The Deadly Barbie Doll Disorder?
Did you play with Barbie dolls as a little girl? Or let your children play with them?
If so, it may have taken a toll on your body image and self-esteem.
You see, a study published in the journal Body Image (The Barbie Doll Disorder), three researchers asked 112 girls to play with a thin doll (a “Barbie”) and a full-figured doll.
The researchers discovered that girls tended to desire a body shape more closely aligned to the dolls with which they played.
And Barbie is unnaturally thin. If she was a real woman, she’d be 5’9″, under 120lbs and have body fat so low she would not menstruate or bear children.
This is beyond sad.
The event goes deep into everything women need to be healthy on every level … emotional healing and self-care… to chronic disease prevention… hormones… pregnancy… finances… career… empowerment and so much more.

P.S. Several of the talks address body image issues, weight and eating disorders — major concerns for women of all ages.
As was learned from the Barbie research, this negative programming starts so early!
Sadly, a separate study found that by the time women reach ages 18 to 25, OVER HALF say they’d rather be run over by a truck than to be overweight.
If that isn’t heartbreaking, I don’t know what is.
Thankfully, those who gathered to create 50 Ways to Women’s Wellness are DOING something about it, by helping women take their power back.
