The media often portrays a very narrow range of body types as ideal for a bikini. This airbrushed image is unrealistic and unattainable for most women. Striving for this ideal can lead to feelings of inadequacy and body shame.
The « bikini body » mentality emphasizes looking a certain way rather than feeling good and being healthy. This can lead to unhealthy crash diets, excessive exercise, and a negative relationship with food and exercise.
Having a bikini body isn’t just about looking good; it’s about balance, well-being, radiant health, and beauty. The secret is simply taking the time to learn how to honor yourself with your lifestyle, your food choices, and by moving your body.
It’s about the choices and commitments it represents. It takes time, diligence, inspiration, the right coach sometimes, and the right strategy from a place of compassion and deep self-love. At the end of the day, it’s how you feel about YOU that matters. Looking good is the bonus. Focus on what makes you feel good and enjoy the summer!
