Stop beating yourself up about what you look like. Stop starring at yourself in the mirror and picking apart your body. Stop with the negative comments you make to yourself about how flat your stomach is looking today.

Where is that going to get you? It makes you feel awful about yourself and serves no one. Go on a mirror fast if you have to. Stop obsessing about what your body looks like. Try going a whole day without looking in the mirror. Take your attention off of what your body looks like and focus on something that actually matters.

Be aware of the things that you say to yourself. Notice them. When you catch yourself starting to say something negative recognize it and choose peace instead. Choose to let it go and maybe to replace it with something positive. Do what you gotta do to get past the negativity and start to move towards more peaceful and positive thoughts.

Focus your energy on feeling good. Go for a walk. Do some yoga. Sweat it out at the gym. Lift those weights. Sit in a quite place somewhere and clear your mind. Whatever makes you feel good. Life is meant to be fullyyyy lived. Don’t get so caught up in what your body looks like that you forget what really matters in life.
