Beschreibung

<b>Your body was never the problem.</b><br><br>This landmark book by activist and poet Sonya Renee Taylor makes the case that body shame isn't a personal flaw—it's a social and political tool used to control us. Radical self-love is the antidote, and this fully updated second edition gives you both the understanding and the practice to build it.<br><br><b>What's inside:</b><br><ul><li>A clear distinction between radical self-love, body positivity, and self-esteem—and why the difference matters</li><li>The roots of body shame: how media, capitalism, and systems of oppression manufacture self-hatred across race, size, gender, disability, and more</li><li>A four-pillar practice framework for moving from shame into sustained self-love</li><li>“Unapologetic agreements”—tools for extending radical self-love into relationships and communities</li><li>New in the second edition: expanded “freedom frameworks” for fighting systemic body terrorism at organizational and societal levels</li></ul><br><b>Who this is for:</b> Anyone who has ever felt their body was “too much” or “not enough”—and especially readers who feel unseen in mainstream wellness conversations, including fat, disabled, Black, and queer communities.<br><br><b>What changes:</b> Readers consistently describe this book as the moment shame stopped feeling like their fault. It's the rare self-love book that is also a social justice framework.<br><br><b>If you're ready to stop apologizing for the body you're in, this is your next read.</b>
