Self-Acceptance of Our Bodies: How to Love Your Body

Cheryl Beck Esch

Many women struggle with self-acceptance of their physical bodies.

We must treat our bodies with love and care.

Many of us carry with us past ideas of perfect bodies with the pressures of diets, magazine covers, pressures from people in our lives (maybe a parent when you were growing up or spouse).
Eliminating our past ideologies of how our bodies should like, whether from past experiences, from others or from society, is key to self-acceptance of our physical bodies.
We must ignore the judgements from others in order to move forward in healing.

 

Our bodies are a temple of the Lord (1Cor 6:19, 2 Cor 6:16). We are beautifully and wonderfully made.

 

We need to sweep out these old ideas of how our bodies should be through daily positive affirmations. As we begin to believe in our mind, heart, and spirit, we will come to love our physical beings leading to a respect of our bodies and a desire to take care of our vessels.

 

Stand in front of a mirror and lovingly look at your body and say some positive body affirmations. You can find a list at the blog below.
