The ultimate guide to building confidence in your body, beauty, clothes and life in an era of toxic social media-driven beauty standards.
 
“A self-confidence bible that every woman should read.”—Caroline Dooner, author of The F*ck It Diet

Empowering, insightful, and psychology-driven, Beyond Beautiful is filled with proven, no-BS strategies for proactive self-care. This stylish and practical handbook takes a deep-dive into all of the factors that make it hard to feel good about yourself, and offers sage answers to tricky questions, like:

• Why do I hate the way I look in pictures?
• How can I stop feeling like a total slob compared to everyone on social media?
• How exactly does this "self-love" thing work?
• How do I find the confidence to use less make up, stop shaving, or wear what I want?
• Is body positivity really the answer?

Illustrated with full-color art, Beyond Beautiful is a much-needed breath of fresh air that will help you live your best life, know your worth, and stop wasting any more precious energy and mental space worrying about the way you look.

Praise for Beyond Beautiful

"Beyond Beautiful is a friendly, fun, and completely practical guide to body image. Filled with easily implemented strategies inspired by the latest research findings, this book is ideal for anyone hoping to cultivate a healthier relationship with their body."
-Renee Engeln, psychology professor at Northwestern University and author of Beauty Sick

"Body shaming, self-esteem, self-confidence, body image... these are words and phrases we hear all the time, but what do they mean? More importantly, what do they mean in your life? Beyond Beautiful not only breaks down the history and terminology of our beauty-centric culture, it also gives you the tools you need--from personal stories to scripts to concrete advice--to think about yourself differently and fight back."
-Cora Harrington, author of In Intimate Detail

"Beyond Beautiful is incredibly empowering. Practical and empathetic, Anuschka Rees thoroughly lays out what's keeping us stuck in body dissatisfaction, how we got here in the first place, and how we can deprogram ourselves from the never-ending cultural beauty expectations. This book is a self-confidence bible that every woman should read."
-Caroline Dooner, author of The F*ck It Diet
