6 Tips to Boost Your Confidence, Feel Sexy in Your Own Skin, and Love Yourself at Any Age or Size

The best place to start is with positive self-talk. 

Getting a grip on the internal monologue of crap we say to ourselves is a big step towards raising self-esteem.  It’s pretty hard to feel good about yourself when the person you spend the most time with (you!) is constantly criticizing, belittling, and demeaning everything you say, do, and think. 

If you’re struggling to recalibrate your inner voice, get some cheerleaders in your life! Spending time with people who want the best for you, celebrate your achievements, and just genuinely love who you are is the best way to start building the belief that you are amazing.

Listen to uplifting messages, affirmations, meditations, or even other people’s positive experiences and really try to focus on the good things in your life to cultivate gratitude. 

When you cut the negativity out of your daily life, your entire world begins to get brighter, which makes it way easier to feel good about yourself. 

The hardest thing for most of us is accepting the parts of ourselves that we aren’t so fond of. 

Sometimes it’s tough to embrace the things we believe are imperfections. We have trouble seeing that our individuality is what makes us truly beautiful, from the way we think and act to the way we look. 

Authentic self-expression is the ultimate form of self-love. It's about being true to who you are and expressing yourself in a way that feels genuine and natural.  Whether it's through your unique interests or style, authentic self-expression allows you to communicate your individuality to the world. 

By embracing the things you (or society) believe to be flaws, you are empowering self-love, self-acceptance, and acknowledging that it all makes you who you are. It allows you to express your authentic self without reservation. 

When you embrace your whole self, you get to elevate everything that makes you one of a kind and radiate the confidence from within to live life on your own terms. 

Engaging in mind-body practices can deeply connect you with your body, paving the way for the cultivation of mindful body language that exudes confidence. 

By embracing movement and exercise you become in tune with your body, your capabilities, and you naturally exhibit a confident demeanor that is evident in your posture, gestures, and overall presence.

Practices like yoga and breath work not only promote physical well-being but also encourage mindfulness and self-reflection. 

This integration of mind and body creates a heightened sense of awareness, which empowers you to project an air of confidence through your movements and non-verbal cues. 

Incorporating these practices creates a mindful approach to body language that not only positively influences how others perceive you, but also fosters a deep sense of self-confidence and empowerment within yourself.

Engaging in activities that push you out of your comfort zone can significantly boost your confidence and self-esteem. 

An effective way to cultivate inner strength is by facing challenges head-on and embracing new experiences, even if they seem daunting at first. 

There are a lot of ways to push yourself out of your comfort zone; all you have to do is try a new experience such as public speaking, performing, taking up a new sport, learning to play a musical instrument, a new hobby, or meeting new people to hang out with. 

Embrace the learning curve, confront your fears, and persevere through challenges so you can build a sense of accomplishment and self-assurance.  The key to building confidence by stepping into the unknown lies in embracing the discomfort of something new. Facing challenges with a positive mindset can cultivate inner strength.

By actively seeking out new experiences and confronting fears, you can unlock your true potential and develop a deep sense of self confidence.

Think of the person you love the most. 

How do you care for them, look out for their best interests, and create support for them to have their best life?

Now think about if you would or are doing those same things for yourself.

Often we show more care for the needs and wants of others than ourselves. 

When you treat yourself like someone you love, it shows. 

By taking time for self-care, you are showing yourself that you are someone important and someone that you love enough to make the effort for. 

Self-care comes in many forms such as working on self-growth, pampering, relaxing, playing, and creating something fun.

Sometimes the best way to build your belief that you are worth-while is to treat yourself as if you are the most valuable human being in your life…. Because if you think about it, you are.

Ask yourself right now what you can do to show yourself some love right now with some self-care and then promise yourself to make time regularly for the most important person in your life – YOU. 

You’ve heard that saying: when you look good, you feel good! 

Well, in my experience it is 100% true. 

Imagine slipping into that perfect outfit that fits like a dream, accentuates all your best features, reflects your unique style, and makes you feel like you're ready to walk down the red carpet.

The right outfit has the ability to instantly elevate your mood and mindset. Think about it – when you put on an outfit that makes you feel downright fabulous, your whole demeanor changes.  You walk a little taller, smile a little brighter, and exude a self-assured vibe that's simply irresistible. 

So, instead of focusing on fashion styles that are trendy or popular, look for clothing that flatters your shape and gives you that surge of energy when you see yourself in the mirror. 

Pick styles and colors that make you feel empowered, beautiful, and comfortable. 

Believing that you look as good as you feel is like a secret weapon that unlocks your inner radiance and charm. 

So dress for yourself and get ready to conquer the world with style and grace!
