What if the negative body image you have is not trying to torment you but is actually trying to communicate with you? Embark on a transformative journey with the book Body Image Inside Out, where your body image is not an enemy but a guide towards greater understanding and internal alignment. Created by executive coach Whitney Otto and therapist Deb Schachter, this groundbreaking "inside-out" approach invites you to explore - not ignore - the messages your body image is sending.

Body Image Inside Out teaches you to become more adept at listening to, interpreting, and responding to your body image thoughts, so as to develop a more constructive and connected relationship with your body. Think of it as couple therapy for you and your body image.

Combining Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and attachment theory, this process teaches you how to: understand and change habitual thoughts and behaviors about your body image, decode what you truly want from the "fix my body" agenda, use jealousy as a teacher rather than a tormentor, recognize which relationships trigger negative body image and how to react differently, and prepare for the bad body image days so, when they arise, you can connect and support rather than hate and ignore.

Based on the popular BodySelf workshop series and highlighting a variety of client stories and bodies, each chapter includes teachings, personal journaling questions, and innovative exercises to personalize your journey to a kinder and more collaborative way of relating to your body image.

Through playful and humorous approaches, Whitney and Deb guide you to explore a new approach to body image restoration, offering everyone, in every body, the opportunity to translate their body image's unique language.
