However i feel i am getting off topic - what i wanted to write was that by taking less body photos, spending less time looking in the mirror and instead focusing on others things, thinking about other things and doing on other things. It leads to better body confidence as you dont think about how your body looks, you dont care whether your stomach is bloated or not. But also you feel no pressure to look a certain way.
I can also HIGHLY suggest to stop following accounts who post too much bodyspo or post photos that trigger you. I mean why look at things that trigger you or make you feel bad about yourself? Just unfollow them. Get rid of negativity in your life.
So with this message i want you to think about.... do you take body photos? Do you spend a little too much time looking in the mirror and looking at your body? Can you change that? Give it a go... go a week without taking body pictures, without spending alot of time looking in the mirror. Instead maybe do some other nice things like an at home spa or a massage. Or workout without spending the whole time focused on how your body looks, instead focus on how it feels... how do YOU feel when you exercise/workout?
However... i do believe in taking selfies :) Of course not an extreme amount :) But sometimes you just feel super hella awesome, then take that selfie :) Enjoy your smile, share your smile!! But dont focus too much on your body, because you are MORE THAN YOUR BODY.



awesome post!
ReplyDeleteI agree :) I used to struggle a lot with looking in the mirror too much and even if now I don't focus on what my body looks likes so much, I still catch myself seeing if my outfit looks ok, if my hair is fine or if I'm bloated etc. trying to look presentable/ok and wasting a significant amount of time staring at my reflection when I couldve spent it on something more useful and enjoyable. And it really is unnecessary. Of course we should take care of ourselves and all that but it's more about how you feel inside that really makes a difference :) Feeling good in your body is an awesome feeling!!
