06 Mar BodyTalks: Tushy Thursday!
HELLO SWEET CHEEKS!
At Jezebel, we celebrate you. This encompasses every facet of who you are – who WE all are. We show you ways to see yourself through the lens of unconditional love, and we understand that some days it’s easy to appreciate ourselves, and other times it can be more of a challenge.
This is where we want to flip the script and really talk about what our bodies can do for us. Honest discussions can lead to acceptance, and acceptance can open our eyes to the possibilities of love.
Thursdays bring with it a whole lot of beautiful butts! As part of our ongoing Body Talks series, we’ll be showcasing some of our favorite images where hineys are the star! Jezebel wants to discuss the challenges we face with often disliked parts of our bodies and hopefully turn those conversations towards ones of appreciation.
THURSDAYS ARE FOR TUSHIES!
The curves, strength, and softness of this area not only play a significant role in our posture and movement but also reflect an undeniable sensuality. Embracing the beauty of your butt can help you connect more deeply with your body and appreciate its natural shape. When we honor and nurture this part of ourselves, we build a stronger, more positive relationship with our bodies as a whole.
IN CASE NO ONE TOLD YOU TODAY...NICE BUTT!
In a society where expectations are unrealistic, and life is hectic it’s too easy to put ourselves on the back burner. We’re all filled with love , appreciation and kindness and while it seems so effortless to share these gifts with our family, friends and even strangers on the street – it’s somehow difficult to turn that same love and kindness on ourselves.
This week, we’ve put together a list of small ways you can begin to treat your body with the appreciation it deserves!
ONE: SCRUBS & BUBBLES
Next time you’re fresh out of the shower, take a couple of minutes extra just for yourself to indulge in some skin care! We’re often accustomed to caring for the skin of our face with scrubs, moisturizer and masks – but did you know these same products are available in formulas created especially for your butt? Gentle scrubs or oils, like coconut or shea butter, can improve circulation, soften our skin and encourages a deeper sense of self-love.
TWO: SATIN & LACE
Its easy to lose track of ourselves with the sheer amount of tasks most of us juggle on a daily basis. Between work, school, family, and our social circles – the last thing on our minds is our underwear! Lingerie shopping is another excellent opportunity to show appreciation for your body. Find pieces that make you feel empowered and comfortable, ones that encourage you to embrace your shape. The right lingerie can enhance your confidence, making you feel both supported and sensual. So many lingerie shopping advice columns tout the importance of a certain material, cut or design. I’m here to tell you the only thing that matters is what makes YOU feel amazing! For me, sometimes that means lacy boy-shorts while other times its a soft cotton high-waisted pair with my favorite fandom printed on it! (Some days it’s nothing at all!)
THREE: AFFIRMATION AND REFLECTION
There’s a lot to be said about the power of the mind. Taking a few seconds a day to find one nice thing to say about your butt (or any other part of your body you might be struggling with) goes a long way towards acceptance and inner peace. We encourage you to think about all the ways in which your butt serves you in your daily life! Not only do they help us sit comfortably, but they’re a crucial part of supporting us as we walk, and they’re instrumental in the sensuality of dance!
These small ways in which we can foster appreciation for our bodies take no more than a few moments, yet they hold the potential to change our lives. For those of us who journal regularly, (or those of us who would really love to start!) dedicating an entry to intentional reflection about the thoughts we have on our butt (perhaps in nothing more than your favorite pair of comfy panties) might just open up a discussion, even if only with ourselves, about the ways in which we are worthy of the love, kindness and positivity we so easily share with others.
Are you feeling inspired by our topics? What would you like to see more of? How do you feel about your tummy!?
