Don't fall into this trap... 🙄
Society wants us to believe that our self worth is tied to the way our body looks. There is a certain beauty standard that we feel shackled to because we are told time and time again that this is the only way to be accepted, to be beautiful, to be healthy.
F**K THAT!
Your body is the least interesting thing about you.
I have met SO MANY people who by all intensive purposes have a "perfect body" according to societal standards... but guess what? They don't have a period, they struggle with eating disorders, they have horrible labs, they struggle with their mental health, they isolate themselves from social events out of fear. Does this sound healthy to you??
Health comes in all shapes and sizes. Good or bad. Never forget this. You absolutely cannot "see health" simply by looking at someone's appearance.
In my opinion, your goals and aspirations, your passions, your career, your experiences, your sense of humor, your body's ability to run a marathon, lift weights, carry children..... are all FAR MORE INTERESTING than ***what your body looks like***
Each one of us has the responsibility to flip this script one day at a time. You are allowed to tell people not to comment on your body. You also have the power NOT to fall into this trap yourself.
I hope this resonated with you, please SHARE to spread the word and help flip this narrative. It's the only way to a more inclusive health space.
