Yes i gained some weight. There’s nothing too dramatic about it. I don’t tell you this because someone in my social circle would think it’s a big deal. I’m telling you this, because in fact i have to tell MYSELF that it’s ok! And because i want everyone to know that I’m facing the same issues and insecurities like everyone else.
Don’t get fooled by the fact that i m a yoga teacher, preaching that it s about your inner self and that you are beautiful exactly the way you are. I am still a big learner, when it comes to finding that inner self, that inner peace. My yoga path so far has not yet made me immune to outer, non-important factors such as body-shape, age etc… let’s just call it my EGO 😜
This insecurity has led me to not feeling comfortable in my own body anymore, not wanting to post yoga pics of myself because of the extra kilos and even calling myself not very nice things.
So with this picture i wanna leave my comfort zone and proof myself that in fact yoga DID teach me a little something 🥰
I wanna start being kind to myself again. Embracing that little extra Martina around my belly, my thighs, my bum…🥰
Wanna join? Then go ahead and embrace yourself! And i mean not just when you re in a phase in your life where you’re on a high anyway, thinking you re the best version of yourself.
Embrace yourself when your having kind of a hard time, when there is more shadow than light! And who knows, maybe this is the best version of yourself? 💜
Ending with my yoga sermon again:
You are pretty alright, exactly the way you are, Martina😍🥰😍
P.s. I’m aware that talking about our bodies and the way we feel about it, is so subjective and therefore often controversial, specially on social media! There might be even people feeling offended by my post… please don’t! That is really not my intention.
Let’s just all be kind to one another. Let’s try to all love the hell out of ourselves 💜🦋💜
