There aren't many people around who don't have some body image issues. There's always something we dislike about ourselves - our hair; our nose; or perhaps the size of our boobs - too big or too small! No one is ever satisifed. So here's an affirmation for building self esteem.

Find a picture of yourself that you really like. It doesn’t matter what age you are – it can be a baby photo, provided it shows you happy and enjoying yourself. Buy or make an especially nice frame for it. Decorate it however you please. Place the photo where you will see it often, saying, “I like myself the way I am – I build self esteem in everything I do.” Whenever you catch sight of it, repeat this affirmation for self empowerment.
