My Body's Superpower The Girls' Guide to Growing Up Healthy During Puberty

In this first-of-its-kind book, family nutrition expert Maryann Jacobsen teaches girls healthy habits through the principles of a positive body image. The result is a win-win: Girls feel better about their changing bodies and are more motivated to make healthy habits part of their everyday life.
Utilizing a fun and relevant Superpower theme, My Body's Superpower helps adolescent girls see their bodies in a positive light. Girls learn what is happening inside the body during puberty (Super Knowledge), how to decode and respond to body signals (Body Talk), and "time travel" when making decisions. The book introduces 9 superpowers based on the research of puberty, nutritional needs, emotional health, sleep, physical activity, intuitive/mindful eating, motivation, media literacy, and body image.
The book teaches girls to:
- Understand physical changes during puberty and give the body what it needs - food, sleep, and activity - to thrive.
- Decode the inner world of feelings, choose the best super friends, and take time to discover more about yourself and what excites you.
- Critically think about media messages and reduce pressure in both the "virtual" and "real" worlds.
My Body's Superpower helps build a foundation for lifelong health during a critical time of development. Meant to guide parents and educate girls (and bring them together), it takes the guesswork out of promoting health to girls going through puberty.
Please note: The paperback version is in black and white and the hardback is in color.
