Nowadays, society imposes us the stereotypes that we must follow to be people adjusted to the fashion of the moment. Many times we observe famous models on the stages showing slender figures and sumptuous dresses, denoting a great security when it comes to perform on the catwalks. Without knowing if this sacrifice violates their mental stability. We see nutritionists selling protein drinks and special foods to gain muscle mass in a short time. Without knowing if these substances are really necessary or harmful for our body. We also see strenuous routines that do not fit to necessities of the diverse consciousnesses that exist in this complex world. We all have bodies capable of doing exceptional things, but not all of us are capable of performing the same feats as others. It would be boring if we all had the same bodies and the same physical skills.
The media bombards us with alarming information about what is right or wrong with our lifestyles. We wonder if it is right what we are doing to stay healthy or not. When we don't get to that lifestyle, we even get depressed if we don't have powerful or sustainable enough self-esteem barriers to keep us whole. There are several programs where we see women with average bodies and some with exceptional figures who underwent various surgeries because they were not happy with what nature gave them. We see programs where doctors with great prowess undo a malpractice performed by doctors or swindlers who did not do their job well, without making a detailed study about whether it was necessary to apply a surgery to that young woman who was unhappy with her physique.
Suicide in these cases is very common, since the fact of not achieving the perfect body is a great stigma that haunts many people. Both men and women. People who perform on the catwalks seek to have extremely thin bodies to enter the special sizes of designers or have bodies with attractive physiognomy to quickly get potential customers of the products they want to promote. Therefore they need to have a special diet, where sometimes they have to limit themselves to eat certain foods or do strenuous routines in gyms to be the sensation of the moment. We also notice this in teenagers who practice bulimia and anorexia in order to lose weight in record time and thus satisfy the demands of their social groups.
We live tied to currents of opinion that instead of adding knowledge and freedom in people, they tie us down and restrict our ability to decide what is right for ourselves. We can eat healthy by following healthy recipes where food is consumed in adequate proportions. Because everything we eat in excess or deficiency is harmful to the body. According to my grandparents' advice. Our body is a temple and we must take care of it if we want it to respond in different situations, good or bad. If we want to obtain an optimal physical condition, we do not have to compare ourselves with high performance athletes, we can impose tangible goals, where we will see significant advances and we can substantially improve our health and way of life. We can be ourselves without having to denigrate us into being plastic individuals. We must be genuine people who seek the well-being of ourselves and our neighbors. Because our emotional stability is much more important than the hurtful opinions that circulate through social media and in the streets when we walk around looking for meaning in this world full of so many shades of opinions. Therefore, it is necessary to have goals that motivate us to move forward and help us to manifest the latent light that resides within us.
