7 BODY POSITIVE NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS TO SET FOR 2019

Want to make some changes in 2019? If you’re already writing down your new year’s resolutions, you’ve come to the right place.

Let’s take a look at some of the best #BoPo goals you can set yourself:

1.  Highlight your favourite body part

What’s your favourite body part? It might sound like a weird question, but answering it could help you to start loving yourself. When you focus on an area of your body that makes you smile with pure joy and pride, it’s a beautiful thing.

Consider which parts of you make you feel sexy and beautiful. You might have wonderful legs or gorgeous hair. Whatever it is, write it down and start appreciating it. You could then look for clothes that accentuate this part of you so that you get that extra lift you’ve been looking for.

2.  Throw out clothes that don’t fit well

Are you wearing clothes that don’t fit well? Your wardrobe is supposed to make you feel wonderfully sexy and beautiful, not bring you down. Sometimes, when we don’t pay too much attention, we end up wearing things that are just not right for us.

For example, you might be wearing an ill-fitted bra. You would not believe the boost having a properly measured bra gives you. Take the time to ensure that you’re wearing clothes that fit and, most importantly, flatter you. You deserve it!

3.  Stop talking about diets

Are you guilty of this naughty little sin? If you always find yourself talking about dieting and weight loss, it’s time to change your ways. As 2019 looms, it could be the ideal time to make a serious promise to yourself.

Quit talking about these things all of the time. It does your mental health no good whatsoever. When you’re constantly focusing on your weight and putting value on yourself based on that, it will bring you down. Give it a rest.

4.  Find a workout style you adore

Exercise does not have to be linked to weight loss. You should lead an active lifestyle because it makes you feel wonderful and it is great for your health. That is the right reason to take care of yourself in this particular way. Don’t panic if you don’t enjoy running on the treadmill or doing yoga or pilates.

The truth of the matter is that few people do! Instead, try to find a workout style that suits you. For example, you might find that you enjoy cycling around the city or hitting some dance classes.

5.  Try out a totally new look

Feeling those ‘new year, new you’ vibes? If you’re looking to try out something completely different, why not give a new look a whirl? Updating your wardrobe and trying out some clothing options that you may not have thought about before is an excellent idea.

When you start to shake things up a little, you might just find that there’s a style out there you adore. You will never know until you try so it’s worth giving a go.

6.  Practice self-care regularly

Do you practice self-care? Here’s a small and simple way that you can boost your body positivity in 2019. When life starts to feel too busy and hectic, all too many of us let it get on top of us and start to panic and feel anxious. Take a step backward and breathe. You need to get out of your head and look after yourself.

You could start with small things like making the time for a long, hot soak in the bath. Alternately, you may want to take up some kind of relaxing activity such as yoga or meditation. The choice is yours!

7.  Start each day with a compliment

When was the last time that complimented yourself? Sometimes, we get into the habit of always being negative about ourselves or thinking that we are not worthy of love and adoration. Nothing could be further from the truth.

One resolution that you might want to try for yourself is to start each day with a compliment. Look in the mirror each morning and each night say one positive thing about yourself. It’s a truly positive way to start and end the day.

Ready to start a new chapter of your life? As the new year is almost here, it could be time to make some positive changes. Trying to practice body positivity is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Make your resolutions today and get started.
