From the author
The most popular strategy for promoting a positive body image is based on two ideas "every body is beautiful" and "all bodies - bodies for a bikini". Such statements really increase the mood for a while, these are very successful marketing slogans, but they do not eliminate the source of the problem. No matter how we expand the definition of beauty and attractiveness, they still persistently present us as something most important for success and happiness in life. Meanwhile, a truly effective approach to correcting the situation with attitude to the image of the body should reflect the universal understanding that the problem lies in the fixation on the appearance. In this regard, we offer a new definition: a positive body image does not develop when you are sure that your body looks good. A positive body image is the knowledge that it is good regardless of appearance.
All people on Earth live every second of their lives in an amazing body, but we still determine our attitude to the bodies by how they, in our opinion, look in the eyes of others. In an effort to get confirmation of their own attractiveness, there is nothing wrong, this is a completely natural desire. And the positive attention of people in our lives is a very inspiring and supportive factor. External beauty can be a pleasant manifestation of our creative expression. But to live as a holistic, formed personality and appreciate yourself for this means not setting someone else"s opinion above your own well -being, health and happiness and not allow others to determine your essence. No attempts to squeeze yourself into the narrow framework of the ideals of beauty adopted in our culture, and no attempts to expand them so that we can all squeeze into them. We should no longer try to convince ourselves that we are all beautiful, on the grounds that beauty is the greatest source of value and self -confidence that you can imagine. Let"s try to provide ourselves and everyone we love with something better than external beauty
