet, and author Sonya Renee Taylor teaches us how to turn to the power of radical self-love in her new book, The Body Is Not an Apology. Radical self-love is the guiding framework that transforms the learned self-hatred of our bodies and the prejudices we have about other people's bodies into a vision of compassion, equity, and justice. In a revolutionary departure from the corporate self-help and body-positivity movement, Taylor forges the inextricable bond between radical self-love and social justice. The first step is recognizing that we have all been indoctrinated into a system of body shame that profits off of our self-hatred. When we ask ourselves, "Who benefits from our collective shame?" we can begin to make the distinction between the messages we are receiving about our bodies or other bodies and the truth. This book moves us beyond our all-too-often hidden lives, where we are easily encouraged to forget that we are whole humans having whole human experiences in our bodies alongside others. Radical self-love encourages us to embark on a personal journey of transformation with thoughtful reflection on the origins of our minds and bodies as a source of strength. In doing this, we not only learn to reject negative messages about ourselves but begin to thwart the very power structures that uphold them. Systems of oppression thrive off of our inability to make peace with bodies and difference. Radical self-love not only dismantles shame and self-loathing in us but has the power to dismantle global systems of injustice-because when we make peace with our bodies, only then do we have the capacity to truly make peace with the bodies of others

If diverse body shapes and sizes were shown in the media, would this change your perception? While this book addresses all of these questions and more, it is not simply a standard scientific exploration of poor body image. Instead, it examines a new movement focused on understanding what it is that leads people to love, appreciate, take care of, and embrace their bodies. Featuring chapters written by leading, international experts in the science and practice of body image, Body Positive is a provocative and engaging look at how we feel about our physical selves in the twenty-first century - and how we can all come to feel better than we currently do.

How many times a day do you think something hateful about yourself or your body? How often do you wish your body looked different? Your body is your first and only true home. It holds your mind and all that encompasses, from your ability to love to your treasured memories. Your body lets you make those memories, whether it's by dancing through life or giving a loved on a hug. How could you hate a body that gives you such treasures - your home? As it turns out, it's rather easy to hate your body as a woman. 91% of women have body image issues, and that means that the vast majority of women don't feel comfortable in their home. You are not alone in this battle. The statistics don't mean that women are ungrateful for their bodies, but rather that there's an epidemic of low self-love. Having a positive body image is something many want but few can achieve, and there are numerous reasons for that: Social pressures to be perfect Cultural indicators of what is best Reinforced self-esteem issues Insecurity Whatever your reason may be, you don't have to look at your body - the same one that brings you all the best things in life - and say "I hate you." You can look at your body and say "I love you" instead, and the opportunity to do so begins right now. In this handbook to repairing your body image and relationship with your body, perfect for any woman, you'll uncover: The one-of-a-kind S.P.A.R.K.L.E. framework, making it easier than ever for your self-esteem and love for your body to shine Self-compassion: The radiant gem that will guide you to being kinder to yourself (and getting rid of the evil voice that says you aren't good enough) What the body positivity movement is really about and how you can embrace it once and for all Secrets for rewriting your personal narrative with your body, from dismantling negative self-talk to self-expression 3 areas most women struggle with when it comes to body image... and how you can transform those areas into your biggest strengths Skills for gratitude: What you need to know to appreciate your body for all it does for you (and embrace the home it provides) Forward-focused advice proven to create a life of body positivity and positive image thanks to the power of goals and encouragement And much more. Imagine a life where you love your body, fully and completely. Where you look at yourself in the mirror and instead of lies, you can tell yourself the truth about your body - it is perfect how it is no matter what sets you apart, and you are beautiful. That's the life that awaits you, if you choose to let that body image S.P.A.R.K.L.E. with this road map to repair.
