Most people don’t like what they see in the mirror.

Is this true for you?

Take yourself back to your childhood Fairy Tales

In Snow White, the witch says “Mirror Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?” She wants to be the most beautiful person in the world.

Every time we look into the mirror we are making comparisons, hoping that what we see reflected back will measure up to some hypothetical standard of perfection – beauty, talent, wit, charm, strength…but like the witch, we too are usually disappointed, and we imagine the rest of the world is equally disappointed in what they see when they look at us.

Love the skin you’re in

Being happy and confident doesn’t mean that everything (and that includes your body) is perfect. Our bodies were designed to function, so think of all the amazing ways your body has been good to you. Celebrate daily how incredible you are and be grateful that you have a healthy, working body!

Embrace your uniqueness         

When you feel envious of what someone else has, be it long legs, a flat tummy or toned arms, you are creating negative feelings around your own appearance, which crushes confidence and mood.

Rather than use negative language to describe your body and the areas you dislike, pin point the bits you’re happy with.

Silence your inner critic and the positive feelings will soon overtake the bad.

Confidence is contagious so banish body shaming and surround yourself with positive people who make you feel good.

HOW OTHERS SEE YOU IS NOT IMPORTANT,

HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF MEANS EVERYTHING
