Description
Alice Liveing's powerful memoir offers a life-affirming message for any woman who has struggled to love her body. Having built a reputation as the UK's leading personal trainer, Alice's life was being controlled by disordered eating and an addiction to exercise. In "Give Me Strength", she shares her story, revealing the journey that led to her darkest moments and how she overcame those demons to find true health and happiness.
Through her story, Alice shares her four questions she asks herself before working out: Why, What, When and How. She shows how we can all move in a way that prioritises how we feel over how we look, and how ditching the idea that being thinner will make us happier can be a liberating experience.
This honest and inspiring book is a worthwhile read for anyone who has ever felt the pressure to conform to societal beauty standards. With its powerful message and relatable story, "Give Me Strength" is a book that will resonate with anyone who has struggled with body image issues or disordered eating.
