The Body Project
Ours is a society in which thinness, particularly in women, is idealized, even at the cost of health. Adolescent girls and young women are especially at risk of developing eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder. The need for wide-spread prevention among at-risk populations is paramount, as these disorders are often difficult to treat and can contribute to a range of physical and mental health problems. Studies have found that a cognitive dissonance-based intervention significantly outperforms other intervention programs and is successful in preventing onset of eating disorders. This facilitator guide outlines a two part group intervention progra...
The Body Project
The award-winning author of Fasting Girls explores what teenage girls have lost in this new world of freedom and consumerism—a world in which the body is their primary project. "Fascinating ... riveting ... Women and girls should read this fine book together." —The New York Times Book Review A hundred years ago, women were lacing themselves into corsets and teaching their daughters to do the same. The ideal of the day, however, was inner beauty: a focus on good deeds and a pure heart. Today American women have more social choices and personal freedom than ever before.

The Body Project is an empirically based eating disorder prevention program that offers young women an opportunity to critically consider the costs of pursuing the ultra-thin ideal promoted in the mass media, which improves body acceptance and reduces risk for developing eating disorders. Young women with elevated body dissatisfaction are recruited for group sessions ...

The Bodies Project Volume 2
The Second Volume of The Bodies Project:The Bodies Project is a collaborative photo art project shot over the course of approximately 5 years, and hopefully on a continued basis. The concept is to challenge the idea that fine art is too often made by individuals in a far away place by professional models and shown only in museums and industry outlets. This project sought to create work with individuals in our community and network of friends, acquaintances, fitness and dance family and anyone else who didn't know they were also allowed to make fine art and tell their own story. Blue collar art, done at the highest level, sure seems more interesting. Nudity and implied nudity is the vehicle in hopes that by stripping away style and costuming, each individual can really be seen.
