    Hi Kara-Leah.

    I am in this school of thought as well.

    I find that when I think good thoughts at my body it becomes easier, almost automatic, for me to treat it better and use it more.

    Though it is not always easy to make nice about myself, I too feel inspired when I see a confident and pulled-together woman walking down the street.

    Also, Yoga does make you more aware of the magnificent machine that your body is!

    It makes you want to be a better person. 😉

    For Cultivating Beauty there is certainly nothing better than self-love and mindfulness.

    Thanks!

    Blessings,

    Vera Nadine
