Finding Peace with Your Body

"Finding Peace with Your Body" is a chapter from the book:  What's Real, What's Ideal: Overcoming a Negative Body Image that was written by Brangien Davis and was published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc in 1999. In this chapter, Davis says that finding peace with body image may take the rest of your life. He encourages people with negative body image to change it with their attitude not their body. Davis gives tips on getting started on fixing body image by reading books or getting involved with organizations that help deal with negative body image and eating disorders. He discusses keeping a journal to express how you are feeling or your thoughts, so you can later look at them and see your progress.

I chose this chapter because it had good information on ways to change negative body image. Davis gives plenty of good ideas that helps me build on the solution that I have already came up with. This book let me know that my solutions were a good idea and that I am heading the correct way to find a solution to the whole problem.
