Journal Prompts:
Write down all the negative, critical, or judgemental thoughts you have about your body. Then take each thought and spend time on reflecting where this thought originated. Is this a new or old thought? Is this something you started telling yourself or is it something someone has said to you? Begin to bring awareness and curiosity to each of these thoughts/feelings.
When you think of accepting your body and loving your body, how do you feel in your body? Do you feel light and open? Or does this bring up anxiety? Resistance? Explore what feelings, emotions, and sensations arise when you think about loving and accepting your body exactly as it is today.
When did you first have negative feelings towards your body? This often happens in childhood or as a teenager. Explore what arises for you, and how this feels.
