Food • Clothing • Life

 

OK, so everyone sick and tired of being good, please raise your hand!

I’m with you!!! Being good, following rules has never worked for me. The other day I made a sign and hung it up on my refrig that says, “Let’s be outrageous for the rest of our life!” How can we let go of being good and move into being outrageously on our own side?

Well, we can let go of only eating food labeled, “good” and start eating the foods we REALLY want. We can stop moving in ways we hate, ways that feel like punishment, and start moving for fun, silliness, play! Hula hoops, adult ballet (Yes to tutus and tiaras), horse-back riding, bikes with streamers, whatever our little selves desire.

And what if we stopped wearing clothes some fashion pundit says we “should” wear because we’re this age or this size? What if we wore what we liked, what’s comfortable and what makes us happy? What if we dressed to express ourselves and not to please…Anyone?

Maybe it’s time to break rules, to be outrageously ourSelves & make a manifesto—

“I’m taking a stand for—pleasing myself, enjoying myself, no explanations, no apologies.” If you needed  permission, this is it!!!

What are you ready to take stand for?
