When you think about it, it really takes a lot to be beautiful. On the other hand, sexual selection has guaranteed that our ancestors mated with the most beautiful partners they could find! It’s no wonder so much of our culture and media spends so much money and time on all things beautiful. In You Being Beautiful, Doctors Rozien and Oz take the approach that “beauty is as much about your vanity as it is about your humanity.”

You Being Beautiful is a comprehensive, often amusing look at beauty which discusses three levels of beauty. Looking Beautiful is about caring for the physical body–hair, skin and body shape–considering that it is an “instant message” we send to others about ourselves. Feeling beautiful takes a look at how we feel about our bodies and what we can do about such things as chronic pain as well as how our attitudes can keep us from feeling beautiful. Being beautiful is about building better relationships and staying on path that is happy as well as beautiful.

You Being Beautiful is a light-hearted way into a very serious part of our lives. It’s a book to pick up and put down and share with others. Doctors Rozien and Oz dedicate You Being Beautiful “to all who radiate outer beauty because they treasure inner beauty.”
