STOP BODY SHAMING IN THE NAME OF HEALTH

-



In today’s society, its body pressure is from all the edges. Everyone here is insecure about their weight. Some want to lose it and some want to gain it. There is shamming no matter what size you’re. Even I’ve been influenced by it and started thinking that I’m not good enough.


It usually starts at our home, our parents and family telling us to lose/gain weight. Little do they know they’re bringing our confidence down, they say that they are worried for our health but shaming someone because you’re worried about them is still shaming. Healthy will always look different for different people.  It’s time we have this conversation and address body shaming with our family because IT’S NOT OKAY.  Time to normalize telling parents not to body shame children whether underage or adults.


Society is growing, it’s changing with new times but when it comes to weight we still get crap about our sizes all the time.  Body shaming is a large issue that affects all genders, it’s never cute or funny. DON’T LET SOCIETY LABEL YOU.

Shame has no place when someone is doing their best.

BALANCE

-
I've always been an enthusiastic person but lately there were days in my life when I went in hiding, I went silent. Last few days I've been slowly finding a balance in my life and that journey has transformed me in ways I never thought of. I am slowly seeing a life way beyond the materialistic world and oh boy, what a beautiful life it is!  There are some days where your balance is on point. Other days, it feels like the world is toppling over on you. Today, honor your current state of balance.  Be proud of yourself for how far you've come.  So what does “balance” mean?   Holding on, letting go and knowing when to do which of the two.

HOLD HER HANDS

-
  Every woman has a past. Some were physically abused. Some had violent parents. Some had pubertal issues. Some had sexual abuse as a child from their own family members. Some had messed up love stories. Some had been forced into sex in the name of love. Some had been drugged. Some were date raped. Some had been viciously photographed on her bed. Some had been blackmailed by their boyfriend. Some were in an abusive relationship. Some had menstrual problems. Some had a broken family. Some had a divorce. Some had an obesity issue. Some had financial droughts. Some had drug or alcohol addiction. Some had few unsuccessful suicide attempts.  If you see a woman who has gone through any of these but had already wiped her tears, tied her hair up, masked her sorrows with a divine smile, stood tall and strong, started walking towards her future because she still has some hope left inside her and has not given up on the concept of love that still exists in this world, do not stab her wit...

SMASHING THE PATRIARCHY

-
Females have spoken up about their issues publicly due to the fast-growing influence of feminism, now they’re not afraid to speak their minds, but we’ve forgotten the real meaning of feminism in all this process . What is feminism? Nobody knows.  FEMINISM means fighting for the equality of all people irrespective of their gender. So why still no one talks about men's mental health? Men are always shamed for showing too much emotion, for crying and even for wearing soft colours that are labelled as girly colours by society and they're always told to be strong no matter what. It's high time we normalize men having a breakdown, wearing pinks, doing makeup.  Men's issues are very real and deeper than boys having a breakdown or wearing pink colour. But if you’re shaming them and calling them names to make choices, then the biggest problem is yourself. Stop pretending like you care about men’s issues when you’re the one dictating them the rules.  Stop hating men around you...
