We live in a world where admiring others is upfront and personal, we see the best of others through their Instagram feed and frown upon ourselves for being less than perfect, less admirable, less beautiful… just less.
So, loving the body you have right now? Really? How do you love and embrace the “warts and all” when all you can see (and feel!) is the disappointing result of too much comfort food?
Recent studies have shown that women are desperate to stop feeling self-conscious about their bodies. Here’s the thing, you are one of seven billion perfectly imperfect humans and it’s time to see your body as beautiful and valuable, right now! Channel the awesome attitudes of actresses like Melissa McCarthy and Chrissy Metz.
Even Megan Trainor’s catchy tune All About That Bass celebrates women of all shapes with lyrics like “Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top.”
Self-acceptance is liberating.
“There’s nothing more rare, nor more beautiful, than a woman being unapologetically herself; comfortable in her perfect imperfection. To me, that is the true essence of beauty” – Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience.
