How to Become Confident in Your Body

You wake up and within seconds, you’re feeling your body to see what your stomach feels like and if you can feel your bones.

You check the mirror even though you really don’t want to. You suck in your stomach, hold your breath and look at your body from all angles. You think to yourself how your face is puffy and that you really want to look good today. You scan yourself in the mirror, from top to bottom and really don’t like what you see.

You dread when you have to get dressed - it sets the tone for your entire day. Sometimes you wake up and already know it’s going to be a bad day, and other times, it only turns into a bad day once your put your clothes on. Everything feels uncomfortable, physically and mentally. You keep checking your body, evaluating yourself constantly. 

You go through your day trying to hide your body or to “fix” your appearance. You check every mirrored surface you pass and adjust yourself accordingly. You often find yourself thinking about what others must think about you. As a result, you do whatever you can to avoid bringing attention to yourself and especially your body. When you’re around other people, you obsess over little details like how they look at you or why they don’t look at you. You start believing that everyone is as hyper-focused on your body and judging it in the same ways you are. 

You want to be at peace with your body and to feel confident in it.

I’m Stephanie and I created the Finally Body Confident course for women who want to feel more confident in your body. This course is designed to help you to feel more confident in your body wherever you are in your journey. This is a self-paced course that has 5 modules that include lessons which build upon each other to make body confidence simpler and more attainable. In this course, you will learn through the following modules:

  • Awareness: You can’t do much to fix a problem if you aren’t even aware of how this problem actually shows up in your life. This module will help you to understand exactly how and to what extent your lack of body confidence is affecting you.

  • Prepping Your Mindset: Body confidence is a radical shift from where you currently are, so we need to prep your mind to set you up for success for the work that you will be doing during the rest of the course.

  • Self-Exploration: This may sound silly, but sometimes, we go through life and are not really aware of our beliefs or why we do the things that we do. Without understanding how your beliefs, behaviors and values affect your body image, it will inhibit your ability to work on building body confidence. 

  • Taking Inventory: This module will help you to recognize those things currently in your life that are impacting your confidence in your body including your current beliefs, what and who you surround yourself with and how you think about yourself, amongst other things.

  • Action: This is where everyone wants to jump to, but without all of the information you learned from the prior modules, taking action won’t lead to long-term success. Once you’ve done the prior work and then get to this module, you will begin to implement everything you’ve learned so far. I aim to take the confusion and overwhelm out of building body confidence by giving you very specific ways that you can take action.

Through this course, you will learn how to feel confident in your body and how you can sustain this newfound confidence.

You will have the foundation to go through life without worrying about your body, your clothes or what you think others are thinking. 

This course is for you if:

  • You are currently struggling with your body image and want to feel confident in your body

  • You are willing to put in the work to look inside, be honest with yourself and implement the tools to build your body confidence

  • You are willing to commit to the course and to continue what you learn inside this course into your life once the course is over

This course is not for you if:

Bonuses:

  • You will have lifetime access to this course

  • You will get 30 days of journaling prompts that can help you to build upon your body confidence after completing the course

  • You will also have access to a workbook designed to be used in conjunction with the modules

The cost of this course is $97 which is an investment in yourself. If you’re unsure, I encourage you to ask yourself what the costs will be if you continue on this path of never feeling comfortable in your body?

Finally Body Confident can get you started on your journey to body confidence and will give you lasting tools for life to help your confidence.

I am a therapist who specializes in treating body image issues. Through my work with clients one on one, I have seen patterns that contribute to a person lacking body confidence. I have seen what works to improve body confidence and what gets in the way. With this experience, I put together this course so that more people have access to gaining body confidence and I truly believe that it can help you.

If you are tired of feeling bad about yourself and your body, it’s time to take action.
