What is body positive?

“My dear body,
So yes, you are far from perfect. But I'm learning to look at you as you are, to see you differently, to simply love you. Often, I damage you, I deny you, I jostle you, while you are always there for me. Whatever happens. I'm also learning that I'm not just you, that I don't just represent you. That we can manage to live together to make a whole, benevolent and sublime."

What is body positive?

Learn to love your body

”Relearn to love your body, its curves, your skin, through massages, a mild soap, and pamper this body envelope that accompanies you on a daily basis. natural and organic beauty , it is also a declaration of love to your body. So, ready to love and cherish it, for better and above all for better? Agreeing on a daily basis, a moment just for yourself, for yourself and for your body, helps us to accept it and love it a little more each day.”

Massage, to love better

”The body massage is a way to declare your love to your body. By massaging the skin, we grasp its contours, perfections and imperfections. We also take the time to sublimate ourselves, for ourselves, and to take care of ourselves. Because our body, whatever its appearance, whatever its image, its size or its measurements, deserves to be taken care of. Just because he doesn't fit a social standard doesn't mean he doesn't deserve attention. The more you pay attention and listen to your body, the more you will see it differently, to learn to love it in the best way. Of course, every day is different, and there are days more than others when you will feel good or worse. And the "bad mood" days are an even better opportunity to concoct a moment just for yourself, with well-chosen treatments, pampering and pleasure.”

Our vision of beauty

There is not just one beauty. Beauty is who we are naturally, our values, our choices. Beauty is a whole. Natural Beauty is benevolent, conscious beauty, listening to itself, its rhythm, its history, which evolves day after day. Natural Beauty is yours, it belongs to you. Every day, you make it your own. There is no standard or definition of Natural Beauty. Be real, be you, you are beautiful and you have the right to say it and above all to think it. To be beautiful is to learn to love yourself, without expecting that from others. Admittedly, there are ups and downs, but you already have all the cards in hand and your whole life ahead of you to bring out your Natural Beauty. So, dear body, I love you a little more each day, in my own way."

Love yourself against all odds

Self love, self-love, is unfortunately not something innate. Feeling good in your body, in your head, in your clothes or in your movements can sometimes be the result of a long journey. Always and everywhere, we are subjected to a “pressure” made of diktats, beauty and thinness. We see photos of sublime models on magazines and on the networks. We are told how to be slim and lose 5 kilos in two weeks to fit into your favorite jeans after the holidays. We are told what type of eyebrow waxing is in vogue, what bag to wear, … And by force we forget ourselves and above all we forget that magazines and social networks are not real life…
Fortunately with the body positive movement , tongues loosen and bodies too! We see models like Ashley Graham pose almost naked, proud of her shapes and Marie Lopez assume her acne on video. And we say to ourselves:“but what strength, but she is beautiful” without realizing that we are like her wives and that we just have to accept our image as they do.
At NUOO, we would like you to love yourself as you are, with or without your love wrists, with or without acne and or without armpit hair! For us, all bodies are beautiful, no matter the size or weight, the human body is magical.

Body positive in action

Look in the mirror and realize that your body carries you every day. It lets you walk, talk, think, work, breathe, love and do so much more! Be grateful for that.
Have fun with make-up and with clothes. If you're feeling woozy, dress comfortably. If you're feeling sexy, dress as is. Assume your forms or your “non” forms! Put on heels for running errands and wear a beanie on oily hair days. It's up to you, it's your body, your appearance and your inner well-being who matter the most!
Take care of yourself with organic and natural cosmetics, treat yourself to the best to feel good. Get ready if you feel like it and not because you have to present a power-point in front of your colleagues.
Move, make your body live and thank it for being such a beautiful machine that works so well!

Body positive is not innate, but it is acquired little by little, day after day. Happiness and well-being is already being at peace with yourself. And then, as Oscar Wilde said:“To love yourself before loving others is the assurance of a long love story.”. So love each other with strength!
