Product Description

Release the burden of body-image angst. There's a wave of body dissatisfaction sweeping across society. While bookstore shelves are well-stocked with tomes of how to overcome body image problems, very few take a faith-based, much less Catholic, approach to self-healing.

Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body speaks not only to those who may have faced an eating disorder, but also to anyone who wants to live an abundant life, unencumbered by our culture's obsession with thinness, physical beauty, youth, or food. Personal anecdotes debunk cultural myths about beauty and discussion questions are included for personal or group reflections.

Publisher's Description

Countless women today are weighted down by the thought that they are not thin enough, pretty enough, young enough, or good enough. While bookstore shelves are well stocked with advice on how to overcome body image problems, very few take a faith-based, much less Catholic, approach to self-healing. Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body speaks not only to those who may have faced an eating disorder, but also to anyone who wants to live an abundant life, unencumbered by society's obsession with thinness, physical beauty, youth, or food.

Weightless offers:

Personal stories that debunk cultural myths about beauty
Spiritual tools to help address common struggles
Meditations to reshape the way a woman views herself
Discussion questions for personal or group reflection
