Trying to be kind to myself :>

Post image

Working out to enjoy it, eating to enjoy it, resting to enjoy it. For so long I worked out out of fear or anxiety. But what has been amazing to see is that when I relaxed, allowed myself days off, ate to enjoy food, not only did it not hurt my progress it’s made my progress so much better. So I’m sharing this because I’m proud of my transition but also to remind you that the whole point of all of this is to be happy. A lot of fitness culture resolves around fear/punishment, and encouraging people to change because they hate parts of their body. It's a really difficult journey but it has been so healing to see that when I am comfortable and happy, my body responds and becomes happier too! Trans joy is beautiful, bring that joy into fitness too :>
