LISTEN BADDIE: MAKE PEACE WITH YOUR BODY, IT’S TIME

Neyara Nior By Posted on 1 2 m read 122 views

Did you know that January is self-love month?

Well it is, and it’s time we start loving every inch of our body,  cellulite and all!

Beauty norms and standards are changing generation to generation. Think about it. Cellulite was considered beautiful at one time. Some time ago, women who were hairy were considered to be women of wealth. A super thin waist was considered beautiful in the 19th century, so women would squeeze their internal organs out of their alignment to fit into a tight corset. The 1920s woman would bound her breast down to be more desirable. In the 1990s into the early 2000 the perfect female body was extremely thin with big boobs. Fast forward to today, big booties are deemed sexy.

Who knows what the next beauty norm will be?!

You have to determine your own beauty norms and standards. Ask yourself, what does beauty mean to me? You can’t look to media to determine if you’re beautiful or not. What if suddenly its decided that small fingers and hands are beautiful? Would you begin to wrap your daughters hands as a toddler, or would you begin to bind your hands as an adult, or both?

I believe you have two choices, accept your body as it is, or continue to look to media for their standard of beauty and continue to live feeling as though your body is subpar.

But at the end of the day you have to love yourself to be successful. Confidence is everything and if you are feeling insecure about your body people will be able to tell. If you don’t like something about your body change it until you feel absolutely confident. If you feel too short, where taller heels. If your lips are too small, where a clear lip gloss. If you feel fat, go work out. You have the power to change what you don’t like naturally. There is no need to go run under the knife.

So, for all the women who struggle with cellulite or  feel like their nose is too big, breasts are too small, or whatever, make peace with your body. You’re beautiful, so love your body because God gave it to you, and only you can rock it. So move on because there are more important issues at hand.
