25.01.2022 We love our girl @__getitgirl she is such an inspiration & we so much enjoyed having her as part of our role model search here she is as part of our REAL STORIES: I started to recognise how badly I was treating myself. I was consistently finding the things I hated about my body and wanting for those things to change. Then I heard my little sister and my niece saying the same negative things about their bodies at such a young age, it honestly broke my heart. I decided to be ...their role model when it came to body image and be my own my inspiration. I felt more and more comfortable with my body and then started to gain so much more confidence with this new perspective I had. I just want girls to know that they dont need to look like the girl standing next to them. They can stand strong and be there own person and be completely confident in themselves Kayla
23.01.2022 Sexy is for all women, all shapes & sizes. There NO one size fits all in the world & trying convince women otherwise is a lie. Why would we want to all look the same? Dont change yourself to fit in, fit in with who you are in all your uniqueness. Your special kind of weird is what the world needs, be clever, be interesting, tall, short, thin, curvy, green, orange or bloody polka dot, be different & be you!! We LOVE you, all shapes & sizes @curvykate
23.01.2022 "5 hacks to look thin AF in your pics!" OMG WHAT IS THIS? #everyBODYisbeautiful #heartyourbody
23.01.2022 STORIES FROM OUR TRIBE No matter what your size & shape, body image & self love effects all of us, sharing our stories unites & strengths us . To share your story tag us in your pics. Thanks for sharing & being brave @naturally_nina_ One of the biggest struggles Ive faced throughout my teenage years is body dysmorphia. For as long as I can remember I have always been thin, but I didnt think much of it. I remember, still in primary school, always viewing the other girls as... being so much prettier, thinner, and therefore better than me. I never acted on these thoughts, but I felt them... After being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, feeling like I had lost control of my own body through the constant blood sugar monitoring, weighing food, injecting insulin and so much more, an eating disorder snuck into my life. I starved myself, exercised excessively, and punished my body anywhere I could with attempts to regain control somewhere in my life. I become a hollow shell of myself, skeletal. My body was close to its breaking point. Yet all I saw were the layers of fat on my stomach, because I still didnt have abs. Ten years of my life I hated my body. Going through phases of thinking I was disgustingly skinny and looked like a witch, to feeling I was wobbly, flabby and all round hideous. Looking in mirrors made me want to cry. My biggest shift came when I began to appreciate my body for what it could DO, instead of what it looked like. I started fuelling my body with nutritious, wholesome food to FEEL good, instead of look a certain way. I started exercising to CELEBRATE my body + grow stronger, instead of burn myself to the ground. Yes, I gained weight. But I gained SO much more. I gained freedom, energy, vitality, peace, LIFE The message of this post is: Body image issues dont discriminate. They can sneak into anyones life, no matter how heavy they are. Your thoughts are valid. Your struggles are valid. And you arent alone. But most importantly: No matter what you look like, or what you feel, know its YOUR CHOICE to love your body. Start small, start where you are, and I promise it will be the most powerful, life changing action you ever take @ Heart Your Body Perth See more
23.01.2022 R E A L S T O R I E S were excited to share another real story from YOU, our tribe. Being brave & vulnerable makes our circle bigger as we share our stories check out @emma_joan_ Journey: Body image has been a pretty significant challenge for me, as it is for a lot of other women. Being sick added an extra layer of complexity. Ive spent many nights cursing my body, asking it why it betrayed me, how it could cause me so much pain, why my stomach was so bloated and fa...t when I ate healthily. I had painful periods for a long time. And when I say pain I mean pain so bad I can barely move. Plus I had significant gastro-intestinal issues and random pain at other times. I had so much anger towards my body. I discovered a few months ago that all of this was because of endometriosis. I dont know how or why but while I was laying in my hospital bed when I first got my diagnosis, this voice inside me just said this has to stop, its not your fault, its not your bodys fault. And I made the decision to forgive my body and treat it with love and compassion. Its a choice I make. Sometimes its a difficult choice, sometimes its easy. But I refuse to continue the cycle of self-hatred. I vow to love my body and treat it with care, even when it hurts. My body is the only home I have. I also just want to say that being in pain isnt normal, regardless of what you hear from medical professionals. And in particular, your period is not supposed to be debilitating. Keep pushing until youre heard and you get the help and support you need. See more
21.01.2022 Two real bodies & two completely different body shapes...as you can see my bum is eating my bathers as Sylvias bum just sits there like a little peach!! but the point is made, no 2 bodies are the same, so why do we compare? Even doing this shoot we both felt a little nervous for completely different reasons, we both had insecurities the other couldnt even see. Its funny the story we make up in our heads to fit how we feel about our own bodies...this is what leads to comparison, unhappiness and even mental illness. At @heartyourbodyperth we are striving to show more authentic & real images, the bumps, folds, creases & wrinkles, as much as it is a challenge for us, this is bigger than us & we are growing as our tribe grows #iheartmybody Chloe XOX photography by Thomas Dalby

19.01.2022 When I was 5, I sat on the edge of my chair with my legs spread. I felt an itch between them, so I reached down to scratch, but my grandma grabbed my wrist to s...top me and hissed: Girls dont do that! I asked her why, because I had seen my father doing it, I had seen all the boys in primary school doing it, too. And it itched and I wanted to scratch it. Her answer was: Its just how it is. Girls dont do that. Also, dont sit there with your legs spread like that. Girls dont do that, either. When I was 6, I spent a day on the beach with my family. I was excited about the new bikini my mum got me, but confused as to why she asked me to keep the top on when I went for a swim. She hadnt made me wear it the years before, but suddenly, she was very fussy about it. Look, Ive got one on, too., she said to me. And I thought I understood: Women had to cover their breasts, because they were bigger than mens. But I wasnt a woman. I was a child. Later, I overheard a talk she had with my dad. I dont want old men to stare at her., she whispered. I interrupted them and asked her why she thought old men would look at me. Her answer was: Its just how it is. Its because youre a girl. And men do that. When I was 9, I got in a fight with my best friend. I went home and complained about it to my grandma, who lived with us. She told me I should have seen it coming. Thats how girls are., she said. A friendship between girls is always also a competition. Girls are jealous, manipulative and backstabbing. You cant trust them. But I had never fought with my best friend before and I knew wed forgive and forget the next day, anyway. So, I asked my grandma why, and her answer was: Its just how it is. Catfights will happen. Its normal. Thats how girls are. When I was 13, I fell in love with a boy from the neighbourhood. I couldnt hide my excitement. He was on my mind all the time and I caught myself wishing we were together, so I could hold his hand and kiss him, too. I wanted to meet him, get to know him better, and I told my dad about my plan of asking him out. Dont do that., my dad said. Its not appropriate for a girl to ask a boy out. Though I partly agreed, since I had never seen a woman proposing to the man in a movie, or read about a girl kissing her crush first, I still didnt understand what would be so bad about being an exception, so I asked my dad why I had to wait for a boy to show interest in me in order to be allowed to openly requite it. His answer was: Its just how it is, darling. The man makes the first move. Its always been this way. Boys like to conquer, and girls love being chased. When I was 17, I was part of a large group of friends. There was a boy who fancied me. I didnt like him back, but I wasnt used to anyone crushing on me, so I enjoyed the attention. Hed always tell me I was special. One of a kind. Different. Youre not like other girls., he said. Youre not a bitch. Youre funny, laid back, intelligent. You dont just care about your nails or your hair. You get my sense of humour. Youre not like most girls. Youre my best guy friend. But with tits. I was flattered in the beginning, but soon, I started to wonder if his compliments were any at all. I began to feel disgusted with him. I didnt want to be his best guy friend with tits. So I asked him whats so good about a girl like me, a girl unlike what he called a typical one, and his answer was: Thats easy to explain. A pretty model type of girl is good enough to jack off to, but in the end, a guy wants some drama free pussy. Youre an exception. The majority of girls is superficial and slutty. The kind of girl you fuck, but dump when youre ready to settle down. Or theyre just plain boring and prude. This sounds harsh, but its just how it is. When I was 19, there was a boy I regularly had sex with. It was nice. Not the breathtaking kind of passionate, ecstatic fucking I had dreamed of; maybe we lacked chemistry, maybe it would have been nicer if we had been in love; but I was alright with it. I adapted, obeyed and swallowed. Of course I did. In the beginning, he really put an effort in giving me what I gave him. He really tried. But his attempts at putting his tongue to good work quickly faded into halfheartedly rubbing me dry and at some point, he said: Im giving up. I asked him why. His answer was: Its so hard to get a girl off. You women need ages to cum. Its so exhausting. I laughed and told him I needed about two minutes when I did it on my own. Then stick to that., he said. Ive got a cramp in my wrist. Women are so complicated. Its just how it is. Im sorry. I am 20 now, and Ive come to realize that my female identity has been shaped by a biased, hypocritical excuse based on ridiculous gender roles: Its just how it is. All my life, I have asked them why, and all they said was Its just how it is. And it didnt matter whether Ive asked men or women. Internalized misogyny is just as harmful. There were as many women as men who said: Its just how it is. But that is not the answer I wanted. Not the answer I needed. These few words dont fucking answer the countless questions concerning my gender identity. Why cant I sit with my legs spread? Whats so shameful about what I keep between them? Why must I cover my breasts? Why am I being sexualized long before Im even told when sex is? Why am I being taught to mistrust other girls? Why do I have to compete with other girls? Why am I only a good girl when Im not like most girls? Why do I have to keep quiet about the way I feel? Why am I not allowed to show affection like men do? Cant I conquer a boys heart, too? Why must love be about conquering, anyway? What if I dont like being chased? What if it scares me? Why do boys scare me, anyway? Why do you make me feel inferior to them? And why do I have to like a boy in order to be liked? Why am I being shamed for being a slut, them shamed for being prude? Why am I expected to adapt, obey and swallow without praise when boys who return the favour are considered grateful, dedicated lovers, heroes, almost ,because to the majority of them, its not fucking understood that if I make them cum, they should make me cum, too? Why am I exhausting to be with? Why am I complicated? Is it because Im a bitch? Because Im an oversensitive little baby? Is it because Im a slut? A prude virgin? Is it because Im on my period? Cause women are just crazy? Cause I am jealous, manipulative, backstabbing, competitive or any of the other countless negative traits that are immediately connected with the female identity? All summed up, is it because Im a girl? Ive asked them. And they said yes. And when I asked But why?, they said it again: Its just how it is. It is that context, is a never ending circle of resigning acceptance of the circumstance that girls are being raised to disrespect their own gender from their childhood on. I was, and am, expected to accept the fact that being female automatically makes me inferior, and that I should be thankful for being treated equally, because thats not the standard. I was, and am, expected to appreciate and take it as a compliment when people tell me that Im not like other women. Because I was, and am, expected to look down on women even though I am a woman myself. But I refuse. I refuse to adapt, obey and swallow. I refuse to accept that its just how it is. I refuse to take this as an answer, and I will not stop asking why. I wont ever stop asking why. Not because I want people to give me a proper response, but because I want them to question themselves, too. I want them to start wondering. Want them to start doubting the concept of the role Ive learned to stick to before I knew how to spell my typically female name. I want them to think about it, lose their sleep about it, until they ask, too: Why? In order to eliminate misogynic stereotypes, we must unlearn to understand them. We must refuse to accept Its just how it is as an answer, until we forget what it stands for. Keep asking why, until nobody knows an answer anymore. Its just how it is is not an answer. Neither is Its cause youre a girl. Or Thats how girls are. Because girls can be everything and anything they want to be. Thats how it really is. Mia Morgan, I REFUSE! A rant on how my female identity has been shaped by excuses and lies

19.01.2022 GUT, POT BELLY, SPARE TIRE, BEER BELLY!! Here we are trying to show some gut folds for ya, some normal lady gut action! But not quite getting there...when I was younger I was one of those annoying people who could eat what ever I wanted and I was still a stick with a washboard stomach. In my early 20s I had a terrible fall during a dance rehearsal which changed the path of my life forever. I was dropped on my back, I couldnt walk properly for a year, went through painful re...habilitation & recovery and was told I was close to being a cripple & should look at surgery...ie putting steel rods in my back. So I made my own rehab...Pilates, yoga, chiro & massage, this what made the difference. This is why I do what I do & Im obsessed with alignment, posture & yoga therapy. Anyways, after the accident, my whole body changed, apparently the part of my spine I injured directly related to gut enzymes & digestion. So I developed this little friend (pouch, gut, keg, roll, belly, pot belly, spare tire, beer belly...and so on) since then Ive always been self conscious about it, its always there even when Im super slim. But this year something changed, I turned 40, and I started give much less of a F*#k about what anyone thought of me, I kinda like my curvy bits, Ive made friends with the body Im in. When I look at photos now, my perception is very different, my idea of PERFECT is different, what concerns me is the idea of our bodies (as women) we carry around in our minds, our perception is often not correct. I dont see your flaws and I wonder if you see mine? Are these FLAWS much bigger in our own heads because we compare too much? Have we as women developed a collective state of body dysphoria?

17.01.2022 Be fierce in the pursuit of what makes you HAPPY. You deserve peace, kindness, self love & love from others. Its not self fish to seek out the things that set your heart on fire, everyone deserves happiness
17.01.2022 Every BODY is beautiful. We should have the freedom to choose how we express our bodies in society and be free of judgement. #iheartmybody
16.01.2022 you deserve to love yourself give yourself permission to self love and care. You are your first priority, always we acknowledge this is so hard to accept in modern society, especially as a mother, daughter, sister, partner, wife.... we feel the pressures to put others first. Remember that putting yourself first (or at least higher up on your list!) is not selfish, its necessary art by @lauraklinke_art
15.01.2022 Hi its Chloe and Sylvia here in this photo! Every BOOTY is beautiful. Normalizing differences in bodies lets move away from the unrealistic body expectations we lay on ourselves based upon false perfection seen on socials, media, magazines. We are in our 30s and 40s, yes our bodies have changed over time but this is a reflection of our journeys in life so far. Lets celebrate our bodies for what they can do, lets celebrate who we are and please, lets celebrate that every BODY is different and unique. We all have lumps, bumps, lines... this is part of being human. photo by @chisaii.san

12.01.2022 Skinny verses more curvy...I used to wonder why I didnt have a thigh gap? I mean is that even normal?? As a women, are my thighs supposed to touch? I remember being a teenager and looking at magazines and wondering this question. These among others, are the questions as women we all ask ourselves when looking at media images...magazines, instagram, fb, tv or anything that is put in our faces that represents the norm? We are conditioned to question ourselves, to ask and com...pare am I normal & is my body acceptable and of course am I or will I ever be beautiful because I dont fit that stereotype these an many other internal thoughts have caused us as women to become obsessed with THE EXTERNAL APPEARANCE as being the ultimate beauty. We have prodded, needled, enhanced, tattooed, cut, sucked away, & covered up. Its not our fault, somewhere along the way the selfie has become QUEEN in a world that values image rather than content. I dont know about you, but when I get to know someone they either become more beautiful or just the opposite. In my mind I look for qualities that far exceed what stares back when you look in the mirror. Wouldnt it be wonderful if as women we decided to fight back & worship qualities rather than physical appearances? wouldnt it be amazing if the next generation of women grew up feeling content, comfortable in their own skin, & were taught to to love & accept them selves & each other, rather than compare? Whats much more beautiful to me is kindness, compassion, inclusion, community, support, humour, gentleness & confidence. Lets lift out selves & others to belong & create a movement of self love & love for others. #iheartmybody Pees out HYB tribe Chloe XOX

10.01.2022 Im not exactly sure what we are doing here with our hand?!?! But lets just say we look super cool just a couple of dorks hanging at the beach. This was out shoot for our #iheartmybody campaign with Thomas Dalby where we wanted to do some REAL images with no editing or airbrushing. All the creases, wrinkles, & folds are real and we own them. One of the biggest lessons we learnt from doing this shoot was that we had nowhere to run, we were literally half naked in the bright ...open sunshine at the beach & we both talked about the bits we wanted to cover up. The thing is, we both wanted to cover up the bits the other wanted!! Sylvia wanted my boobs & I wanted her washboard abs?!?! So where does it end? COMPARISON is the killer of al joy, when we constantly compare ourselves to others there is NO room for self love, NO room for acceptance and NO room for happiness. And isnt happiness what we are all after? I know for me its the ultimate goal, its the way I make decisions and live my life. Try not to waste anymore time comparing yourself to others & telling you self youre not enough. YOU ARE TOTALLY ENOUGH where ever you come from & what ever your story is See more
