Advanced Praise for The Body Joyful
“Anyone who has suffered from endless failed weight loss programs should read the Body Joyful and follow Poirier’s simple roadmap to better health, improved self-esteem, enjoyment of real food and body freedom.”
Christian Mickelsen
Founder & CEO Coaches With Clients
“For anyone who cringes at the words, weight loss, eating disorder or body shame, reading Body Joyful will prove a welcome sigh of relief that someone finally gets you. Anne Poirier selflessly shares her dysfunctional journey with weight and body image, giving you permission and tools to break up your own relationship that isn’t working. I am excited to use this book as a tool in my psychotherapy practice”
Dr. Zoe Shaw

“The Body Joyful is exactly what the doctor ordered to combat the lies that we as women feed ourselves. Whether these lies have come from diet culture or your past “seeds” as Anne calls them, she speaks directly to your soul. As someone who has struggled with body image and a poor relationship with food, this book was for me. Anne is relatable, clever, and honest. I literally didn’t want to stop reading and I have a feeling whomever reads this book won’t want to stop either. Thank you Anne for sharing this gem with the world!”

“To be understood for your most painful experiences is a great gift. Anne Poirier shares the details of her history of disordered eating and her path to healing in such an honest way, that those who have had a similar experience will find themselves in these pages. Her vulnerable, self-revealing book takes you down the path of “unlearning” the rules of diet culture, finding self-compassion, and ultimately gives you the hope of a future that embraces the freedom and trust that comes with Intuitive Eating.”

More Praise for The Body Joyful
Here is just a short sample of what people are saying about one of the most anticipated women empowerment, self-help books of 2021 from experts who have gotten their hands on an advanced preview copy of the book.
“Sometimes reading someone else’s story can be a great illuminator to the struggles that we are facing internally. Anne Poirier’s book, The Body Joyful, does just that. A helpful book for someone who wants to start their Body Positive journey with the added bonus of interesting reflection questions to round up the chapters.”
Connie Sobczak
Co-Founder & Executive Director of The Body Positive
Author of Embody: Learning to Love Your Unique Body (and quiet that critical voice)
“The key to flourishing – regardless of your current weight or size – is to feel joy. Every system in the female body works best in this state – including the endocrine system, the immune system, and the central nervous system. The problem is that society has tried to put women in an actual or imagined “corset” of ideals that few women can attain. This leads to a lifetime of dieting, self-denial, and self-abnegation that can go on for decades. But you can break out of that corset in a heartbeat. Annie Poirier lays out the path in The Body Joyful.”
