Worth Warrior: help body image im Vergleich zu Body+ Nutzung und Statistiken
‘To hit a target of worth takes practice and courage. Believe you can do it, keep trying and you will get there.’
Worth Warrior is a free app created for young people to manage negative body image, low self-worth, and related early-stage eating difficulties or disorders. Created for teenage mental health charity stem4 by Dr Krause, a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, in collaboration with young people, the app uses principles from the evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for eating disorders (CBT-E).
Like all stem4's award winning apps, it is free, private, anonymous, and safe.
The app provides a range of helpful activities and information, based on the notion that through learning to challenge and change thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and body image issues underlying low self-worth, eating and body related issues can be helped.
By identifying these underlying factors, and monitoring them over time, you can also start to identify what your triggers and maintaining factors are and work towards making positive change.
The ‘Change the Story’ section of the app helps identify negative self thought and learn how to substitute positive self-thoughts. ‘Change the Action’ focuses on identifying negative behaviours and altering them. In ‘Change the Emotion’ users are provided with alternative, self soothing behaviours to manipulate their eating and in ‘Change the way I view my Body’ users are taught how to separate fact from assumption.
There is also a range of information within the app for users to learn more about eating disorders, such as the importance of regular eating and hunger, the health consequences of eating-related behaviours, and issues that maintain eating disorders.
The app also allows users to build a ‘safety net’ of helpful thoughts, behaviours and people to contact, and signposts to help. Finally, users can monitor and keep track of which app activities help, record thoughts and feelings in a journal, and view daily motivators.
We understand the importance of privacy and so no identifiable data is collected in the app and no WIFI access or data is required.
It is built to NHS standards.
Please note that the Worth Warrior app is an aid in treatment but does not replace it.
Worth Warrior is the latest app in stem4’s digital portfolio of apps that use evidence-based principles to help young people manage the symptoms of mental health difficulties and disorders. As of June 2022, stem4’s existing apps (Calm Harm, Clear Fear, Combined Minds and Move Mood) have been downloaded over 3.25 million times, and have received various awards including:
The Digital Leaders 100 Awards ‘Tech for Good Initiative of the Year’ in 2020, for stem4’s full app portfolio
The Health Tech Awards Winner ‘Best Healthcare App of the Year’ in 2021, for Calm Harm

Don't like your body? Want to feel better about your body but find it hard to break your negative feelings about it?
With Body+ you can start improving your body image and body acceptance right now.
THE GG APPROACH
Instead of asking "can I lose 20 pounds" or "how do I lose weight", GG Body takes a different approach: if we improve body image and accept our body, we can then start improving many other aspects of our wellbeing such as mood, depression, anxiety, and obsessions related to our perceived body image.
HOW IT WORKS
Throw away negative thoughts. Approach positive ones. Learn to identify your thoughts and respond quickly. Train daily and improve. The app focuses on positive body, body acceptance, distress, preoccupations with one’s appearance or perceived flaws.
BODY+ FEATURES
- 15 free levels to learn and improve.
- 1 free daily training level.
- 500+ challenges including topics such as body-focused self-esteem, importance of appearance, shame, fear of being judged, the need to look perfect and more.
IS IT FOR ME?
The app was designed for wide range of people. The following sample statements represent some of the thinking we are targeting:
- I am obsessed with my appearance
- I have issues with how I look
- I need to lose weight
- I look weird
- I can't have a relationship until I lose weight
- I suffer because of my looks
- I hate my body
- I hate looking in the mirror
- I have low body confidence
- I don't like a particular part of my body
- I wish I could accept my body
These thoughts represents various body-related beliefs. In GGBI, we target these beliefs, make them more flexible and introduce ways to allow for positive thinking to take over.
RESEARCH AND THEORY BEHIND Body+
According to CBT models, negative thoughts – individuals’ ongoing interpretations of the self, others and the world - maintain psychological difficulties such as obsessive preoccupation, low mood, and maladaptive behaviours.
Body+ was developed in order to provide an accessible CBT training platform that would allow individuals with body related distress and preoccupation to better deal with negative self-talk. The application is designed to:
1. increase individuals’ awareness of negative self-talk.
2. train individuals’ to better identify and challenge negative self-talk.
3. increase individuals’ access to neutral and positive self-talk.
4. increase the automaticity of the above processes.
Training using this application, will allow for gradual, steady learning of more positive thinking, thereby helping to break the vicious thought cycle maintaining appearance related preoccupation.
