Body Image. I think that is the one thing girls struggle with the most! Even now, at the age of almost 27, I still struggle with it on a monthly if not weekly basis.
I mean, why is it that we ladies feel this ridiculous pressure to fit into this ‘ideal’ look that most of the time isn’t even realistic? I think we need to pay more attention to who we are, what we can offer, and how we can constructively contribute to this world. Instead of focusing on such aesthetic values and judging oursleves on whether or not we fit the “A” Typical mold.
Now I know this is easier said then done! Believe me I still get caught up in it every now and then. I just try and think positively about myself when I am having those dreaded fat/ugly days! Ugggh.
One thing I suggest that always seems to make me feel better about myself, is I take my own inventory…I focus on the great things about me instead of my flaws. i.e. - I love certain parts of my body, fierce eyes, fun shoulders for cute dresses, and of course my rack!
I find that when I do this I enter into a positive mindspace instead of a negative one that is full of criticism and judgment. After all don’t we get this enough from outside sources?
Why not try giving yourself a break and focus on the things that make you a unique stunner! You will soon forget about all the negative things you wish you could change about yourself, and start to realize the attributes you hope never change!
We were all given a beautiful and unique gift - flaws and all – so why not spend your energy loving yourself instead of wasting your energy hating yourself and focusing on the negative.
Pura Vida - means pure life. What’s more pure than a very naked, very honest you!
Peace
