Stop Making Excuses-Your Deserve A Boudoir Shoot
When we doubt ourselves, we make excuses. We make excuses as to why we shouldn’t love ourselves, accept ourselves, or even take care of ourselves. Sometimes life is just busy, we have too much work to deal with, or we have responsibilities and always need to do something for anyone else who isn’t us.
Sometimes it’s more important to us to spend time with our significant other, or our kids, or our friends. We also use excuses like “but I want to lose 10 lbs first!” or “I just don’t have the money right now” or “I’m going to do it just not yet.” I wanted to write this to explain to you that regardless of your excuse you CAN do it! No matter what excuse you have to present to me I will show you that you are worthy of self love.
“I don’t have time for myself.” It is also Important to remember that if you aren’t considering your mental health and taking care of yourself within, you will not be able to handle doing all the things for everyone else. Can’t fill from an empty cup remember?
I know it is easier said than done. Sometimes I too am the worst at making sure I am giving myself mental health breaks and that is why I am sharing this with you. I make the same excuses as I listed above and sometimes I just need to snap myself out of it, look myself in the mirror and say “ SLOW DOWN, take a deep breath, and give yourself a break!”
Your boudoir shoot is a day that is scheduled ALL for you. A few hours where all the focus is on you, you can finally breathe, and release. Think of all the energy you will save on a daily basis if you stop worrying so much about what everyone else thinks about you and if you stop comparing yourself to all the unrealistic women you see on social media. You finally get to see your beauty shine through and a huge mental weight is lifted. It really is an emotional experience.
You need this time for yourself. Come have an amazing day getting all glammed up and feeling beautiful.
“But my body is not where I want it to be right now.” Do you know that the body type portrayed all over social and advertising is naturally only possessed by only 5% of American females? Only 5!
I will repeat myself over and over again but WHY do you have to be a certain size to love yourself? WHY do you have to fit a cookie cutter social standard of beauty to love your own body? Why do you spend time comparing yourself to other women when ALL women are different and even the ones who you perceive as perfect have their own insecurities?
I think it’s amazing to have goals and want to be fit and healthy, but doesn’t that mean you have to hate your body while you’re on that journey? Def NOT! You should love yourself every part of the say and be proud of where you are so that you can be proud of where you end up and how you got there. Have a boudoir shoot to celebrate where you are now, and then have another one in the future to celebrate how far you’ve come.
“I never feel sexy anymore so I can’t imagine doing a boudoir shoot.” WRONG. This excuse is the exact reason you SHOULD do a boudoir shoot. We often lose touch with our feminine energy and our sexual energy because of all the life things-work, kids, health, money, etc. It happens to all of us and it is ok. A great way to reconnect with this side of ourselves is to do a boudoir shoot and reignite that spark within us. I can remind you that it’s still in there and it may even help relight a spark with you and your significant other!
Another thing to remember is that you don’t have to wear lingerie if it’s not your thing. There are many options to wear that aren’t typical lingerie and I can help you choose.
“A boudoir shoot is an investment and I don’t have that money right now.” Yes you are right, it is definitely an investment —in yourself. This investment is one that goes toward your well being and confidence which is priceless. In order to book your shoot there is a session fee but after that you can pay in increments if it helps so you don’t have to pay all at once.
