Body Positivity

Currently, I’ve been feeling quite content with my body despite the challenges of aging and life experiences. However, it wasn’t always this way. To be honest, for most of my life, I felt disconnected from my own body. I used to say that my body was the biggest obstacle in my life.

During that time, I felt entirely at ease within my mind—thinking, acting, and reacting quickly and sharply. I wasn’t even aware that I was connected to my body until I became ill or experienced physical discomfort. From that perspective, my body was simply a problem. Whenever this issue arose, I wanted to resolve it as swiftly as possible and return to my ideal mental world without any physical disruptions. This approach usually worked, allowing me to live for years without much contact with my physical self—my body.
