💡 Learning to Shift from Negativity to Neutrality

Hi Reader

We're excited to share our latest podcast episodes on the transformative concept of body neutrality becasue we know that many, many people struggle with this everyday.

Research studies have shown that men and women have overwhelming negative body dissatisfaction, and that this increases with a higher BMI.

And the negative impacts to our mental health are vast.

Join us as we explore how to appreciate your body for its capabilities rather than its appearance.

In these episodes, you'll discover:

  • The significance of body neutrality and its impact on self-perception
  • Five actionable steps to achieve body neutrality
  • Insights from Natalie and April on fostering a healthier mindset

Key Takeaways:

  • Call a truce on the war with your body
  • Start a daily body appreciation practice
  • Counteract negative self-talk with body-neutral phrases
  • Focus on your unique strengths and talents
  • Clean up your social media feeds for a healthier mindset
