This can be a physical board that you create or an online board (Pinterest is a great place to start!). Fill your board with body-positive affirmations, images of people who look like you, quotes about self-love, etc. Anything that makes you feel good and helps shift your focus from negative to positive body image is fair game.
Once you have a physical or digital board, find some time each day to stare at this board and feel the good vibes emanating from it. As you spend more time focusing on body-positive thoughts and images, you will start to see a change in your own body image.
Creating a body-positive environment:

This might mean unfollowing anyone on social media who makes you feel bad about your body, surrounds themselves with images or quotes that are not body-positive, or anything else that does not make you feel good. You should also fill your home with things that make you feel happy and loved. Surround yourself with body-positive affirmations, images, quotes, etc. Also, take some time for self-care! Get a massage, take yourself on a date, buy yourself some flowers…do whatever makes you feel good and special. You deserve it!
