we women can be so hard on ourselves and each other, can’t we? with media blasting us with unhealthy body images from every direction, it can be so hard to stay true to ourself. i find that’s it’s especially difficult in january. the time for new beginnings and when everyone is determined to lose weight, start exercising and get fit. well, if you need a breath of fresh air (who doesn’t?) then i hope you’ll welcome this inspiring app to your phone: body beautiful.

body beautiful is the only iphone app that promotes positive body image and self-esteem among women and girls. it includes inspirational quotes, media articles, videos and tools will help you love your body, plus tons of way to share quotes, articles and videos with the other ladies in your life. allie marie smith, the creator behind body beautiful is actually a dear friend of mine and i know you’re going to fall in love with her and her vision! finally, someone has created an app that helps you love and appreciate your body and give it the respect it deserves!

i have been using body beautiful for several months now, and can’t tell you how precious it is to me. whenever you need a quick pick-me-up, reassuring moment or want to help a friend out it’s full of great resources. i especially love the ‘photo stamp’ feature that lets you imprint encouraging messages on a photo of a friend and send it to them. so sweet!

don’t forget, there will never be a more beautiful you!
