While I love the work I do as a Health Coach and the positive, goal-reaching effect it can have on people, sometimes clients just want to feel good in their skin immediately. They do not want to wait the full 6-12 weeks it often takes to create healthy habits or to start feeling good in their skin.

This list of 30 things you can do right now to feel better about your body are just temporary physical, mental, and food related items you can implement if you need a quick body positivity boost. Many of these are also items I recommend my clients use throughout our time working together, though we do implement more mindset work and specific nutrition habits specific to each individual client.
