Teaching about Body Image

“I’m too fat,” “I’m too short,” “I hate my hair,” “I’m not big enough.” Everyone has doubts about their bodies and how they look at some time in their life.  This can be especially hard for adolescents and young adults.  Everyone, male and female, is bombarded by messages and images about beauty, attractiveness and sex every day.  Using video, interactive exercises and discussion, this training will explore how body image is affected by various influences, including family, friends, the media and cultural influences.
