Summer can be hard ☀️
Diet culture tends to sound particularly loud this time of year - whether it's telling us that we need to change our bodies for vacation, the beach, the pool, cookouts, etc., telling us what to wear or what not to wear, or putting focus into new diet trends. All of this can be exhausting and make body image feel pretty challenging this time of year.
Remember, your body deserves to be cared for, not criticized. Your body deserves nourishment, hydration, movement that makes you happy, rest and relaxation, and compassion! And your body is worthy of experiencing all the fun that summer has to offer - exactly as it is today!
This summer, consider shifting the focus to:
✨Nourishment over restriction
✨Self-compassion over self-criticism
✨Memories over measurements
✨Presence over perfection
If body image has been hard lately, just know you're not alone. I hope some of these reminders can help quiet all of that diet culture noise!
