DO YOURSELF GOOD

Some bloggers sell us dreams and bet on the idealization and the illusion of perfection that they give. Others, on the contrary, are enriching by their kindness and their defense of the right to acceptance. This is the case of Louise Aubery, aka My Better Self, who chose to stop self-criticism and comparison to highlight an incredibly inspiring Body Positive philosophy.

Louise also denounces discrimination and the dictatorship of thinness on the net. For her, brands are still afraid to celebrate the diversity of bodies, that it is not a seller. When people today need to identify with real people. The young woman decided to launch the hashtag #OnVeutDuVrai. Through it, she intends to denounce body shaming in the professional world, but more broadly on social networks, by collecting testimonies from other young women who dare to show their beauty without filters and without retouching.

The pursuit of happiness is more important than the attempt to lose weight. We are our worst enemy and the only person who can free us from our complexes is ourselves. Let’s accept our body and let’s try to love it for its true value. To take power over life is to listen to your body, to do yourself good.
