Our 40s and 50s can be a huge flashpoint when it comes to our relationship with our bodies. A flashpoint that can feel even harder to navigate when it feels like all the strategies that used to work for us are no longer working - when our bodies are changing in ways that we don’t feel comfortable about and yet it feels like there’s nothing we can do to stop it.
Now of course, there are absolutely things we can do to hold back the tide - I’m sure you all know by now that things like more protein and strength training are the way to go - but I believe there’s more to it than that. That this is also an opportunity for us to really address our body image and how we feel about our bodies in a way that we might never have done before.
So today I want to dive into body positivity and body neutrality, and how we can use them (especially the latter) to not just make friends with our bodies, but to improve our overall health and wellbeing too.
