episode 134: how do you know if you have body image issues?
Do you have body image issues?
What does it mean to have negative body image?
This is today’s topic in episode 134 of The Diet Diaries.
Many women don’t even realize they have negative body image because talking to ourselves in the way that we do and feeling so badly about how we look is just considered normal.
But it’s not.
I was recently a guest on my friend Erica Webb’s podcast and we touched on this topic a little bit—so I wanted to offer more resources and support because many of us don’t know what we don’t know. Which means we can’t change anything and we’re stuck in the endless cycle of dieting as a way to fix everything bad we feel about ourselves.
To an extent this is true around food too—dieting has become such a way of life for people that we don’t even realize it’s happened. We don’t realize that we don’t know how to eat if we’re not on a diet.
Here’s what I share in todays’ episode:
How to know if you have negative body image
Why body image issues are so insidious
How we use negative body image as a way to connect
Specific skills that will help you start to address the critical, abusive thoughts you have about your body and how you look
