Listen Later

This episode explores the concept of body image and provides research-backed keys to improve how we perceive our bodies. 

Key points include: 

  • Body image is more about our thoughts than our physical bodies. 
  • Personal anecdotes from Jess about her journey from obsessive running to powerlifting. 
  • Defining and differentiating the four types of body image: perceptual, affective, cognitive, and behavioral. 
  • The importance of awareness in recognizing and reframing negative thoughts. 
  • Self-compassion and visualization exercises to foster a healthier body image.
  • Encouraging listeners to respect their bodies as they are and stop waiting for perfection.
