Body image work isn’t always about learning how to love what your body looks like. Actually, surprise, it’s rarely about learning how to love what your body looks like. .
.
A huge part of body image work is learning how to respect your body no matter what it looks like. And hey, if you end up being able to look at yourself and say, “Hey, you look 🔥🔥💯!” then hell yea, you get bonus points. .
.
Respecting your body is about listening to your body and treating it with kindness, even on the days you don’t like it very much. When we feel respected, a higher level of safety opens up. When we feel safe, we are more able to express our needs. And when we can express our needs well... we have the opportunity to get our needs met. .

Body respect opens up the ability for us to get our needs met; needs like food and rest and also needs like love and belonging. .

.
I mean, I’d be lying if I said everyday I look in the mirror I yell back words of affirmation describing how much I love every curve I see. But you better believe everyday I look at myself and say, “You deserve to be treated well today.” Disrespect and love can’t coexist. This is where the body image work starts; because the longer we spend disrespecting ourselves the longer we will spend at war with our worth.
