My Frame of Health

"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it." Confucius

In their own words http://www.dove.us/#/cfrb/

Have we really overlooked the young girls and what affects their self perception? Confidence is not always obvious. A young girl, vibrant and out going could very well be tortured by the feeling of not being "good enough" Imagine the millions of images that surround us every day, from TV, magazines, TV shows, billboards, books, friends and family, Internet, flyers, catalogs, store banners and even more.

Take a look around you, throughout your day, become conscious of what you see. Take a moment and reflect on all the images and then ask "How do you feel?" It might even be worse for a young woman not fully developed into herself yet, just trying to grow up.

"Every time I see a Victoria Secret Ad, I am reminded that my body is not toned, not curvy, and not sexy. Then the conversation with myself begins. I should not feel that way, I am fine with being me. Then the annoyance of having to have that conversation and I feel worse that I would allow these things to bother me." Has it been apart of my life for so long, have I been over exposed to such things, and how do I start to feel better?

Just some thoughts...Amber
