10 Steps To Positive Body Image

The list below was compiled from the National Eating Disorder Association.  I love all of the suggestions, and hope you'll try at least a few! 


FYI, If you like #2, you should gather a group of friends and try my "Best Body Positive Group Activity Ever" version.  Also, for help developing your "critical viewer of social and media messages" skills (#8), check out About-Face, my all-time favorite body-positive nonprofit organization.

  1. All excellent tips, especially No. 5! I never realized how crucial it is to have loving, positive and supportive people in your life until I got some not-so-great ones chirping in my ear.

    1. Great point! I find that I'm the most at peace with my body when I surround myself with grounded people. Even living in San Francisco, instead of Los Angeles, has had this effect!

  4. I just found your blog, via a link to the 20/20 interview. It is going on my list of blogs to keep up with for certain. :)

    I am a budding size positive activist and soon to be Health at Every Size practicing physician. Once I am licensed, I plan to start a blog myself. I'm currently surrounding myself with size positive people and people who question the norm of beauty and health.

    Thanks for being an amazing warrior out there!!
