The Body Myth

                            Adult Women and the Pressure to Be Perfect

 

 

Welcome!

The Body Myth is a groundbreaking look at mature, adult women who struggle with eating disorders and other body issues.

Learn what "The Body Myth" is.

In the relatively short history of eating and body image disorders treatment, the overwhelming majority of patients have been teenage girls and young women. But now, clinical psychologists like Dr. Margo Maine are treating increasing numbers of women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond suffering  from disordered eating or the  preoccupation with achieving a perfect  body.

This unique, jargon-free guide helps women and their loved ones understand these obsessions, what lies behind them, and how to overcome them!

"A must read. This book says what so many women are feeling but don't dare say, and offers responsible guidance and help for those who don't dare ask. The Body Myth puts it all on the table with incredible intelligence, compassion, and support."

Lynn Griefe, CEO, National Eating Disorders Association
