What's something you like about your body?

Unread post by Amanda F »

Self-love and acceptance can do wonders for our mental health. Sometimes, in a society that's always telling us to improve our bodies, it can be extra-empowering to love yourself. What are some things you love about your body? These can be ways that your body looks, feels, or smells - anything you like!

So... something I like about my body is also a thing I feel insecure about at other times: my belly.

When I'm feeling good about it I'm happy that it's a comfy warm naturally occurring cushion!

I have very small hands and while occasionally that's inconvenient (there's no way I could play guitar), I think they look really cute and I like them a lot. Also, my legs are very strong, which I appreciate.

I'm very insecure about my body, so I'm trying not to scrape the bottom of the barrel here, but I guess my teeth are nice? They're nicely aligned and I've been told that I have great teeth. Not many see it though since I never smile.

I've been really liking how my back looks lately. It's gotten kind of strong, and I both like how that looks in my clothes and how it makes me feel a little bit like a superhero.

There are plenty of things to like about every body!! I like my smile - I never had braces and I'm proud of that. I like my hazel eyes. And my legs! They're short and muscular and I love those things.
