Summer is a fantastic time of year, but it can also be very stressful, especially if your dream 'beach body' has yet to arrive. Yes, it is important to be the best you can be, but you also need to embrace who you are right now. That means you need to embrace your current beach body.
Your swimsuit physique, no matter where you are on your fitness journey, is still yours.
It's you, and you need to love yourself. We've got some tips to help make trips to the pool a little easier, as you learn to love how you look. This article is in no means intended to cut your goals short. We encourage you to continue working out and eating healthy so that maybe one day you don't have to work hard to embrace yourself. However, right now, you need this.
Focus On Your Progress
Don't look around and compare your work in progress to the completed goal of others. We are all at different stages of life with different struggles. Someone may have a perfect body, but they may struggle in other areas. Be happy with where you are and quit worrying about you versus them.
Don't Overthink It
One of the biggest obstacles men and women face as they put on
their swimsuits and head to the pool is worrying about what other
people think. Most of the time, they're quite honestly not thinking
about you, and if they are, they're unhealthily comparing as well
and need to work on embracing their body without judging. Just
enjoy yourself and do you. Don't let others get to your head.
Motivate Yourself
To help prevent unhealthy thoughts, repeat positive mantras to yourself, such as, "I am happy with how I look," or "The Universe is for me," or "Life is good." Whatever it is, make it positive and uplifting. Don't be dishonest with yourself, but instead accept what is. "Everything is as it should be."
Be Comfortable
Unfortunately, the swimsuit you wear can make or break your trip to the
water. What we wear has a large effect on how we feel. Wear the
swimsuit you are comfortable in and feel good in. Make sure it fits well
and covers what needs to be covered. You'll want to be able to enjoy
your time in the sun, without constantly adjusting your swimsuit.
Having the right swimsuit can help you embrace your current beach body.
Be Surrounded By Good People
If You Go To The Beach With The Right People, You'll Feel Comfortable The Whole Time. You Can Stop Worrying About Your Body And Start Embracing Yourself. So That You'll Be Able To Live In The Moment And Just Be You.
Don't Lose Your Goals
Even though you may not be where you want to be, it doesn't mean
it's time to throw everything away. Keep working on your beach body
goal, but instead of making it about a beach body, make it about
becoming a healthier and better you. Eat healthy food and
work out frequently, even on vacation. You'll feel better and just
exude healthiness.
Notice Your Improvements
ACCEPTING YOURSELF NOW, AND MAKING A GOAL TO BE BETTER. Set Yourself reachable goals with realistic deadlines to help you get to the bikini body you want. Keep the end goal in mind and it will make much easier to reach them. This will help you embrace your current beach body, while simultaneously committing to keep working on a healthier you.
