Everyone is beautiful

This is just a quick post as this week I've been in so many rehearsals for a show I'm in, Grease, which our first performance is tonight and finishing on Saturday night.

In the dressing room last night, I was talking to a few of my friends about body image and how we all view ourselves when we look in the mirror, coming to the conclusion that everybody will see ourself differently to what you and other people see. 

We started listing things we hate about ourselves and the things we're most self conscious about, lowering our self esteem. This is when one girl said "but the things we hate about ourselves, is probably the thing someone else loves the most about." To which, she was stop on. 

So this is when the little "feel good show" begun. Going around in a circle, we named one or two physical features about the other people in an attempted to get us to love our own bodies and to be comfortable in the skin we have to live in. 

The things we listed went from eyes to hair, legs to curves, chin to shoulders. 

This is such a good way to boost your self esteem and make others and yourself feel good about ourselves and comfortable in our own bodies. 

So if you're having one of those days were you just can't get your hair to fall right and you feel ugly (nobody is ever ugly, only beautiful), or you notice a friend not looking so comfortable in the clothes they've chose, try this little "feel good show" to make everyone feel beautiful. Just to make it clear, everyone is beautiful, even if you don't feel it you are.
