Body positive mindset

"You define beauty yourself. Society doesn't define your beauty" - Lady Gaga

Body positivity is more than just a trend; it's a movement towards self-love, acceptance, and empowerment and it is something for EVERYONE!

In a society that often promotes unrealistic beauty standards, but it has improved other the years. But it is essential to cultivate a positive relationship with our bodies. Embracing a body positive mindset means celebrating all body types, sizes, and shapes. It's about recognising the uniqueness and beauty in each and every one of us. 

To start you body positive mindset journey:

Start by challenging negative thoughts about your body

Whenever negative thoughts about your body arise, challenge them with positive affirmations. Remind yourself of your worth beyond your appearance and practice gratitude for all that your body allows you to experience in life.

 

Remember, you are more than good enough just as you are.

Practice self-care and self love

Treat yourself with kindness and compassion. Engage in activities that make you feel good, whether it's taking a relaxing bath, going for a walk in nature, or simply spending time doing something you love.

Surround yourself with positivity 

Surround yourself with people who support and uplift you. Avoid individuals or environments that make you feel bad about yourself. Follow social media accounts that promote body positivity and self-acceptance. Meet up with friends and enjoy yourself.

Remember, your worth is not defined by your appearance; you are so much more than your physical attributes.

Change your focus

Focus on what your body can do. Shift your focus from how your body looks to what it can do. Celebrate your body's strength, resilience, and abilities. Engage in physical activities that make you feel strong and empowered.

By shifting your focus from self-criticism to self-compassion, you can build a strong foundation of self-love and acceptance. Treat yourself with kindness and respect, and embrace the beauty of your individuality. 

Together, let's create a world where everyone feels empowered to love and embrace their bodies, just as they are.

I hope this has helped give you a new perspective on how to view yourself, you are beautiful just as you are. Don't wait to love yourself when you have 'done this' or 'lost that' start now and find out what loving yourself is all about
