Satisfaction from Within

For years, author Kelli DeWispelare struggled with body image, an eating disorder, and low self-esteem. As early as preschool, she remembers being uncomfortable in her own body-the beginning of a dark war inside her head that continued until her mid-twenties. DeWispelare wanted to be perfect. And then she found yoga, a practice that empowered and inspired her.

In "Satisfaction from Within," DeWispelare shares a collection of phrases and quotes that have helped her to grow past the negative image with which she was once plagued. Meant to empower, the quotes can guide you as you learn to look beyond the physical body and into the beautiful person who has been there all along.

Using DeWispelare's personal story as well as the inspirational words, "Satisfaction from Within" can help you to gain a healthy level of self-confidence, accept that there is no such thing as "perfect," and move toward finding satisfaction from within. The words you say to yourself and the thoughts you think about yourself are ultimately what you become. Be careful with the thoughts you feed yourself.
