Wishing you a healthy, happy 2017.

A great reminder for anyone planning New Year's resolutions this year! As observed by Mayo Clinic experts, "moms are probably the most important influence on a daughter's body image," surpassing the impact of other significant influencers such as media and peers. Given the importance of mothers as body image role models, Dr. Leslie Sim, clinical director of Mayo Clinic's eating disorders program, recommends that they avoid talk about weight, diets, and outer appearances around their daughters.

"Zero comments not only about your daughter's weight, obviously, but zero talk about your weight and even other people's weight," says Sim. Rather than focus on weight, parents can model healthy behaviors for their children such as eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly. It's also important to talk with young girls about natural changes in their bodies, especially as girls approach puberty and may experience normal weight gain during this development period.

To help instill the importance of loving yourself in your Mighty Girl, regardless of your size or shape, we've shared 20 empowering books for children and teens in our blog post, "Celebrating Every Body: 20 Body Image Positive Books for Mighty Girls," at http://www.amightygirl.com/blog?p=10912

For two great books focused on building a positive body image in children, we highly recommend "I Like Myself" for ages 3 to 8 (http://www.amightygirl.com/i-like-myself) and "A Smart Girl's Guide to Liking Herself, Even on the Bad Days" for ages 9 to 12 (http://www.amightygirl.com/a-smart-girl-s-guide-to-liking-herself).

For an excellent guide focused on body image issues for teens 13 and up, check out "The Body Image Workbook for Teens: Activities to Help Girls Develop a Healthy Body Image in an Image-Obsessed World" for ages 13 and up at http://www.amightygirl.com/body-image-workbook

If you have an older Mighty Girl, we recommend books to help girls navigate issues related to puberty, including normal changes in weight and body shape, in our post on "Talking with Tweens and Teens about their Bodies" at http://www.amightygirl.com/blog?p=11090
