Embrace Your Body Insecurities: Be Vulnerable, Accept And Self-Reflect

Have you ever felt misjudged? Do you always seek outside validation because of the way you look physically?

There are days when you will feel good about who you are but the bad days often back you into a corner. There are days when you feel like no part of your body is beautiful or worthy enough to receive absolute adoration.

We all have body insecurities and at some point in our lives, we all go through that very insecure place with ourselves and what we look like. These insecurities may stem from our culture, societal expectations and perhaps even our childhood and how we were conditioned to look at ourselves. Often this perception of ourselves is created by those who are closest to us such as our friends and family.

As we grow older, these insecurities grow further by how society defines the narrative of beauty, at times, specially for women. We are told to look and act a certain way to appease the world and especially to be perceived as more attractive to the opposite gender.

Often our weight is a huge topic of discussion, we are told to eat less or in some cases to eat more. People often feel like it is appropriate to tell us what to wear, so that we may feel validated and accepted.
