10 Steps to Build a Healthier Body Image for Yourself

1. Embrace your body as it is:

Practice acceptance for your body today

2. Focus on the positives:

Turning your focus to the positive helps you to find more things to be positive about.

3. Practice positive self talk:

The way you talk to yourself shapes the way you feel about.

4. Remember that body standards change over time:

Beauty standards are constantly evolving, don’t stick to it.

5. Work on health goals rather than weight management:

Instead of dieting or obsessing over your weight, instead set reasonable health goals.

6. Less judgment, more kindness:

If we all stopped judging one another and ourselves, and if we all started being consciously kinder to one another and to ourselves, this world would be a very different place.

7. Be aware of how you speak:

In terms of how you speak to others and to yourself

8. Make healthy choices:

Find a healthy balance so that you can enjoy your life.

9. Choose to treat yourself with respect:

If you don’t then who will?!

When you see your value and you make the effort to treat yourself respectfully, you will build a more positive relationship with yourself.

10. Get support:

From a friend or family member or, if you’re struggling with your body image.
