A Guide for Black and Brown Tween and Teen Girls to Being Healthy and Happy, Just as They Are
Glow & Grow helps girls and young women develop self-love and holistic wellness. Pervasive messages about what it means to be healthy are everywhere. While positive messaging does exist, nonrepresentational images and culturally insensitive advice is prevalent for Black and Brown girls and young women. This book provides messaging just for them about how to prioritize and maintain their own holistic well-being as they grow. Written by a biracial nutritionist and teacher, this book includes interviews with successful Black and Brown women working in wellness spaces.
Readers will learn to practice body confidence, advocate for themselves and their wellness, intentionally pursue joy, and improve their mental and physical fitness. Author Rachel Werner also helps teens explore their relationship with food and their food culture, sharing easy, affordable plant-based recipes. This book is a welcome departure from the all-too-common wellness messages where whiteness is the default.
- Offers culturally sensitive, representational advice on self-love and holistic health
