We tend to focus on parts of our body that we dislike, physical features we would alter, and often compare ourselves to others. How did our perception of ourselves become so distorted? What would it be like if we embraced who we are? It’s time to learn how to love and accept the person we are. This presentation is designed to give you the facts about body image, help you recognize your self-perception, and empower you to celebrate your body!Hosted by: University Recreation and WellnessAdditional Information can be found at: https://getinvolved.fgcu.edu/event/11522911
