Bethany C. Meyers has a short definition of body neutrality that goes something like this: some days we love our body, some days we hate our body, but every day, we respect our body - the body neutral stance is to acknowledge the feelings we have, question why those feelings may have shown up for us in the first place, and then reconnect with our self-worth. Meyers' own exploration, enriched by interviews with experts and activists in the field, will help readers reclaim the idea of "neutral" and show that you are more than your body, and you can still care for it while not having it dictate your worth.
