It’s good to be aware of how you view yourself, body image is how we see ourselves, having a negative or distorted body image can cause some serious problems if left unchallenged. Being overly critical can lead to you feeling self conscious about the smallest perceived imperfections, things other people wouldn’t even notice are blown out of proportion until they become an obsession, a source of unnecessary anxiety.
With body shaming posts asking if you’re “beach body ready” already appearing on social media do you feel beach body ready? If you’re on a beach and you have a body you are beach body ready! No matter what your shape or size, why not try loving the skin you are in imperfections and all.
Are you a perfectionist or overly critical of yourself? You could be experiencing a distorted body image. Other symptoms of an unhealthy or negative body image include:
- Constantly comparing yourself to others, this could be your size, shape or your abilities
- Thinking critically about your body or abilities
- Obsessively checking your reflection in the mirror or avoiding mirrors completely
- Envying a friend’s body or just as commonly a celebrity
The causes of a negative body image can be complex, they can come from comments from people around us, friends, family, teachers. And a comment which isn’t meant as derogatory can be perceived as criticism once you are in that negative space, a negative body image will seek out proof that it is right, this perceived problem is actually a disaster.
Today’s podcast will include techniques you can use to build a better body image in a relaxed and calm state of body and mind.
There are numerous techniques that can help you build a better body image so if you find you need more help visit www.altptherapies.co.uk to have a bespoke recording made for you with your challenges in mind.
