Body Positive Affirmations

Joan Lipuscek

Body positive affirmations are powerful statements that encourage self-acceptance, self-love, and a healthy body image. These affirmations help individuals focus on their strengths and appreciate their bodies for what they can do rather than how they look. 

By regularly repeating positive affirmations, people can counteract negative self-talk, build self-esteem, and foster a more compassionate and respectful relationship with their bodies. Incorporating body positive affirmations into daily routines can be a transformative practice, promoting mental and emotional well-being while celebrating the unique beauty of every individual.

  1. "My worth is not determined by my appearance. I am valuable, worthy and deserving of love and respect."

  2. "I embrace my uniqueness and celebrate my individuality. I am beautifully and wonderfully made."

  3. "I am more than my physical appearance. My true beauty shines from within, radiating kindness, compassion, and strength."

  4. "I refuse to compare myself to others. I am on my own journey and I celebrate my progress and growth every step of the way."

  5. "I am deserving of self-care and self-compassion. I treat my body with kindness, nourishing it with healthy choices and positive thoughts."

  6. "I challenge society's narrow standards of beauty. I define beauty on my own terms, embracing diversity and celebrating all body types."

  7. "I am not defined by the opinions of others. I am confident in who I am and I refuse to let anyone else dictate my self-worth."

  8. "I am strong, capable, and resilient. I overcome obstacles with courage and determination and I am proud of the person I am becoming."

  9. "I choose to focus on what my body can do, rather than how it looks. I appreciate my body for its strength, vitality, and resilience."

  10. "I am worthy of love and acceptance exactly as I am. I embrace my flaws and imperfections, knowing that they make me uniquely me."

These affirmations can serve as reminders of self-love, empowerment, and acceptance for adolescents, teenagers and adults navigating the challenges of body shaming. I encourage you to repeat these affirmations daily and internalize the positive messages they convey.
