DESCRIPTION
Free Yourself from Body Image Struggles Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy "I can't do that until I've lost a bit of weight". "I need to slim down first". "When I'm thinner I'll."
It's a common reaction to put things on hold because of how you feel about your body or weight. This guide encourages you to take a step back from harmful social attitudes towards weight, and use ACT to support your journey from shame to meaningful, positive action and compassionate self-understanding.
What if you didn't feel held back by your body? This guide helps you to free yourself from harmful social attitudes about weight and to start living now.
Break the Binds of Weight Stigma draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a positive, action-based form of therapy that works by accepting your natural emotions and using your own personal values to build a path to the life you want to live. Stories, worksheets, reflection questions, and guided exercises show you how to embrace yourself and fight back against the social structures that tie value to size.
This is not a book about changing your body or losing weight. It's a guide to help you connect with the things that are important to you regardless of your weight. It's a step towards countering the harmful messages in society about our bodies. It's a movement. It's radical. It's freedom.
