The Body Myth: Adult Women and the Pressure to be PerfectClinical psychologist Margo Maine has been successfully helping adult women overcome eating disorders and body image problems for over twenty years. In The Body Myth, she explains the toll these problems can take on women's lives and provides healing insights and proven techniques for reclaiming readers lives from the debilitating belief that a woman's self-worth and her worth to others are derived from how she looks, how much she weighs, and what she eats the Body Myth. Using poignant real-life stories, Dr. Maine explores the complex emotional, social, and cultural forces that perpetuate the Body Myth. A unique and invaluable source of information and inspiration, this breakthrough guide equips readers with the knowledge and tools to escape the clutches of the Body Myth and live a more balanced, fulfilling life.
