Recently, there has been a growing interest in the study of body image.
However, this concept is not uniformly defined in the literature due to the multiple interpretations that arise from it, resulting from various definitions from varied scientific fields such as neurology, psychology, psychiatry , psychoanalysis, psychomotricity, genetics and the social domain.
The body image < /a>was first considered as the sum of bodily sensations, then as the relationship between different body parts and sensations, suggesting that body image goes beyond the simple addition of body parts. Currently, we favor a dynamic perspective which defends the idea that body image is a constantly evolving construction, shaped by interactions with the outside world.
Based on these benchmarks, each individual constructs their own representation of their body and evaluates it in terms of size, shape of different body parts and appearance.
However, it is important to note that one's body image can be subject to alterations, or even disturbances that are harmful to the person themselves.
If you are experiencing difficulties related to your body image, I am here to help you understand it and find peace with yourself. 💜
