Revolutionize your self-image with 23 empowering Body neutrality affirmations from a registered dietitian. Foster a mindset of acceptance and redefine your relationship with your body. Begin your journey to a more balanced and neutral perspective.

What is Body Neutrality?

Body neutrality is the idea of taking a neutral stance on your physical body. This means removing any hatred or comparing that most people take part in. Instead, it is the active practice of respecting your body as a vessel to live.

Because of western beauty standards, many try to transform their bodies into being as small as possible. Instead of subscribing to this goal, the body neutrality mindset comes in to be a reminder that a smaller body is not superior.

Why You Should Lean into Body Neutrality

Body neutrality can be for anyone. But, that doesn’t mean everyone should practice it.

Those who tend to struggle with body acceptance would benefit the most from this practice. It would allow them to lean away from the negative self-talk and towards a more useful self-talk.

How to Use Body Neutrality Affirmations

Affirmations can be used in any way you see them beneficial.

Some will recite them in the morning, before beginning their day. Some will have them written on a sticky note place on a mirror. This could be internally, or out loud.

No matter how you choose to use these affirmations be sure to repeat them regularly. Speaking them once won’t make a long-term impact. By repeating them often you can keep your words top of mind.
