How Unrealistic Body Standards Are; Activities That Have Improved People's Body Image

What is body image?

Body image is all about the way we view ourselves. It's our own opinion of how we look. Our body image does not always match up to the reality of what we actually look like. Some people have negative body image, which means they have a negative perception of their appearance. This can have a damaging effect on someone, both physically and mentally. It's important that we build up a positive body image to benefit both our mental and physical health.
