Why Mindfulness Matters So Much During Covid - One Wear Freedom

Why Mindfulness Matters So Much During Covid

As a result of the Coronavirus Pandemic, for many of us, over the past eight months, our lives have changed drastically.  Whether that be through working from home, socialising less, or not being able to visit loved ones. Our lives are just not same.  Even if we choose to go to shops and restaurants in the quest to find some kind of a norm, everything we do has an added anxiety looming over us.  It’s difficult to really feel ‘carefree’ anymore.

The "Perfect" Body. - One Wear Freedom

The "Perfect" Body.

The perfect body type. Do you fit the ideal? Maybe for a brief period of time, before societal expectations do a U-turn and change the ideal of beauty once again. Society has defined women's beauty for centuries, depicting what a woman "should" be in order to be attractive or desired.
