What did you do to make yourself love your body more?
I did all sorts of little things I guess.
I got a tattoo on my wrist that my mom and I designed together and I love it to bits. I plan on eventually getting a full sleeve because why not. I consider myself an artist so having art on my body permanently is a dream come true.
A few days ago a dyed parts of my hair a teal to purple ombre, but since my hair is like a bronze color of blonde it became streaks of like silver to lavender and I'm super happy, especially since I have never dyed my hair before.
I have a bad nail biting problem so I just paint my nails all the time in really pretty colors that dissuade me from chomping on them. I used to hide my hands all the time in high school, but now even if they are bitten when I don't have time to paint them, I'm not really ashamed of them anymore.
FInally pierced my ears about two months back and I'm loving them. I lowkey also want to pierce my tongue.
Exercise is on my list of to do things, but I always get a bad headache. The one thing I really enjoy though is bouldering, but I haven't done that for a while rip. Summer really does make you lazy.
Now it's your turn, anybody modifications, workout plans, or other things you did that made you love your body or yourself more?
Honestly, I really struggle with loving myself. Some days I do, some days I don’t. I have a poor self-image, low self-esteem, and a bundle of other issues. And of course, societal beauty standards are not helping at all. I find myself constantly comparing myself to those who are considered beautiful, and I know it’s not good for me. But I try. ...... reply
piercings & getting my hair done i feel 50% hot. my parents constantly tell me i'm so beautiful and it works for while, but i'm overweight right now. i'm about to start working on my body and skin. once that's clear i know i'll feel great about myself. reply
i started looking myself in the mirror and thinking really hard "damn look how gorgeous i am" even though i didnt believe it at the time, took a while, but i have a decent self-esteem now :) reply
Um, well, I literally just lie to myself. It's like that vine where the person says that they're happy but then says that they are just telling themselves that it's going to be okay. It's sort of like that, but I just laugh at myself and think it's silly to worry about such controversial things like weight and beauty. Until the doctor brings it up ...... reply
Uh weirdly I got into a habit of talking to myself. Well unconsciously, so whenever I feel bad in any way I talk to myself and I talk to myself back. And I have a lot of big stuffies, and so I’d make them hug me and talk to me to make me feel less alone and disgusting, especially when my parents shame me for my body. Idk more psychological stuff ...... reply
This approach may sound weird to you.. but oh well
I just go clothes-free and snuggle up with soft blanket and stuffed animals. That’s how I grow confident and comfortable in my own body and self (≧∀≦) reply
