Bodies are beautiful at every size. Peoples’ bodies aren’t good or bad, right or wrong—they’re just different. And it’s the diversity of bodies that adds to their beauty.  You can’t compare your body to someone else’s because your body isn’t meant to look like any other body. There will always be someone thinner or heavier than you. Someone shorter or taller. Someone more attractive by someone’s standards or less attractive by another’s. Someone with smaller or bigger hips. Someone with a flatter or rounder stomach. Someone older or younger. But there will never be another you. So celebrate what makes you different. It’s what makes you beautiful.

You can’t compare your body to someone else’s because your body isn’t meant to look like any other body.

There will always be someone thinner or heavier than you.

Someone shorter or taller.

Someone more attractive by someone’s standards or less attractive by another’s.

Someone older or younger.

But there will never be another you.

So celebrate what makes you different.

It’s what makes you beautiful.

About The Movement:

My name is Daniell, and I am the creator of the Internal Acceptance Movement (I. A.M.)

Need support? Have a question?

  • Ask me anything
    • I'm here and I care.

    The Internal Acceptance Movement is an online space that advocates self-acceptance, healthy body image, recovery from self-destructive behaviors and addictions, and the acceptance of all people, regardless of what they look like, who they identify as, what they have been through, and where they come from. I. A.M. is a space that offers support to those battling their inner demons and strength to continue fighting when all hope seems to be gone.

    I. A.M. represents the idea that as human beings, we aren't defined by anything external, such as our weight, appearance, body shape, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, clothing choices, income, occupation, or background. But that instead, it's our internal qualities--our character and attitude, our passions and dreams, our soul and spirit, our heart and capacity to love, our goals and morals, and the way in which we treat others--that are truly self defining.

    Whether you're battling an eating disorder, self-harm, alcoholism, drug addiction, depression, PTSD, low self-esteem, anxiety, self-hating thoughts, poor body image, or any other mental health condition or self-destructive behavior, I. A.M. exists to remind you that you are NOT alone in how you feel or what you're going through; that it's okay to not be okay, and that you don't have to face this pain alone; that things can and will get better; that healing and recovery are possible; that there is nothing wrong with who you are; the who you are is enough; and that you are deserving of happiness, love, and acceptance, always.


    I'm here if you need me: whether it's support, someone to vent to, a question, or you just want to say hi--know that this is a safe place and that you aren't alone. If I don't respond immediately, know that I'm not ignoring you. I will message you back at my earliest convenience. If you have an emergency or feel that you want to hurt yourself, please, please call 911. I'm not a therapist or a mental health professional of any kind. If you're in danger, you need to ask for help from people who can adequately support you. Sending you love: Daniell
