"Teaching my daughters that their bodies are strong and beautiful and worthy and perfect... regardless of size, color, shape, smoothness, softness.
I’m teaching them every day, by living it. By walking it. By showing up. ⠀
⠀
By showing up and loving my body... regardless of what size my jeans are.
By showing up and loving my body... with it’s soft and wiggly skin across my stomach.
By showing up and loving my body... because the hundreds of scars and marks were created by my body doing exactly what it’s supposed to do: grow.
By showing up and loving my body... in the winter with scarves and boots, and in the summer with whatever damn bathing suit I feel like wearing.
By showing up and loving my body... even when it’s hard. Even when society tells me that thin is more beautiful. Even when the entire world is constantly promoting the idea that thinner=healthier.
Through it all, I’m showing up for myself and for my daughters... and treating my body the way I hope they’ll treat theirs someday. Because their bodies are strong and beautiful and worthy and perfect... regardless of size, color, shape, smoothness, or softness."
Some beautiful body love from the amazing @thegarciadiaries 💗
