No not gay (lol) Anything that makes me look at myself is good, be it a mirror, a camera or my art... Because it gives me the chance to kick out those misconceptions I carry around and discover who i really am and girls, men love confidence too... confidence is carried in the way you move, dance, talk, smile, touch, think... not the shape of your body Loved this post and I’m a guy! No not gay (lol)

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who goes through this crap. My favorite line is "...That I love being creative, even if it means messing up an old trick because I’m trying to do something new." THANK YOU. It's so completely okay to screw up a move. If we don't screw up, then it means that we're not pushing ourselves and I'm so damn tired of trying to be perfect all the time, not to mention hide from the world the fact that I have (shhh!) cellulite. I'm so tired of hating my body and holding myself to unattainable standards. Right now, I'm trying to simply choose to be good enough. This is fabulous.

BTW, look into "active stretching" for increasing flexibility in the splits. It made a big difference for me, so maybe it can help you too. Good luck! @svarri – thanks!

My favorite. My first reaction: "IS she crazy? Such a hot body and she has low body image moments? Are you for real?" I have to say, I lOVE your body shape, what a great ass! I have those thoughts every time I watch a video of yours lol and I am straight! Imagine what men feel...... Isn't life ironic? I videotaped myself few times and has exactly the same thought process as you described in the article. I went from "what the fuck was I thinking" to "not bad, look at that smile, that was GOOD, let's do it one more time". What videotaping helped me with is becoming aware of how I look, accepting what I cannot change and realizing how much potential I have and that there is room for change. I focused more on how I move, breath, talk and act instead of being fixated on my looks. This helped me to be more in peace and in charge of my emotions. Those moments of low self esteem remind me of a an untamed bull. That's all they are. Nothing more. Ride the bull ladies! And have fun with it :) LOVE this post. My favorite.
