Towards a Positive Body Image
“Like anyone else, there are days I feel beautiful and days I don’t, and when I don’t, I do something about it”. Cheryl Tiegs (1947 – )
There are always going to be days where we shlump around, feeling like the ugly duckling, examining our faces, bodies, and hair with a critical eye. Every now and again we deserve a day where we don’t worry about image but if you’re feeling down, there are things you can do to pick up your mood and learn to really appreciate YOU.
I found this list of Ten Steps To Positive Body Image at Loyola University. The list includes some simple wisdom and active ways you can learn to “think about new ways of looking more healthfully and happily at yourself and your body”.
I checked out the list. Some of the items were pretty helpful, so thanks.

I think they are all very sensible but it’s not always easy to shake off negativity when it comes to our body images. Maybe practicing some of these tips can help.
