It’s that time of year again! The time when the sun comes out and we flock to the beach!

It’s that time of year again! The time when the sun comes out and we flock to the beach!

But it’s also the time when people start talking about being “beach/bathing suit body ready”

Frankly I wish we were over this!

If 2021 has taught us anything it’s to focus on what and who is important. Don’t get hung up on the fluff. But since I still see this completely idiotic ideal come up in my news feed I’m gonna take a few minutes and lay it out!

This photo was from 2019- pre covid and I can’t wait to do it again!

To get that perfect beach body follow these two steps-

Get your body

Add a bathing suit!

Tada!!!!

You did it, you are ready!

Now you may be thinking “my body is not beach/bathing suit ready”.

And my response to you is who says?!

And how did that opinion get any sort of traction in your brain and your life?

Where did these negative thoughts about your body come from and why are you participating in this belief?

Now please don’t misunderstand what I am saying, you may read that and think “well that’s easy to say”. It is easy to say “embrace you body #wearthesuit “ it is harder to actually do it. It takes practice. It requires consciously thinking about the messages in our heads. It requires listening to the messages being fed to us by people, media, etc. It takes work but little steps can create big changes!

So today let’s start moving the conversation forward. Let’s put on the bathing suit and put down the self condemnation!
