How To Embrace Your Stretch Marks

How To Embrace Your Stretch Marks

Sometimes, a sudden change to your physical appearance can be upsetting. We try to teach ourselves to love our bodies the way they are, and most of the time we do a good job of it.  Still, it’s normal to feel some discomfort when we have a new scar or some new stretch marks. If you find that you’re struggling for total acceptance after a major change to your body, you’ve come to right place. Stretch marks can be a bother but you don’t need to get them surgically removed. Instead, here is how to love and embrace your body the way it is:

Realize that Stretch Marks are Normal

Stretch marks are a common phenomenon. Everyone gets them and it’s no reason to be embarrassed or ashamed. Young and old, men and women, and even celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez and Scarlett Johansson develop stretch marks for different reasons. Realizing that you’re not alone is the first step. Talking about them with other people might even be a good way to connect over a quirky commonality.

Treat Your Body

By taking care of your body, you are taking care of yourself. It’s worth the extra effort! Doing things such as eating right or having a relaxing spa day improves your self-confidence and leaves you with a positive body-image. You also have the option of using products like Resolve Stretch Mark Cream which work to minimize the formation and appearance of stretch marks. Using a cream is non-surgical, non-invasive, painless, and generally effective! Talking to a dermatologist about your specific stretch marks helps to clarify the exact type of treatment you should seek.

Exercise

Hitting the gym not only improves your health, it improves your body-confidence. Heck, you don’t even need a gym to get moving! Try going for a long bike ride, or catching up with a friend while doing a light jog. After every excruciating sweat sesh, you will find yourself hating the workout less and loving yourself more.

Sport Your Style

Wearing your favorite outfits and expressing yourself is an easy way to improve your relationship with your body. Maybe you’re the type of person that feels best after a new haircut or finding a new hairstyle. Focus on what you can change to look and feel your best, and the rest of the “flaws” you were concentrating on before will hardly matter.

Surround Yourself with Positive People

Being with people who like you for you and not your body is vital. Plus, having company around helps to stay positive! Friends and family can help you realize that you are an important individual. They love you regardless of your appearance, and you can do the same.

These are just a few of the many ways available to embrace your body and your stretch marks. Don’t forget confidence comes from within, and you are beautiful no matter what.
