Body Confidence

Looking around these days at women in their forties and beyond it is shocking how few make the actual effort to look smart.

This is so sad, as it says, I don’t care about myself and my appearance and therefore there is no need to make an effort.

Sadly so many women have allowed their body to get seriously out of shape.  This must be such a strain on the heart.  It is also dangerous in regard to strokes, diabetes and other complications especially as we get older as we may not realise but an accumulation of fat around the inner organs can be life threatening without us ever knowing about it unless we have a thorough check up.  These are the secret killers.

How has it come to this.  There seems to me a total lack of self-discipline and self-control and too many convenience foods consumed on a regular basis which seems a problem unique to the US and some countries in Europe.

It is difficult to follow any fashion if our body is not in the shape it should be.  A few pounds too much here and there do not matter as long as the shape is still good and these can be shifted with controlled eating.

However, where the body has gone vastly out of shape, is where the danger lies.  It took years to get to this and will take years to lose.  This is where many women lose patience and give up when weight loss does not occur too fast.

We are bombarded with warnings by doctors and the medical professional body in general on a daily basis about the result of such indulgence, yet we go on eating and taking very little exercise, driving everywhere too when it would be so easy to walk the extra mile or two and so healthy out in the fresh air.

It seems that the majority of the population in the Western World has taken  ‘leave of it’s senses’.

What is to be done about this epidemic?  Experts have tried to work it out but have not reached a conclusion.  It seems only the onset of illness will make people realise how far they have gone.  The tragedy is that these people allow their children to become clones of their enormous selves while still young.

In the developing world, people are starving, not through our fault, much money and resources are given to them year after year and nothing ever changes.  But this is only to highlight how we in the Western world are overdoing things by eating way more than the body ever needs.

Although, Mature Women Style is largely the subject here but ultimately it concerns men too, especially as it addresses self-control and looking after a healthy body.

It would appear that pride in the appearance has disappeared for many people.  And this pride should be restored it is not unique to women but men too albeit on a lower scale.  Coaching should be encouraged to support people with low self-esteem to take charge of their lives for it is only when we do this that things will change.  For many people, there seems no way out of this vicious cycle.

As an example, experiments with young offenders have shown that with proper guidance they can  turn their lives around very often and see the effect it has had on their lives. The same principle should be applied when it comes to tackling obesity.  The fact that people have let themselves go can be a sign of drifting in their lives or depression or other causes which should be addressed with professional help and encouragement.  Equally an addiction to eating needs professional help to get back on track.  This does not only apply to women but men as well.  Sometimes we have come to a place where it seems a waste of time to make an effort and after trying it can be a case of, hey, there is light at the end of the tunnel.  We can all achieve when we believe in ourselves and this self-belief has to be nurtured.  If parents have failed to do this then we have to seek out someone who can give us this.  Our life as mature adults is our responsibility, so is what we eat and how we live.  We are all born rich with faculties at our disposal unless we are unfortunate enough to have a disability and so many people with disabilities achieve outstanding success.  Take the example of the soldier who served in Afghanistan and lost both his legs in a blast and is now raising money for Charity.

There is so much to live for and we must try to treat our body with the kindness it deserves by eating sensibly and taking back control.

To improve our life, we must look at the four areas of Life:  Appearance, Relationships, Health and Environment and determine where we need to change things.  Explore where you are in life and what could be improved.  If weight is the problem, make a start and feel the confidence that comes with doing something for your ‘Self’.

Delegate tasks if in a family or group situation, or at work.  Believe that the cup is always half full, not half empty and train yourself to think positive of situations and people and you will feel much better in the process.

Before you can get back to a stylish self, you have to address the issues that have held you back.  If you need help seek out the help of a coach or read books on the subject of self-improvement.  We can all improve but we must want to.
