The times when I start thinking about my body too much, I remember that I donāt really pay attention to other peoples bodies. It really doesnāt register to me. I donāt judge how other people look. Rather, I judge how I get along with them and the energy they give off. I truly believe that everyone has beauty.
I take care of my bodyās needs. I have had to evolve as I have grown. I try to eat food that feels good and keep myself strong. I think that feeling strong is important to me. I wear clothes that feel good on my body and spend very little time in front of the mirror. I focus more on who I am as a person. Like the Roald Dahl picture attached, I think our inside shines outward. Iāve met ābeautifulā people who were ugly af.
My body has changed in a bunch of different ways since having my children. Thereās always pressure to try to look how you did before having kids, but I think that is ridiculous. Every single thing about me has changed, why wouldnāt I want my body to reflect that growth as well?
It is helpful for me to think about all the people that I have loved in my life. Their stunning beauty in my eyes is not because they are perfect, but because of my love for them. I wouldnāt want them any other way then exactly who they are.

The other day i took a deep look at the trees on my way home. They wore so beautiful because someone is taking care of that. In a world of status this is not a āgreat job to doā but the impact of it is so great. We all hopefully doing something that matters in a way without us realising. The world isnāt about me is about us. this became my way of running from the idea āIm the centre of the worldā. Hope it makes senseš«

Recently Iāve been focusing on feeding my soul and doing things for my spirit rather than for an external motive
*(Often times I will catch myself putting on an outfit or posting on instagram with only the intent of being recognized and validated)
we are individual people and seeking things outside of ourselves makes it difficult to be happy and feel content with our lives.
A few thoughtsā¦.
- doing art because itās enjoyable (not focusing on the outcome)
- wearing an outfit that I like, not what might be complimented
- taking photos because I want to remember the moment or because itās beautiful, not to post it on instagram
- listening to pop music because I enjoy it and I shouldnāt be worried that itās too āmainstreamā
If you canāt tell this is a common theme in my life- so Iām here to remind myself and the person reading this to refocus your perspective ā¤ļø

being seen and appreciated for who i am rather than being kept around out of convenience has truly been one of the most life changing things for me recently. i now have the confidence to use my discernment and make decisions about what is unnecessary and unwanted in my life.
thinking about the difference in my quality of life makes me so emotional, iām just feeling so many things at once. iām happy but i feel like my youth has been spent feeling subhuman and unworthy. from now on i will love. i will surround myself with it at all times.

Humans have always danced. It is part of who we are, yet we have been conditioned to be self conscious, to think that we do not move our bodies good enough. Dancing is beyond judgement. Dancing is not a skill, it is our soul moving through our bodies, expressed in movement. Dancing is healing. Dancing is bodily autonomy. Dancing is FUN! Any feeling you are feeling can be moved through with dance yet even alone, you fear looking foolish. Kill the judge in your mind, shut the fuck up, and MOVE š
