Many women have physical complexes, but large breasts are more of a challenge. In addition to the potential health problems it can cause and discomfort, it can be psychologically uncomfortable. Incidentally, women with large breasts are also more prone to unwanted and unpleasant attention. If you have a hard time accepting this, you can do a lot to improve your body image, dress in a way that enhances your body, and consider different solutions to possibly reduce the size of your breasts.
Steps
Method 1 of 3: Enhance Your Image
Step 1. The size of your bra must not affect the quality of your life
It is important to remember that breast size or other physical characteristics cannot define you as a person. Instead of having worries or worries about how your breasts are perceived on the outside, consider the qualities and traits that make you unique and beautiful.
When doing this, try not to just think about your physical appearance. Above all, consider your personality and the traits of your character that make you special
Step 2. Stop making negative comments about your bra size, but also about that of other women
This attitude would hinder the path to accepting your breasts and improving your image. Hold back before making comments or having negative thoughts about your own body or that of others.
- Often talking about your breasts can become a bad habit, even an obsession that will prevent you from accepting this aspect of your body.
- You shouldn't make negative comments about other people's bodies - you definitely don't want others to comment about your physique. Also, according to several researches, if you use negative terms to talk about someone else's body, your mind will internalize this message and direct it to yourself.
Step 3. Prepare for unwanted attention and stereotyping
Unfortunately, for cultural reasons, society often mistakenly assumes that women with large breasts are sexually promiscuous and unintelligent. Be prepared to face these situations early and counter their negative implications.
- Many women with large breasts often receive unwanted male attention. When necessary, don't be afraid to stand up and report inappropriate behavior to a teacher, supervisor or the police. It is also helpful to take a self-defense course and carry a pepper spray in your bag.
- Prepare an appropriate response for rude comments or sexual advances, so you'll be ready to fight back even when you're caught off guard.
- Preferring conversations about classes, business and work allows you to look like an intelligent woman, this way it will be more difficult to be mistaken for a sex object.
- Some women have said that talking about their mothers or grandmothers leads men to see them more as daughters or sisters than as sexual objects. With any luck, the men you deal with will adjust their attitudes accordingly.
- If possible, carefully avoid these situations, keep a safe distance from people who commodify the female body and make you feel bad about yourself.
Step 4. When you have negative thoughts, use positive affirmations
If you start to think of your breasts in negative or derogatory terms, try immediately substituting these thoughts and making them positive. For example, if at a certain moment you think your breasts are too big, remember that some models of dresses or suits are very flattering.
Write these positive affirmations on post-its, then stick them in the mirror, put them in your wallet or purse. They will help you feel more confident and make you feel good about yourself
Step 5. Get rid of images that make you view your breasts negatively
Television, movies, magazines, video games, toys, articles and the internet constantly present images of idealized bodies. It is therefore easy to compare your body, especially your breasts, to these photos and think you are not perfect. Avoiding images that make you feel bad about yourself can help you accept your breasts.
Thinking that you can completely avoid exposing yourself to these images is unrealistic, but minimizing exposure will help you fight social pressure, so don't compare your breasts and body to models that aren't natural
Step 6. Avoid people who make you feel bad about yourself
If someone makes negative comments about your breasts or accentuates your complexes, try explaining to them how you feel. They may not realize that their comments or behavior hurt you.
If talking to this person makes you uncomfortable or you find that they ignore your concerns, it would be best to avoid continuing to associate with them. Instead, surround yourself with people who help you feel good about yourself and your body
Step 7. Try to meditate
Meditation can help you reject and eliminate negative thoughts. As soon as you happen to have a hard time, try sitting for 5-10 minutes, close your eyes and focus on your breathing.
To accept your breasts and prevent negative thoughts from becoming more powerful, repeat positive phrases about your body during meditation, such as "I love and accept my body." Then, breathe deeply and repeat as needed
Step 8. Remember that you are not alone
Many women report having a hard time accepting their breasts and feeling good about themselves. As a result, you shouldn't feel isolated or alone.
You could join an online support network, forum, chat or group on a social network dedicated to this topic or exteriority in general. You will then be able to talk to women who are experiencing similar struggles to yours. This will help you feel less alone and is a great opportunity to learn, but also to share tips aimed at accepting and promoting a healthy image
Step 9. Be patient
Improving your body image and accepting your breasts won't happen overnight. If you are patient and understanding with yourself, the process will be more effective.
If you continue to worry about your breasts or other image problems, you may want to talk to a psychologist. He will be able to offer support and guide you towards self-acceptance
