Yes!! I love this. Thank you for sharing. It helped me as well to completely stop weighing myself for over two years, and recognizing that I am so much more than a number on a scale. And you're right! We are definitely "bullies" to ourselves. Cheers to you! ❤️
Loooved it: the primary purpose of a body is to Use it!! What a great way to shift from bashing one self to celebrating what my body allows me to do! Ill remember that next time I notice the cellulite right under my buttocks as Im exercising. It is all good! Thanks Erin! Ill be sharing this on my social media 💪🏽😊👍🏽
For me it was after a dream, I hope it can help someone: for many years I was really critical towards my body. One night I had this dream: I could see from the outside my empty body, as if it was a dummy. This body was slowly falling down, dying. Next to it there was something that I knew it was me, my spirit, much bigger that that body, The spirit took that body and hold it with an incredible amount of love and compassion, and at the same time it was letting me know that the body was a part of me, that needs love and care. and just because it is a part of me it deserves that love. Since then I stopped saying negative things to it and I stopped comparing it, and it feels great, what a relief to get rid of those kind of thoughts. This video is great, thank you!
We are always our own worst critics and it's the worst. It takes a lot of work to befriend our body but I love that you're coming into it! That you're accepting yourself just as you are.
Being a mother to a 15 month old, the mentioning of the body post birth hit home for me. I'm so self conscious about my breasts and very open about it to my other half who says "I'm fine." I definitely need to get back into saying mantras daily, especially for body positivity which is something I advocate, but I know that for whatever reason it's natural for us to nit pick at things 'wrong' with our bodies. Still a work in progress with accepting and loving my body (the minor part I'm having an issue with🙄). But I need to definitely work on it to inspire my young girl to not fall into that dark path of thought.
Awesome video. Inspiring as usual. :D Just a question. Is it true that it takes at least 3 months of working out to finally 'lose' weight? or does it depend on the person and their circumstances etc?

I have horrible insecurities about myself. That's one of the reasons why I don't want to date again for awhile.
