More Than A Body
Your Body Is an Instrument, Not an Ornament
Summary:
The book challenges societal norms that define self-worth based on physical appearance, advocating for a more empowering perspective that values bodies for their capabilities rather than their looks. It provides insights and tools to help readers develop positive body image and use their bodies as instruments for living fulfilling lives, rather than merely as objects to be admired.
Key points:
1. Body Function Over Appearance: The book promotes seeing our bodies as tools for interaction, not just objects of beauty. This can help us value our bodies for their capabilities, not just looks.
