Body Image Awareness

Body image awareness is the understanding and perception of how you see and feel about your own body. It involves recognizing your thoughts, beliefs, and feelings toward your body’s appearance and physical abilities. Having a healthy body image means accepting and appreciating your body as it is, while being mindful of negative influences like media and societal standards that can distort your perception. Cultivating body image awareness helps promote self-esteem, mental well-being, and a balanced relationship with your body, fostering acceptance rather than comparison or criticism.
