In a world that bombards us with unrealistic beauty standards and societal expectations, the journey to embracing our bodies can be a challenging one. In the midst of this clamor of messages, positive body affirmations are a powerful tool for celebrating our bodies and all that they do for us. Your body is your home for this life, it’s where your soul lives, and revering it is your birthright.

I am no stranger to feeling down about my body. I have spent my whole life feeling self-conscious about my thick thighs. I used to avoid shorts like the plague, and only wear long skirts or baggy pants that hid them. When all else failed, I’d crop them out of pictures altogether.

It was only after I started making a concerted effort to appreciate all that my legs do for me, and to say loving words to them when I looked in the mirror, that my relationship with body started to change.

Affirmations seem simple, but they are powerful words that have the potential to reshape our thoughts and redefine our self-perception. Scientifically, affirmations work by influencing our subconscious mind, gradually rewiring negative thought patterns and replacing them with positive beliefs. Their power lies in repetition.

I recommend picking a few affirmations from the list below that really resonate with you, and then incorporating them into your daily routine. A few years ago, I committed to saying one affirmation to myself every time I saw my reflection or saw a picture of myself. My body confidence slowly started building, and now I genuinely love how I look on most days.

Your body is a temple that deserves to be worshipped, so let’s get into this list of uplifting body positivity affirmations!
