ParticipantHey hey Sophie
Thanks for your post. It is so wonderful to see a young woman like yourself come forward and ask for suggestions on how to embrace the beauty of our existence.
First of all, congratulations as half of your work is already done. You want a positive change in your life and thats the most important. When we have the willingness to flow with life and start inner self journey, all possible help finds its way to us.
There is an awesome author by the name of Susan Jeffers (who has left the body now) who should be able to start you on your journey. Her book titled, Feel the fear and do it anyway, will come handy every time you feel down or need a pick me up. Start with the last 2 chapters and if they resonate with your being, you can read the first 10 simple chapters for various tools that you can use. What is required is disciplined ACTION on your part. Often, we want to do things or make positive changes in our lives but forget to take the action. Until, we apply the learnings into our life, changes do not occur.
And re: the visible scars on your entire body. There are many people who have all sorts of scars on their body from burns, injuries, abuse etc but they still go on to live an awesome life and make the best of what has been handed down to them. Do you think you could do the same ? I am sure you didn’t choose to have the scars on your body, which means, it was out of your control. When things are out of our control, we shouldn’t spend too much time worrying about them. Instead, we should embrace them and move forward with pride.
People are often attracted to physical beauty but what keeps them in love is your inner beauty. Inner beauty comes from having a beautiful heart, high self esteem and respect. If you accept yourself as you are, is there anyone in this world who can go against that ? NO ONE ! Everything is in our hands and we can make a conscious choice to be the best we can be.
Go and enjoy your life. Do not leave space for regrets ever 🙂 Everyone and everything have been put into our lives so that we can learn a lesson and grow. Things that do not work to bring more peace, contentment or bliss into your life, show them the out sign.
Loads of blessings,
Jasmine

ParticipantI also have this problem. I always second guess myself and feel unsatisfied with myself no matter what I’ve done to try to change. I have so much anxiety about all the same things you do! I’m glad there’s someone else out there with this problem.. 🙂

ParticipantI think that it always feels like you’re the only one going through whatever it is you’re going through at the time. But it’s quite comforting to remember that there’s always going to be someone, somewhere, who’s experienced exactly the same things as you have…and come out the other side again. 🙂
Still tough at times though!
🙂
