I began my campaign for “REAL Beautiful” in December of 2009 to make a statement on behalf of all women so that they could feel good about saying, “I am not perfect I am REAL Beautiful!”
The purpose and meaning behind this statement is to help free women of all ages from the narrow perspectives our society has about living and being REAL BEAUTIFUL! Various forms of media and social learning demand PERFECTION in all realms of being; when health and well being should be the mandate to help protect and preserve women’s lives. Unfortunately, we learn without consent, through observation and through hidden & less overt messages in & from music, television, videos, magazines, images, ...even from our parents & peers!!
Messages in the media tell women they need to be PERFECT [thin, flawless, pretty, and expose themselves] to attain any level of acceptable BEAUTY or POPULARITY…TO FEEL GOOD ENOUGH! This message is making women of all ages sick...literally.
Health concerns related to lower levels of confidence, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and chronic stress are impacting the healthy growth and development of our female population.
I feel it is time for our society to stand up and re-educate women, young & old, about more REAL approaches for self acceptance….before it’s too late!
Join me in my campaign to raise levels of media awareness and to help women celebrate being “REAL Beautiful” for a CHANGE & for BETTER HEALTH!
