Dr. Christiane Northrup: Healing the Little Girl in YOU!
Luckily, women everywhere now have the perfect resource, Beautiful Girl, which they can use to shore up their little girl’s self-esteem. Beautiful Girl will help mothers—and everyone who wants the best for the little girls in their lives—to imprint a message of beauty and health at the youngest possible age, when they are most impressionable and vulnerable. Beautiful Girl is like an immunization against the inevitable adverse judgment of their bodies that is still a part of growing up female in so many places. And more than that, Beautiful Girl will speak to the little girl in each of us who still needs to know that her body is precious and magical.
I’ve already seen this healing with some important women in my own life. It started the day my 86-year-old mother, Edna, first saw the book. As she read through it, she became very still and said, “I didn’t know any of this when I was a little girl. I wish that something like this had been available to me. It is so beautiful.” A few weeks after that, I found my housekeeper in tears. She had just finished reading Beautiful Girl. And the beauty of the images and the subtlety of the message touched the wounded little girl within her profoundly—like it did for my mom.
I wrote Beautiful Girl, with its inspiring and gorgeous illustrations, as a way to solidify a positive body image in the youngest of girls. Regardless of your age, Beautiful Girl will speak to the little girl inside of you. And it will help make her feel safe, lovely, and beautiful.
