beauty standards are overrated… There’s more to life than trying to be “pretty”, “toned”, “body goals”, “that girl” or liked by others. Instead, what I want to be is KIND to myself & others, CONFIDENT in my skin & abilities, and unapologetically ME; my soft, messy, imperfect, true self. So after years of putting myself down, struggling with body image & seeking validation from others, I choose to tell myself I am already good enough… & I carry out my every day life as if that is so. I’ve started showing up as the realest version of myself & not the Instagram-version that I’ve always felt I had to be, I began romanticising my daily tasks, being my own cheerleader, opting out of comparison, wearing the clothes I never believed I could wear, moving my body for nourishment instead of punishment & saying yes to invitations & things I never would’ve before. Beauty doesn’t have anything to do with the way the world perceives you. Confidence doesn’t come from their opinion of you. Let them think what they think. What matters is what YOU see. Your body is your home. You can decorate it however you like, and if you think it’s beautiful, that’s all that matters. But at the end of the day, it’s the stuff on the inside that counts & shines through. “Self love” isn’t linear, some days we’ll feel bleh & other days great, but being a little more mindful of the messages you consume & the way you speak to yourself everyday goes a long way. To remind you not to compare your life or your body to someone on the internet, to encourage you to be a little gentler with yourself as we go into a new week & to give you some examples of HOW you might be able to do that.

Recently, I've decided to be a Minimalist, no more extra things, one piece of any thing would work, and yes it worked! I discovered that we have many extra things that we don't need, same as people in our life, the less the better
