Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 You are more than a body, and you knew that once. It takes some work to remember and understand this truth, but it is important. You are more than beautiful, more than parts in need of fixing, and more than an object to be looked at and evaluated.
#2 We all live in the sea of objectification, and it is a constant burden on our mental and physical energy to keep our heads above water. We can adapt and survive in the sea of objectification, but it is a constant burden on our mental and physical energy to keep our heads above water.
#3 When you become objectified, you begin to view yourself in a different way. You start to view your body in a negative way, and your identity becomes divided between the whole, embodied human on the beach and the self-objectifying, image-focused part of yourself trying to stay afloat in the water.
#4 The solutions to your body image woes are advertised as being readily available in beauty fixes and straightforward diet plans, but the truth is that you are the problem. You have grown accustomed to being uncomfortable. You hate your body instead of hating the expectation that your body fit a certain mold.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

You are more than a body, and you knew that once. It takes some work to remember and understand this truth, but it is important. You are more than beautiful, more than parts in need of fixing, and more than an object to be looked at and evaluated.

#2

We all live in the sea of objectification, and it is a constant burden on our mental and physical energy to keep our heads above water. We can adapt and survive in the sea of objectification, but it is a constant burden on our mental and physical energy to keep our heads above water.

#3

When you become objectified, you begin to view yourself in a different way. You start to view your body in a negative way, and your identity becomes divided between the whole, embodied human on the beach and the self-objectifying, image-focused part of yourself trying to stay afloat in the water.

#4

The solutions to your body image woes are advertised as being readily available in beauty fixes and straightforward diet plans, but the truth is that you are the problem. You have grown accustomed to being uncomfortable. You hate your body instead of hating the expectation that your body fit a certain mold.

#5

Body image disruptions, which are things like facing unreal ideals in media, aging, pregnancy, injury, illness, bullying, criticism, self-comparison, abuse, and violence, will push you out of your body image comfort zone.

#6

The first and worst path people take leaves them sinking into shame. Many of us deal with disruptions to our relationships with our bodies by numbing ourselves from having to feel pain or embarrassment, and when the numbness wears off, we are left in deeper pain.

#7

When we constantly see female bodies as objects that can be used and discarded, we can’t blame them for sinking into a dark place and feeling worthless.

#8

When you try to fix your body, you’ll never truly be able to solve your body image problem. And when you opt out of anything that would require you to be seen, you’re simply hiding.

#9

We were never invited to go swimming, and we believed that if we were seen in a swimsuit, we would be humiliated. We hid inside to protect ourselves from the embarrassment, but we never felt any better about our bodies or ourselves.

#10

Body image disruptions, like objectification, are normal parts of the world we live in. But you can choose how you respond to them. You can fall into the same patterns of clinging to your comfort-zone life raft, trying quick fixes to keep your body image afloat, or simply hiding from the world.

#11

The resiliency model developed by Glenn Richardson illustrates three possible responses to deal with disruptions: reintegration with loss, reintegration back to the comfort zone, and resilient reintegration. This model helps illustrate how disruptions can be painful, but they can also make room for change.

#12

The objectifying culture we live in affects women especially hard, as they are constantly being judged based on their appearance. Body image resilience helps you prioritize your own first-person perspective on your incredible body regardless of how you look or how others feel about your looks.

#13

We have to constantly challenge our beliefs about our bodies, because they are constantly being disrupted by the media and by our peers.

#14

When we respond to our disruptions in a new way, seeing more in them and ourselves, they can transform from waves of destruction into waves of opportunity. We must choose to confront shame rather than simply adapt to it and let it become our new normal.

#15

Body image resilience is the ability to feel good about your body regardless of what others think. It can be achieved through the experiences of body shame, insecurity, and self-objectification, as well as through major disruptions to your body image.

#16

The path to rising with resilience is not an easy one, but it can be well worth the effort of leaving behind your comfort-zone life rafts. When body image shame and anxiety arise, do not turn against yourself to hurt and judge yourself in all the old ways. Instead, look at those feelings as opportunities for forward motion to power your return to your body as your own.

#17

What influences the way you feel about your body. Which specific sources, messages, and experiences have shaped the way you think about your own body and others’ bodies.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The destinations we think we’re looking for are often the same places, like fitting into those jeans in the back of your closet, wearing a bikini proudly, or getting your body back. The routes and shortcuts to these destinations vary, from surgical interventions to a full-time commitment to that workout plan or diet.

#2

In media, including social media, children’s movies, and even the local news, women are represented as pretty parts to be consumed. This objectification, which literally turns people into parts, happens in children’s cartoons when the curvy, long-lashed female animal is introduced.

#3

The way women are portrayed in media is especially important. When women are sparse in media, the way they’re portrayed becomes even more important. In entertainment media, older men appear ten times more frequently than older women.
