Beauty Tips For Body Care
Each year, we are asked what we are thankful for. Normally, our answers reside to our family, overall health, and whatever else that stand as important. But do we ever say that we’re thankful for ourselves? For that chance we are given daily that we open our eyes to breathe another breath and enjoy the world for another 24 hours?Since a young age, I’ve struggled with self love. Mostly because of physical disabilities and medical concerns that have prevented me from doing what I would love to do, like sports, go swimming. Yet I have come to the realization that those things about my body do not define my worth. This also applies to what my skin goes through and looks like some days, if not every day. Believe me, a breakout or that aggravating PIE or PIH mark sets my teeth on edge! It affects how I feel about myself. How others see me, because, unfortunately, not everyone in the world is kind and stupidly impulsive, resulting in a rude comment about my skin or my appearance as a whole. That just makes us irritated and over-evaluate our faces and bodies.Self-love is a hard concept to understand and grasp, but one that is substantial to how we heal from the inside-out. Takes time and practice, discipline and a routine that, eventually, makes a difference. It’s priceless. It all comes from our hearts and minds, at least overtime. But that all comes down to how we wish to live and see who we are, no matter what state it is in. An acne breakout, dryness/dehydration, texture, rosacea, psoriasis, ultra-sensitive, scarring and hyperpigmentation, and anything else that bother us the most for personal reasons - those, like a physical disability, don’t make us less valuable. So, as we go about today, let’s make it a day where we tell ourselves how awesome and wonderful we are; acknowledge the amount of love and beauty and potential that are within ourselves. Because at the end of the day, that is what should matter most, out of anything and everything else. You’re an amazing human and we are thankful you exist.
