Being active and eating healthy makes you slimmer and looking more radiant, wearing the right clothes for your body type and shape can elevate your style and sometimes visually even posture. Often self care and beauty get too mixed up. Someone taking care of themselves and looking well doesn't always mean that they're vain and beauty focused. Simple self care naturally makes you look better.

Our food markets are a bit more commercialized, so even chicken isn't as healthy because they sometimes inject it with saline. Depends where you get it from I guess if we're talking about freshness and quality, but what I'm trying to say is, if you went to the store and got these same meals, it won't be *as* healthy. Ik that's not what y'all are discussing, but it seems worth mentioning that it still may not be "healthy" in today's world.

I think this video is so sad. We DO worry too much about how we look. We have all been told (like in this video, approximately 70 years ago) that being beautiful is something that we should strive for. We think that being pretty makes us confident and feel good, and especially that it will make people like us more. In reality we get anxious about our looks and our confidence is shattered to peaces. We start to think that we are not pretty enough, like she says in the video: you can always be prettier. That is so sad. If we just abandoned the idea that being beautiful is important in any way, we would be so much happier. We would see that there is so much more to us and our personalities than the way we look.

So don't bother at all eh? Applying your logic sounds preposterous. Many people bother with looks because we're social animals. And it truly does give great confidence. To know that you aren't a stinky, rag wearing pathetic little thing, is good. Of course I'm not saying that the obsession with plastering on makeup, or fast fashion, or most things caused by social media are any good. But generally to be well kempt, proffessional when need be, beautiful or handsome when need be, and so on, is incredibly important to healthy self image and social standing, relationships with others be try romantic, work, friendly etc. As for physical appearance for intimate relationships. Without sexual attraction it doesn't quite work does it? Sexual attraction is really about the body and its presentation. The other side of intimate attraction, to a person, also requires physical appearance to be well kept not because society culture mumbo jumbo. But because we naturally seek out those that have it together. If one looks shabby, unkempt etc, they obviously don't have it together. Physical appearances aren't just some useless social construct, they can tell you about a person. What I'm saying is the physical is an extension of the psychological. You're evidently utterly in love with the idea of personality, well the way someone looks tells you a lot about them

I love how she just talks about self care. It’s so nice that she’s educating those girls not just on “Run a couple laps and eat your veggies”, but more like “Make sure to think about what your eating, and spend plenty of time playing outdoors”

I watched this without expecting it to be this wholesome. If it seems outdated, that might be because we've gone too far the wrong way in the years since.

I just turned 20 years old. This advice +school advice helped me realize my laziness. I’ve gained weight and I still have it. I truly want to have fun, even if it’s by myself to lose weight. (I don’t have a lot of friends or my boyfriend who wants to go out n do fun things) I eat well, I love better. Girls, you are worth so much love😲

Maybe I didn't analyze the whole video that well or maybe it's because I only scratched through the surface. But anyway, this was actually a positive view on my side.
