In a society where a blemish or “bad hair” can ruin an otherwise perfect day and airbrushed abs dominate the magazine rack, many of us feel ashamed of our bodies. If dissatisfaction with your looks is a distressing preoccupation, this compassionate book offers a way to break free from the mirror. Harvard psychologist Sabine Wilhelm leads you through a step-by-step program that helps you fight the urge to spend hours “fixing” your skin and hair, working out, or shopping for flattering clothes. Reality-check exercises based on cognitive-behavioral therapy demonstrate how to identify unfounded beliefs about your appearance. Once you understand the negative thoughts and feelings that distort your self-image, you’ll be able to shed lengthy grooming rituals and overcome the embarrassment that keeps you from enjoying life. With Dr. Wilhelm’s expert guidance, you’ll learn to replace self-doubt and insecurity with confidence and a positive outlook. Whether you’ve spent thousands on plastic surgery or avoid trips to the beach, dating, or socializing, you owe yourself this opportunity to make peace with your looks. If you or someone you care about is struggling with a body image problem, effective care is finally at hand.

If you're a therapist by this book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 23, 2022

I'm a child therapist and thought I knew something about body dysmorphia. This book took my understanding from understanding from about a 3 to a 9 out of 10. Since reading this book I have discovered and diagnosed aspects of my clients internal dialogues that I never ever would have thought to explore if I had not read this book.

Just finished it!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 26, 2012

Verified Purchase

This book was great! I suggest reading it through, but then re-reading the chapters that are "work". You have some homework in this book which is great to help you get through your body image issues, however, the con I really saw in this book was Sabine's way of labeling you. She teaches you how to move away from that yourself, but she mentions Body Dismorphic Disorder so many times and kind of pushes it on you to make you feel you too have it. Even though yoyu may or may not, it doesn't make you feel any better. I wish she never labeled you with a problem, rather just stated that you struggle with your image. I think she could be a little less clinical, but the book was well written and could be tremendously helpful. Read, then go back.

I'm Impressed!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 11, 2011

Verified Purchase

I just started this book and I haven't completed it yet, I'm extremely impressed already. This book is a powerful resource. It is well written and it works! It was written for us folks with small/large body image dilemmas (mostly non-eating disorders).

It can be used as a self help resource or in conjunction with therapy. It can even be given to your therapist as a resource for them to help you. I struggle with acne scars and I am relieved to find the first pages (and subsequent pages) directly address this issue.

This book gives hope and help. I can't say enough positive about this book. It is life-changing.

God bless the author

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 31, 2014

A book that uses cognitive behavioural therapy as a process to
deal with body imperfections. This volume deals with perceptions
or misperceptions of the troubling areas of appearance and how
we are affected by them in thought and emotion. Steps are given
for identifying problem areas and use of therapy to treat appearance
problems.
