She started it on the back of a photo she saw of the Kardashians with each of their weights attached to it. She says the aim is not necessarily to promote body positivity but "life positivity" and to encourage people to be grateful for and proud of the things they have/do/are, and not to feel their worth lies in their appearance. The idea is to choose a photo of yourself and write down words around it that relate to aspects of your life you are grateful for/proud of/that make you happy. It could be a nice exercise to do, it doesn't have to include photographs, it could just be done on coloured paper etc.]]> 2019-01-14 17:04:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ailbhemccarthy7/ca3fwgntlyux/wish/320400133 ailbhemccarthy7 https://padlet.com/ailbhemccarthy7/ca3fwgntlyux/wish/320655280 Non-uniform day/colourful piece of clothing ( could also raise money for charity?)
