Body Brilliant: A Teenage Guide to a Positive Body Image

Rate this book
Written by teenage expert, Nicola Morgan, 'Body Brilliant' will help teenagers to develop or retain a positive body image. We're all bombarded with information and images - through the media and our peers - about being too big, too small, being cool, being popular or having the 'right' kind of clothes. This book addresses the body issues that nearly everyone worries about at some point in their lives and gives practical and mindful solutions to work through worries, using real-life examples, quotes and anecdotes from young adults interviewed especially for this book. 'Body Brilliant' explores psychological pressures that make us see our bodies in certain ways, positively or negatively, as well as considering how adolescent body changes, gender identity and gender expectations, sexuality and sexual orientation affect self-image, and looks at issues such as body dysmorphia and eating disorders. 'Body Brilliant' also encourages you to think about how you view differences in others and understand that variety is a brilliant thing. And that being yourself is much better than being just like everyone else. Learn to celebrate the differences that make every body brilliant!

Książka przeznaczona raczej dla młodszych czytelników, ale daje bardzo fajny pogląd na to, jak powinnismy patrzeć na siebie, na własne cialo.🌷❤️

Wspaniała! Porusza ważny temat i to jeszcze zwracając uwagę na tożsamość płciową, seksualność, odmienność fizyczną, kulturę..i dodatkowo napisana z taką dbałością o czytelnika/czytelniczkę. No cudo!

Książka warta uwagi natomiast dla osób młodszych. Było dużo rzeczy o których miałam pojęcie i się po prostu nudziłam. Sama w sobie książka dla młodszego czytelnika jest bardzo pomocna i jeżeli ktoś ma w rodzinie kogoś w wieku dojrzewania to taka książka może być bardzo pomocna. Gdybym była młodsza to wiem że by mi była przydatna

Pozostawiam bez oceny.

Uważam, że każda osoba nastoletnia (i nie tylko) powinna poznać informacje tu zawarte. Jeśli wybierze do tego tę książkę- super. Przystępna i zrozumiała treść, wyróżnione graficznie ważne elementy i ogrom istotnych tematów.

Polecam!

A good, concise way of getting teenagers to think about body positivity and how to be more body positive in a world which encourages us to hate ourselves.

It was okay, highly recommended for teens. I did not learn much from this book as I am older and wiser but if I would have read it when I was a teenager myself it would do me good.
