In the wake of all these unhealthy body image headlines - Mandi post.partyy has a powerful reminder for you - your body is not a trend ❤️
・・・
I’m 34, a Mom of two beautiful boys & I can finally say with full confidence that I love my body; through ALL of it’s seasons and for the one’s to come. 

For years I spent my days nitpicking my body, criticizing its “flaws” and wishing parts of it away. I waged war against the one thing that had kept me afloat for my 34 years of life without so much as appreciating it to it’s fullest extent. It’s funny how time works but I know for me, I can be pretty nostalgic. Over the years I’ve found myself falling down the rabbit hole of looking at old photos of myself throughout my life, but now I’m met with an entirely different perspective. “Wow, I was so cute back then, why didn’t I see it?” “I really wasn’t as heavy as I thought I was”. 

We tend to always be our own harshest critics. If only I could have viewed myself back then with the same love and affection that I give to those around me; the same way I look at my children now as a Mom. The same way that they look at me.

If we focus so much on the negatives we end up missing the positives. We miss ourselves for who we truly are. 

A number on a scale doesn’t define you.  The size of your garment doesn’t mean anything. What matters is how you FEEL because true beauty radiates from the inside out. 

Thank you to mayanageneviere for curating this beautiful custom bra for me. The moment I put it on I was stopped in my tracks while looking in the mirror and It wasn’t to criticize myself… it was to realize just how beautiful and confident I truly feel, how far I’ve come and how much further I have to go.

One of the most important relationships you’ll ever have in this life is the one you have with yourself. It’s time to be kind to you.

All bodies are good bodies. Every body is a poem. 🤍
