3 ways to deal with body shamers

“You are beautiful in your own way” shouldn’t just be a cliché term that we hear but rather a way of living that encourages us to love ourselves no matter what the world thinks or says. The sad truth is many of us have been body-shamed at least once in our lifetime, perhaps even by your closest friends, colleagues or even the world as a whole. Body shaming has a way of negatively affecting our self esteems and has been known to lead to mental and eating disorders that ultimately lead to more serious repercussions.
