It’s amazing how little we do for ourselves. Be nice to yourself-you’re worth it! Think of something you’ve accomplished this week/month/year and reward yourself with positive thoughts and a treat.

The Body Shop have a lovely campaign where they encourage women to grow their self-esteem. Here are some of their pointers:

• Don’t be sucked in by stick thin and airbrushed models. The pictures aren’t a representation of the actual model, let alone your average woman. The Body Shop never air brush the models in their posters or catalogues. They choose models that are not too thin or young and that represent a range of sizes, ages and nationalities.
• Respect yourself, look after your body and soul and be proud of who and what you are.
