Body image is one big concern that is all over the place these days. It doesn\u2019t help that social media is feeding us all this standard of a healthy and sexy body. And for us who can\u2019t keep up with what society dictates, we harbor displeasure over our body further pushing us down into the pit of unhappiness and anxiety. All we think of is ourselves and what we think other people think about us. We fear the thought of what might be even if it is just imagined and not holding a bit of reality. Fear thoughts surround us and scarcity mentality overpowers us. Yes, when you have body hatred, your mind is clouded with all these negativity and prevents you from celebrating who you truly are.\xa0 For as long as you implement great healthy habits everyday and feed your body with what is nutritionally essential, that is one good reason to be elated about. Who is to say that it is not the perfect body size for you? You don\u2019t have to go on a strict diet that when you fail at it, unhappiness consumes you. Thus, making people around you unhappy, too. Why be so hard at yourself when you have the choice to channel your energy on the more important things in life? Look at it this way, maybe you have the body that you are having now because it is specially meant to carry the purpose for which you are meant to do. And we have to remember that when we die and someone looks at us inside the casket, they won\u2019t say, \u2019 oh wow she always has that sexy body\u2019. Instead, they would remember us for how fantastic we made them feel and how much difference we make in other people\u2019s lives. It\u2019s all about changing perspective. A mindset shift always does the trick. \u201cBody image is one of the hardest and slowest mindsets to recreate but with constant effort and due diligence, I would say that it's 100% possible.\u201d\xa0
