At the end of the day, there is always something to strive for and there is always something to improve upon—that’s the way our world is set up. But happiness doesn’t come from self-harm or self-abuse or self-delusion. Happiness doesn’t come from restriction and punishment, self-hatred and shame. Happiness doesn’t come from shitting rainbows and pretending that we love ourselves every single day when actually we’re struggling. Happiness comes from honest acceptance, something that body neutrality has the power to help you find.
