Body Confident promotes mental and physical well-being with a nurturing, supportive approach to weight loss through journaling. Offering a mix of instruction and writing prompts coupled with inspiring quotes and compelling art, this journal is in a class by itself. While many weight-loss books suggest that a reader keep a journal, none guides them as this one does toward a specific goal--that of losing weight and living a healthier, happier life. By helping them to learn and care about themselves more--both physically and emotionally--Moran teaches readers to see weight management as a positive, empowering process rather than a self-negating one.Victoria Moran is the author of seven books on health, diet, and personal growth, including Creating a Charmed Life, Love Yourself Thin, Get the Fat Out and Lit From Within: How to Look and Feel as Beautiful as Your Soul Knows You Are. Her articles have appeared in a variety of publications, including Personal Journaling, Ladies Home Journal and the Yoga Journal. She has practiced yoga for thirty years and taught yoga for six years. She has studied yoga and Eastern thought in India and Nepal. She lives in Kansas City, Missouri.

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.

"You never get a second chance to make a first impression." Have you ever heard this saying? Before we get a chance to say a word, our gestures and manners have already spoken for us. Though some of the rules of good manners change, others remain constant. This book is about the constants: the least you need to know to make a good first impression. As Clarence Thomas once said, "Good manners will open doors that the best education cannot." Use this book as a master key to open those doors.

Body confidence is having zero doubt that you can physically handle any situation. It's knowing that your body is functioning properly and can perform any task you need it to. Body confidence is having pride in the work and consistent effort you've put in to keep yourself at the top of your game.--Publisher.

In Confidence Culture, Shani Orgad and Rosalind Gill argue that imperatives directed at women to “love your body” and “believe in yourself” imply that psychological blocks rather than entrenched social injustices hold women back. Interrogating the prominence of confidence in contemporary discourse about body image, workplace, relationships, motherhood, and international development, Orgad and Gill draw on Foucault’s notion of technologies of self to demonstrate how “confidence culture” demands of women near-constant introspection and vigilance in the service of self-improvement. They argue that while confidence messaging may feel good, it does not address structural and systemic oppression. Rather, confidence culture suggests that women—along with people of color, the disabled, and other marginalized groups—are responsible for their own conditions. Rejecting confidence culture’s remaking of feminism along individualistic and neoliberal lines, Orgad and Gill explore alternative articulations of feminism that go beyond the confidence imperative.

We live in a world where beauty is everything. Society tells us that if we just looked a certain way, if we had the right products, if we were skinny enough, then we would be enough —we would have value. Society is wrong, but it took Katie H. Willcox years to understand this: “Over the course of my 30 short years, I have both worked as a professional model and been the exact opposite of our culture’s beauty ideal. I have struggled with my weight and felt like I didn’t and never would fit in. Then I had a powerful realization: my misery and self-loathing didn’t change with my weight or how ‘pretty’ society thought I was, so my looks weren’t the source of happiness and worth that I had believed them to be. But then, what was? And how had I come to invest so much of myself in beliefs that were so untrue?” In these pages, Katie shares the lessons she learned in her journey to find the answers to these questions. She reveals who gains from our feeling small and why we need to examine the messages we receive from our culture and our families. She explains how we can redefine beauty, make healthy the new “skinny,” and harness the power of our thoughts to choose self-love. Katie encourages us to discover our true magnificent selves, find our purpose, and pursue our dreams —and help others to do the same. Join the movement!

A GIRL'S GUIDE TO BODY CONFIDENCE is a 65k-word self-help book that relies on education, not just inspiration, to improve low self-esteem and body confidence in women. Dr. Katherine Iscoe utilises her personal struggle with body confidence and humorous tone to ease readers through the confrontational process of transforming their negative thoughts. This science-backed process is informed by extensive research, her years helping over 1,200 women through her acclaimed 7-Pillar Forever Approach, as well as her academic qualifications in health sciences, exercise physiology and biotechnology, and counselling. Part One serves as an introduction to the key methodologies used throughout the book, such as The Forever Approach, and focuses on setting up baseline measurements through surveys and exercises. These interactive surveys consist of industry-recognized tools and Dr. Katherine's own evaluative methods and are used to gauge readers' initial self-confidence. Part One also invites the reader to identify with the author's experiences. Delving into philosophical, physiological, and psychological studies, Part Two delivers scientific analysis presented in a fun, digestible format. Part Two begins with a dive into how our perspectives of self are formed and negative thoughts are triggered. Dr. Katherine then delves into the research behind our emotional reactions. Part Three culminates in the five key underpinnings of The Forever Approach: identity, experiences, knowledge, kindness, and time/expectations. Each element is presented as a lesson with actionable tools and--together--form the formula to maintaining a positive, holistic and long-term perspective of self. Finally, the initial surveys are mirrored in Part Three so readers can measure their ongoing progress.

From body-positive Instagram influencer and content creator Meg Boggs, an inclusive and empowering fitness and lifestyle guide to inspire readers of every shape and size. For years, Meg Boggs believed the narrative told to her by society: she thought that as a plus-sized woman, she could never be fit; she could never be strong; she could never love exercise; she could never be enough. But when Meg became a mom, she decided to rethink her preconceived notions and embrace her body for what it is, not what diet culture said it should be. In Fitness for Every Body, Meg shares her personal story and inspires you to celebrate your own body for all its capabilities. Featuring a dozen step-by-step, full-body workouts, this book is more than a workout guide or a training manual. It’s a reminder that you’re more than just your weight, that you are stronger than you believe, and that just because you might not be thin, doesn’t mean that you can’t be an athlete. Your body is capable of doing incredible things—you just have to let it. Equally uplifting and enlightening, this body-positive fitness guide will inspire you to love your body no matter your size and to approach food and exercise in a way that benefits both mental and physical health and wellbeing.
