Becoming Journals are guided reflection tools created to support teens navigating body image distress and recovery.
- They are not about fixing your body, they are about reconnecting with it, rebuilding trust, and exploring identity beyond appearance or performance.
- Becoming Journals are used independently or included in recovery kits created through the Becoming Initiative.
What You’ll Find Inside
Identity Beyond Appearance
Prompts that help shift focus away from how the body looks or performs.
- Who am I when no one is watching?
- Three things that define me outside of how I look or perform
Recovery & Self-Trust
Prompts that encourage listening to and respecting the body.
- What does listening to my body look like today?
- Something my body needs that I often ignore
Compassion & Reframing
Prompts that challenge self-criticism and build kindness.
- If I spoke to myself the way I speak to others…
- A belief about my body I’m learning to let go of…
