Explanation:
This worksheet helps you change negative thoughts about your body into positive, kinder ones. The goal is to notice when you’re being hard on yourself and then find a better way to think about that same thing.
Step 1: Think of something you often say negatively about your body — like “I hate my arms” or “My stomach looks weird.” Write that in the left column.
Step 2: Now, think of one good thing that part of your body does for you — even if it’s small! For example, if you wrote “I hate my legs,” you could write “My legs let me walk to school every day” or “They help me dance with my friends.”
Step 3: Keep going until you’ve filled out several rows. You don’t have to do them all at once — just start with one or two.
Remember: This isn’t about pretending everything is perfect. It’s about balancing the bad thoughts with real, true good things your body does for you.
Final Answer:
To complete this worksheet, fill in each row by writing a negative thought you have about your body in the left column, then write a kind, truthful counter-thought in the right column — focusing on what your body can DO or how it supports you. Example: Left = “I don’t like my hands, they’re too big.” Right = “My strong hands help me carry groceries and hug people I love.”
