Body Neutral

Body Neutral is an incredible resource for those who are looking to find greater peace with their bodies in order to live a more empowered, joyful and meaningful life. * Matt McGorry *In Body Neutral, Kneeland illustrates a liberating pathway to help people untangle their self-worth from their body image, healing their perceptions of their bodies as they go. Navigating the work of body neutrality through identifying ‘body image avatars,’ Kneeland helps people get to the root of their body anxiety and utilise strategies to heal. This is an important book for people ready to interrogate their feelings about their bodies and move toward body neutrality in practical, manageable steps. – Lexie Kite, PhD * coauthor of More Than a Body *
