I never understood why people have to point out the obvious.

Yes I do have facial hair and I know it can be noticeable. I would be lying if that anon commenting about my “mustache” didn’t affect me. I spent over 30 minutes about removal. It is something I’m self conscious about. Then I realized, who is that anon to cause all this self-doubt and insecurity?

I’ve been improving my self image and accepting my body over the past couple of years. The prenatal vitamins (recommended by my OBGYN) cause a bit more growth to my facial hair. However, mentally I am better and I am more confident in myself. I switched back to the regular vitamins and am still feeling as good as before.

In the end of the day, I love myself.

It's Been a Long Time Coming, But I Finally Have a Positive Body Image

'Too Fat, Too Skinny, Too Short, Too Tall, Too Anything.' There's a sense that we're all 'TOO' something, and we're all not enough. This is Life. Our bodies change. Our minds change. Our hearts change." -Emma Stone

2 days later, and I'm still gushing over what my nephew said to me 🥰

Context: I had breakfast with the entire family on Sunday, and the subject of body fat was brought up. I mentioned I was fat because I just love food that much, and my nephew said "You're not fat, you're full of love". Not an excuse to not lose weight, but it made me so happy 🥹💖

Building A Healthy Body Image

Body image is the combination of how someone perceives their body and their thoughts about it. Positive body image is linked to satisfaction with one’s appearance, whereas negative body image is linked to dissatisfaction.

What Leads To A Negative Body Image In People?

Negative body image involves feeling bad about yourself or beating yourself up over your appearance. A negative body image can mean being extremely harsh and judgmental of yourself to such an extent that you begin to accept a voice within, which in turn affects the way you view your value and worth as a person.

Having a poor body image can cause dieting, which can result in disordered eating and a variety of harmful health effects. Of course, not all dieting results in eating disorders, but a lot of research has indicated that it can.

Particularly if body image concerns have resulted in disordered eating, body image difficulties can potentially cause mental health issues. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, there is a connection between eating disorders, anxiety, and sadness. Your general quality of life may be affected if you have a negative body image. According to a 2016 study by Nayir et al., people’s quality of life was strongly correlated with their perception of their bodies.

Social media can have a significant impact on a person’s self-perception and body image.

Social media influences how many people view beauty and attractiveness. If their bodies don’t mirror what they see online, people may negatively evaluate themselves as a result of social media.

Having said that, it is important to build a positive body image for the betterment of our physical and emotional health. You can start building a positive body image by:

1. Accepting the way you look:

This is hard, but it’s helpful to try and separate our bodies from our worth.

Recognize that no one is perfect. Even those with seemingly ideal bodies have “flaws”. So, instead of seeing your body as you would like it to be, accept it as it is. If you need to, unfollowing social media accounts that provoke your emotions and starting to follow pages that promote body acceptance.

Avoid body-shaming language. Whenever you find yourself body-shaming yourself, stop and think, “Would I act in this manner toward my best friend?” Be kind to yourself like you would a good friend.

2. Following activities to build a positive sense of body: For some people, body positivity won’t come naturally, and that’s okay! You can try one of the following activities to build it:

List five positive traits about your personality first, then five positive traits about your physical appearance.

Notice how your body does so much without looking a certain way. Appreciating the functionality our bodies provide can be so helpful.

3. Taking care of your body: Taking good care of your body can make you feel better about it. Start caring for yourself with these tips:

Eat nutritious foods. Find out which foods are healthy for you and how much is enough. When you eat, savor every bite. Enjoy and truly taste your food.

Get a good night’s sleep. Get to bed on time and learn how much sleep you need for your age. To get a good night’s sleep, turn off screens several hours before bed.

Daily exercise is beneficial. In order to be strong, fit, and healthy, your body must move. Take part in a sport to stay active. You can also dance, walk, exercise, practice yoga, or run. Pick fun activities that you enjoy doing.

Maintain body weight that works best for you! Avoid comparing your weight to that of others. You can learn your ideal weight from your doctor. Don’t attempt to alter your diet on your own if you are not at a healthy weight. Always consult a parent or a physician first. Your doctor can make recommendations on how to get to and maintain your ideal weight.

Self-esteem or body image issues might occasionally be too much for one person to handle. Your self-esteem may be impacted by health problems, sadness, or trauma. Additionally, eating disorders might contribute to a falsely negative body image.

Inform your parents, your doctor, or your therapist of your struggles. Seek help, there is nothing wrong with needing help. With support and consideration, body image and self-esteem can improve.

Strategies for promoting a Healthy Self-Image and Body Positivity | Solh Wellness

How we see ourselves is what is sometimes referred to as our internal lexicon. It enumerates our benefits and drawbacks and represents us as a whole. Learning leads to the development of one's self-image, which is influenced by early interactions with parents and other primary carers. Our opinions of ourselves, our interactions with others, and the relationships we form are all reflected back to us by our self-image, which serves as a kind of mirror. It is possible for the reflections we see to be true or distorted, which can result in the growth of a positive or negative self-image. A positive self-image allows one to accept and own their strengths while also being realistic about their flaws and limitations, as opposed to a negative self-image, which emphasises one's flaws and weaknesses and distorts people's failures and blemishes. A positive self-image allows one to acknowledge and own their strengths while also being truthful about their problems.

How to Improve Your Self-Image

Self-image formation is a dynamic process that is always changing. Some steps you can take to cultivate a positive self-image are as follows:

To determine the elements that affect our capacity to create either a positive or negative self-image, a self-image inventory can be employed.

Developing a positive self-image will surely benefit from making a list of all your strengths. Having a positive self-image is undoubtedly helped by understanding our personal abilities.

Create for yourself measurable, attainable goals and objectives.

Face the distortions in your mind. A distortion is a method of thinking that impairs a person's ability to distinguish between good and wrong. Therefore, it is essential to confront one distortion in order to establish a positive self-image.

Finding and analysing the effects of labels on children: Early experiences are crucial for the development of a positive self-image, thus tracking down and analysing the consequences of early labels is crucial.

Do not evaluate yourself against others. People enjoy comparing themselves to others in relation to anything, thus refraining from doing so is crucial if you want to cultivate a positive self-image.

The most crucial thing is to establish a positive self-image by learning to love oneself first before learning to love others.

Encourage yourself since doing so can help you grow to have a positive self-image.

Keep in mind that you are special. Since everyone is different, they all have a different idea of who they are.

While we are primarily preoccupied with our bodies, society, the influence of family, and peer groups all have an affect on how our bodies are seen. Body image is only a component of self-image. Additionally, as we become older, our perceptions of our bodies shift.

How to Improve Your Body Image 

Evaluating one's body image, taking into account both its benefits and drawbacks. Every individual has a different body. It's important to make an ongoing effort to get to know your body and be honest about your capabilities and limitations.

Affirmations that are good for you might make you more comfortable with your body. Use them on yourself and treat it like a buddy.

The most important step is to embrace your unique self. The most important thing is to embrace and accept your body.

Face the misconceptions others may have about the way your body looks. Respect your body and challenge misunderstandings about it.
