Body Image and Self Esteem

WHAT IS BODY IMAGE?


Body image is the
perception that a person
has of their physical self
and the thoughts and
feelings that result from
that perception. These
feelings can be positive,
negative or both and are
influenced by individual
and environmental
factors.
What is self esteem?
Self-esteem is your opinion
of yourself. People with
healthy self-esteem like
themselves and value their
achievements. While
everyone lacks confidence
occasionally, people with
low self-esteem feel
unhappy or unsatisfied with
themselves most of the
time.
