Summary

Aric Sigman: Perfect body - happy life?

How do we destroy happiness by the desire for a perfect body

 

How to be happy in an imperfect body? How to reduce dissatisfaction with one's own appearance and why changing one's body will not change one's life? How to change the criteria that dictate the imperative of body perfection? How do the media, pharmaceutical and fashion industries encourage our dissatisfaction with our own bodies? Is it true that "being slim means being healthy"? Why are casting directors, producers, directors, fashion and photo editors, fitness trainers the "little gods" of our appearance?

The author also wonders if the pursuit of a slim body is basically a reflection of the unfulfilled spiritual needs of our society, in which dissatisfaction with one's own appearance masks a deeper desire for a sense of purpose, which was once provided by religion? Dissatisfaction with one's own body is, in part, an expression of numerous fears today and the rapid changes we constantly face, and striving for a better figure for many is like a religion based on the mistaken belief that we are happy, healthy and attractive only if we are thin.

How to protect children from pressures related to their own body image?

Why do teenagers change their ideas about their bodies?

How does the cult of thinness affect female self-confidence?

Who profits? on our dissatisfaction with our own appearance?

Under the omnipresent influence of the media, generations are growing up who base their lives on the misconception that a perfect body and physical attractiveness are a guarantee for a happy life. This is a misconception that Sigman so successfully dispels in this book.

Dr. Aleksandra Buber, psychiatrist and psychotherapist
