10 body -positive influencing factors that will follow 2021

Hello dear ones, Aisha Nash here, and today I would like to introduce you to my favorite body-positive influencer on Instagram ...

But first a little about body positive and where the term comes from. Strangely enough, this has nothing to do with self -love. There are two completely different concepts. Self -love is the concept of loving and accepting yourself as they are. This is a big goal that you have to work towards, while body positivity is a whole movement based on the acceptance of all bodies, regardless of body type or appearance.

body positivity is a social movement that was first shaped in the 1960s. However, some researchers have found that the movement emerged much earlier from the Victorian period with the Victorian Dress Reform Movement. This movement was about putting an end to women who had to change their appearance through corsets, which led to negative health results. There was an outcry all over Europe after the acceptance of female body types.

In the 1960s, the first wave of the body of positive movement was shaped to describe the protests that occur. These protests were about accepting fat people. People who start writing about fat discrimination and weight and weighting and how they have affected their lives in every respect, from the search for suitable clothing to the discrimination against doctors to the refusal of jobs due to their body type. This inspired the founding of the National Association to promote fat arithmetic disceptance (NAAFA) in the USA.

The NAAFA wanted to highlight the differences between weight and health and people who live in fat bodies that were discriminated against due to what was discriminated against. Inspired by this work, the treatment model "Health for every size" was accepted and examined. The health and every size model focuses on health -promoting behaviors that are not particularly related to weight loss.

The second wave of the body positive movement took place in the 1990s, and we are currently living in the third wave of movement, which has become much more accessible due to social media activists and large companies that benefit from this movement. Even Mattel, the makers of Barbie, released a body positive line of barbie dolls called Fashionistas.

Against this background, I wanted to introduce you to my current favorite body positive influencers and activists. These people hold on to the celebration of all bodies and really embody the idea that body positivity is so much more than quippy self -love quotes and toxic positivity. There is no specific order here:

I worship this woman and I honestly think that she should be a well -known name. Within the London Yoga scene, this woman was committed to Bipoc yoga teachers in all great yoga studios. Now that she is based in LA, she spends her time to highlight topics related to breed, cultural appropriation and that yoga is really for all bodies.

nyome is a model activist after photos of her have been constantly censored by Instagram. With the help of Gina Martin to hold Instagram for her guidelines, she led a campaign (#iwanttoseenyome) to be folded into, the people who live in fat bodies unfair. So far, Nyome has caused real changes in social media and has even been presented in the Vogue magazine.

Virgie is a fat activist. Writer and wears many hats. In her podcast 'Rebel Eater’s Club' she talks about the reality of life in a fat body and has written two incredible books, one for adults and one for teenagers. After reading both, I really wished I had your wise advice and wisdom on my side when I was a teenager who felt like a brown -skinned person who didn't fit.

Article, known as Arti Online, is a power package of an individual and has created an amazing community by using Instagram and Patreon. She speaks openly and openly about self -love, body positive, racism and everything in between. She also spends a lot of time to work for a broader representation and accessibility in the fitness industry.

pixie is a co-moderator of a podcast entitled "In Bad Taste", which is about emphasizing and correcting the pseudosciences that are offered in the so-called wellness documentaries. If that weren't enough, this nutritionist is a reformed "wellness wicher" and is now training as a psychotherapist. I really recommend if you want to learn more about how our habits have changed through the emergence of social media to read your book 'The Insta-Food Diet'-for those who are wondering, it's not a diet book.

Leila is magic in person. I know that sounds like exaggeration, but she even calls herself a priestess, so I think it's okay to call her magically. There are some yoga teachers who want to be their boyfriend out close, and then there are some who change their lives through their existence. Because in the way you live and go, model a lifestyle that you have never thought of. A kind of being soft and strong at the same time. A way of existing in this modern world and still living in the cycles of nature. From pure frustration, Leila called on the world to create Yogis of Color in London, and because of this campaign, so many beautiful room circles were created, so many distant dreams have been made.

Jade is the woman who allowed me to regain the term body positive. This term was abused by companies and wellness experts for a long time, and to fight this, Jade carried out an amazing campaign called #Reclaimingbopo. Jade is an artist, lawyer for mental health and life consultant who created an amazing community with events and workshops to build up a better relationship with our body via Facebook.

I love this woman. It is fascinating, full of charisma and has created a platform called YogaForeeveryone.tv, on which it makes yoga accessible and affordable for every body and affordable. As a yoga teacher, this woman inspires me every day to make my offers more accessible, and she is simply the best person ever - follow her and I guarantee that you feel the same way.

Molly is a writer, speaker and activist and is loud to change the advertising for diets and products for weight loss in children and adolescents. She organizes workshops for parents to find out about the upbringing of Body Happy children, and has just announced her new book (in which I am quoted and that I look forward to)!

Marybeth founded disabled girls who lift, the podcast and the platform, which highlight the unpleasant conversations and truths, which we all have to think about in terms of fitness industry and how inaccessible it is for people with disabilities. Marybeth has found that strength training is an astonishing source of joy and authorization, and wants the LGBTQ + community benefit from its advantages.

If there are great people from whom you believe that I missed them from this list, please sit down with us in connection @theaishanash on Instagram. I saw through so many books during the blocking that I am always grateful for further reading recommendations!
