5 Steps to Body Confidence


We are our own worst critic – which explains why so many women have a low body image. The thing is, unless you learn to love every part of your body, you'd never truly be happy. So the next time you feel like the unsexiest woman alive, stem those negative thoughts by practicing these key traits that body-confident women share:

1. Compliment yourself

Learn to praise yourself. Most of us tend to be so obsessed with our flaws that we often forget to be thankful for our gifts and blessings. Body-confident women, on the other hand, count their blessings instead of dwelling on what they don't have. So take the time to remind yourself of everything you have going for you. Think of all the ways you are luckier than others instead of focusing on negative thoughts.

2. Don't compare yourself with anyone else

Many of us fall into the trap of comparing ourselves with incredibly beautiful celebrities and super-skinny models. But the sad truth is, once you start comparing, it's a definite lose-lose situation: There will always be someone prettier, younger and slimmer who comes along. (When will competition ever end?) Instead of trying to morph yourself into the standardized beauty (read: boring) that society imposes on us, put your energy into being the best you can. After all, individuality is beautiful.

3. Pamper youself

Women who feel wonderful in their own skin love lavishing some TLC on themselves. Try to do something special for yourself every week, which can be anything from getting your nails done, coloring your hair, going for a massage spa, or even soaking in an aromatherapeutic hot bath. When you regularly give your body pampering treats head-to-toe, you'll look better and feel better about yourself.

4. Know that perfection is not happiness

Media has us thinking that perfection can buy us happiness. Even though deep in our hearts we know better, many women go on to develop eating disorders and get addicted to plastic surgery in the name of seeking perfection. These lies are misleading: Dress size doesn't correlate to confidence and physical beauty doesn't guarantee happiness. So stop aiming for unrealistic perfection; what's more important is how you feel about yourself. When you go easier on yourself, life can be more fulfilling and positive. Even if you want to make changes for the better, you'll feel happier doing it.

5. Live life to the fullest

If you're burdened by worries about your weight, you'll only be missing out on so many great things in life. Body-confident women have the energy to lead a richer, more meaningful life because they're not going to let weight problems distract them from living their lives to the fullest.
