In a creative integration of spiritual and psychological principles, Rachael shares the hard stories—the real stories—that convince you of this truth. The Body Image Blueprint gives you a chance to work through body image struggles and I made many realizations of lies I didn't even know I believed.I especially love all of the intentional space and time Rachael provides for us to process and pray through each part of the journey with her therapeutic worksheets and exercises.

Teaching videos, prayer, therapeutic coloring activities, discussion questions to pause and pray, Bible verses and biblical truths and therapy activities are all included.

I loved everything about this book, the relatable chapters, the temple truths, thoughts from Rachel as a therapist, the prayers and journal prompts, coloring pages and strong foundation verses. My body image is surely improved and I feel more equipped and empowered than ever to deal with the times I slip back into an unhealthy body image. It also showed me that I can think differently about my body, and not be controlled by fads, culture, or experiences. I love the conceptualizations for the counselor and the strategies of how to navigate those client dynamics effectively.
