Madeline’s Reviews > Body Neutral: A Revolutionary Guide to Overcoming Body Image Issues > Status Update

“Body neutrality offers a safe place to rest as you exit body hatred without putting pressure on you to somehow magically love every iota of your body and self. It gives you the ability to see yourself and the world clearly, which means you can take your emotional power back from the places that don’t deserve it and deescalate a lot of your triggers and spirals.”

“If I adopt a body neutral lens, I can just acknowledge that two things are true and neither of them is a problem. One true thing is that I get pimples and the other is that I don’t like when I get pimples. Neither of these facts means anything about me, neither affects my self worth, identity, or life, and neither has any moral value, significance, or power over me.”
