The CD will serve as a mainstay of support for women everywhere who are re-defininng themselves, loving themselves back to health, and learning to find beauty within.

A Waist is a Terrible Thing to Mind - A Wake Up Call
Stories from the Real Women website compiled into a compelling anthology. A call to action, to mindfulness, and to the re-creation of a life-affirming and holistic definition of beauty.

"Bravo to the women brave enough to share their stories in this book. Doing so invites all of us to similarly share the experiences about our bodies. By telling our stories, we can unmask the damaging and unattainable images of beauty. Together, we can and must reject such a narrow definition of what is beautiful. We must challenge any definition of beauty that does not include ourselves not only because self-love and self-acceptance are fundamental to health and well-being, but simply because we deserve to enjoy and love our bodies unconditionally and to feel good about ourselves just as we are."

The Videotapes (out of stock) - " The Beauty You've Always Been" (from the "Real Women- Real Beauty" CD by Deborah Liv Johnson), "Just Me" and " Invisible Hero" (from the "Time for Us Now CD") are short videos produced by photographer Jan Phillips. These are moving and celebratory testaments to the beauty and power of women of all sizes, ages and heritage. These videos are extremely powerful and useful as opening and closing segments for workshops.

Millennium Calendar - The Millennium Calendar was a celebration of the diversity and beauty of women. It features striking photographs of the Real Women sculpture series and a corresponding poem for each woman and each month of the Year 2000.

Participants Workbook - The workbook offers exercises and suggestions inviting introspections and facilitated group discussions. The tools help clarify and develop awareness about the direct correlation between self-image and health. The workbook was designed to be used in conjunction with workshops. Each individual can add to it or choose from materials the RWP has developed. The workbook can be used on its own, with the images of the sculptures, the CD's and the book.
