Bodylove: Learning to Like Our Looks and Ourselves―A Practical Guide for Women - Softcover

"I strongly recommend this book to their women clients who are working on body image problems. In fact, most women could benefit from reading Bodylove." -- Elayne Saltzberg, "Women in Psychology" newsletter " "Bodylove" lends itself to several uses - a self-help approach, a workbook for therapist and client, and even a supervision tool for clinicians to explore personal issues." -- Denise Clark, MA, "National Anorexic Aid Society" newsletter "An insightful guide... Any woman who has ever looked in the mirror and sighed should find it helpful." -- Mary Ellen Donovan, co-author of "Women and Self-Esteem"

This book is for women who want to become less critical of their appearance, less preoccupied with weight, and more in love with themselves -- physically, sexually, and emotionally. Combining vivid case histories, practical techniques, and simple exercises, Bodylove addresses family expectations, self-esteem, aging, and social values.
