National Love Your Body Day is celebrated throughout America.
National Love Your Body Day is celebrated by all the women in the United States.
The first National Love Your Body Day was celebrated on September 25, 1998.
National Organization of Women started National Love Your Body Day.
Let's get familiar with some of the significant events that led to the formation of National Love Your Body Day. This day is meant for people to celebrate love, kindness, and acceptance. It also creates awareness about how women have been viewed in society since time immemorial.
The National Love Your Body Day is celebrated by women who face challenges in their daily life. They share their story and body image to inspire others and celebrate the special day.
The media also plays a vital role in social stigmas. This campaign provides space for women and girls who want to share their problems. It also gives space to other women who can find solutions to all these problems.
This day is celebrated by women who post their positive body image and boldly share inspiring stories of their struggles. The NOW Foundation helps to spread positivity through sharing photos of the beautiful bodies of women who suffer from diseases, including eating disorders, to encourage women to celebrate Love Your Body Day. From their stories, girls from other parts of the world get their ability to stand up against the social definition of beauty.
Alongside establishing a day to celebrate our bodies and the way we look, the NOW foundation also works for women's reproductive freedom and the rights of a daughter.
The aim of this day is synonymous with NOW's message that in society, a woman's actual value can be measured through her strong willingness to personify current beauty levels and promote good health among women.
NOW Foundation celebrates National Love Your Body Day in the middle of October on the third Wednesday of the month to make women feel good about themselves.
In research conducted by NOW in 2012, it was reported that 80% of women in the U.S. are not happy with how they look. This seriously contributes to body image issues. NOW created the 'Love Your Body' campaign to challenge the prescribed social norms and change how women are portrayed based on skin color, weight, and other criteria.
Although there is no such day, February is regarded as the month of Body Positivity.
Love Your Body campaign takes the initiative to encourage women and make them feel positive about themselves. It also questions the skewed media representation of women.
The best ways to combat the beauty standards set by society are by indulging in radical self-love and body love. Believing in yourself and focusing on individuality will boost your confidence.
This campaign creates awareness about the various health issues, including eating disorders of women and how the pressure of society compels body insecurities amongst many young girls. It helps to encourage women and boost their self-esteem.
Women are promoting this day by sharing their healthy body images and inspiring stories of their struggles in life.
The limitations in celebrating this day are set by the negative ways of viewing women and their bodies through media. Women are expected to look like perfect models, as seen in magazines or the entertainment industry. Due to the unrealistic beauty template and society's expectations, many women fail to participate in the celebration.
National Organization for Women Foundation influenced this day to celebrate every body type and promote self-love.
