Episode 46: 12 Tips to Improving Your Body Image
Let’s face it. Most Pear-Shaped Women have poor body images. If a sad fact but a fact non-the-least. We tend to beat ourselves up every time we gain a few pounds on our hips, go on crash diets and then cheat on them binge eating and drinking ultimately harming our bodies even more.
The long-term effects of this poor body image typically developed during our teenage years can create a life full of self-loathing and unfulfilled potential.
There is good news though! We can re-learn a healthier and more accurate view of ourselves by challenging any distortions we learned in our early years.
This is a lifelong process and can be started by learning to accept and love ourselves ultimately changing how we think, feel and react to our Pear-Shaped Bodies and curves.
