Hello everybody with concerns ever growing over the spread of this virus our head office is suggesting we alter our current working status.As you heard, the government is asking all non-essential businesses to restrict operations to reduce contact with customers and clients.
We feel the service we provide to our clients is essential to maintain positive guidance through your weight loss journey.
What we have decided to do is maintain contact electronically either by phone or email rather than face to face.We will evaluate a timeline to reopen by next Friday.
In the meantime when you need to purchase more product just give me a call and I will personally deliver them to you if need be.

And I said to my body, softly, "I want to be your friend." It took a long breath and replied, "I have been waiting my whole life for this." Nayyirah Waheed

Body confidence is something that can be very difficult to achieve, especially if you are focusing solely on your fitness level, clothing size, or comparing yourself to others.

You don’t have to look the way society deems desirable to radiate confidence and self love. Confidence is more closely related to how you think rather than how you look. Therefore, body confidence is a matter of mindset rather than your physical size.

Here are a few tips to help you improve your inner dialogue, boost your body confidence, and embrace your shape:

Look beyond the cover! Instead of focusing on your physical appearance, take a minute to acknowledge the qualities and strengths that you possess. When you notice yourself entertaining negative self talk remind yourself of all of your admirable qualities instead of your perceived flaws. Do you have a calming presence? Do you make others laugh? Are you a leader? Are you a good listener? Celebrate your strengths rather than obsessing over body size and your confidence will soar.

Make friends with your reflection! Have you ever taken an honest look at your naked appearance? What do you love about your physique and which features make you feel proud? Instead of focusing on perceived flaws celebrate your unique beauty without judgement or hostility. It is perfectly okay to aspire to achieve a healthier body shape but don’t forget to assess whether your goals are realistic. Are you idolizing unrealistic beauty standards promoted in the media? Keep in mind that weight loss does not guarantee body acceptance or happiness. “Hating your body won’t make you thin, and being thin won’t make you stop hating your body.”

Embrace your shape! Not every fashion trend will flatter your body type. Study what looks good on your body size and shape and invest in quality clothing that makes you feel incredible. The wrong clothing can accentuate the parts of your body that you're self-conscious about. Taking the time to identify the styles that flatter your shape will ensure that you feel fabulous at any event (and at any size!).
