Let's talk about the influence of the media environment on the perception of body image. Where does the desired body image come from in our heads? And what to do if it is far from reality? For those who, fortunately, have not encountered the problem of non-acceptance of appearance, we will talk about the influence of the media, social networks, advertising on our perception of body image and appearance, as well as the role of media in shaping the predisposition of girls and women to the development of eating disorder and non-acceptance of themselves. Have you ever noticed that after browsing social media you feel worse? Or, on the contrary, were you motivated to make your appearance/body different (lose weight, go to the gym)? Or maybe you scolded yourself for eating the “wrong” foods? Or did you use applications to improve your appearance in photos? All this may not be a problem, or maybe lead to quite complex problems, including the development of eating disorders and dysmorphophobia (an extreme degree of rejection of parts of one’s body). Not many of us will be familiar with the phrase “body objectification.” And this is not surprising, because the media, marketing and huge cosmetic corporations are not at all profitable! Objectification - the presentation of a woman’s body as an object of observation, to which certain norms and standards are attributed, began a long time ago and seems to us already familiar and unnoticeable. In our environment, the propaganda of objectification of the female body has become invisible. Everywhere we see chiseled bodies and perfect, model-like looks, carefully polished in Photoshop or FaceApp. But how often do we remember that this is not reality? Are you good at distinguishing which photos are corrected and which are real? This is not as simple as it may seem. In answer to the main question - what should I do if my teleological self differs from the real one? Correct settings, be critical of the information space and, if necessary, contact a specialist. I have prepared for you a selection of books on how to accept yourself and stop worrying: 1. “More Than a Body,” Lexi and Lindsey Kite.2. “The Beauty Myth”, Naomi Wolf.3. “Body, food and anxiety. What worries the modern woman”, Yulia Lapina.4. “Imaginary Bodies, Real Entities”, Nicole Schnackenberg.5. "The Anxiety Cure" by Robert Leahy Be mindful of what affects you! I invite you to my Telegram channel and VKontakte group, here you can get to know me better, as well as get help and support. Sincerely, Your Yulia.
