Self Love & Body Positivity: How To Love YOURSelf Unapologetically-Self Love Boudoir- Raleigh NC
HEY GIRL, HEY!!
It’s a new year and it’s time to start loving yourself unapologetically. As a woman, self-love and body positivity are essential for our mental, physical, and emotional well-being. So how do we go about developing a positive relationship with ourselves and our bodies? Let’s explore the importance of self-love and body positivity! These are powerful tools that can have a positive impact on your life.
Defining self love and body positivity
Self-love is a hella important concept for women as it centers around loving and embracing oneself for who they are, regardless of external influences or opinions. It’s this idea of looking in the mirror and recognizing your inner beauty. Self-love is all about having confidence, appreciation and acceptance of who you are, while celebrating the unique features that make you special.
Body positivity is the process of accepting and respecting one’s body in its natural form, without dependence on external standards of beauty. It’s the practice of embracing your unique body type, understanding that everyone’s body is different and that everybody deserves to be respected and celebrated. If you choose (heavy on the choosing part) to accept and embrace your body, you can start to build a positive relationship with yourself. I want to see you develop a sense of pride and appreciation for yourself while inspiring others to do the same. Sis, this is the whole goal!
Take Steps to start loving yourself unapologetically
Ladies! It’s time to take the journey toward unapologetic self-love. Here are a few steps you can take that will help get you on the path to true self-acceptance.
Arguably the most important step in loving yourself, you have to practice positive self-talk. This means replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations. Start by writing down all the things you love about yourself and say these affirmations aloud every day. You can also create mantras like “I am worthy of love and happiness”, “I have the strength to face any challenge”, or a simple “I am THAT bitch.”. Each time you replace a negative thought with a positive one, it will become easier and eventually, it will become second nature. PRO TIP: If this feels too hard, try just stopping the negative thought altogether, we can add the positive thoughts later!
