How to Feel More Confident with Slendertone

Slendertone Abs Belt

Even the most self assured of us sometimes feels a little less than 100% confident. I always find this especially true when it matters most – before a holiday or a big event, the self-doubt starts creeping in. Is my hair on point? Skin looking at its best? And am I feeling body confident? So as we plan the last of the summer getaways, I thought I’d share some of my favourite ways to feel on top of the world.

First and foremost, the easiest way to feel 100% more confident is to smile. You know that phrase, ‘smile and the world smiles with you’? It’s so true, just a smile and everything seems a little better, you feel more positive about just about everything and the best of it all – it’s free! And once you feel better about stuff, anything else that you might have been worrying about seems to fade away and you actually begin to enjoy yourself. Which just feeds into your confidence even more. See where it all started – with just a smile.

Sometimes, all it takes a quick blow dry, a slick of a bright lipstick and a spritz of my favourite perfume to make me feel I can face the day. Even when I might be full of lots of niggling insecurities inside, the right clothes, makeup and a pair of killer heels can almost feel like putting on a protective armour. In essence, I guess I’m saying present the best version of yourself, whatever that version means for you. For instance, I HATE the feeling wearing of shapewear like Spanx, but I know my insecurities, and I know that if I feel that my tummy isn’t looking as flat as it should in that body-con dress, I’ll jolly well wear that Spanx and make sure I’m feeling as confident as heck for that big event. Using my Slendertone Connect Abs Belt has helped me so much too – just knowing that my abs have been toned the right way gives me that added confidence I need. We all, each of us, have our own insecurity that’s personal to us; the trick is not let it get to you. Identify it, find a solution and deal with it.

When I’m not feeling positive about life in general, I know it affects my confidence. The best way I know how to boost my positivity is a banging good workout. Cardio exercise boosts brain seratonin and tryptophan levels, known to be mood elevators, better than any sugar-laden snack could ever do. Ever heard of “runners high”? That “feel-good” you feel at the end of a good workout? That’s what I’m talking about. That feeling of physical achievement is bolstered by the chemical reaction going on in the brain  – just 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day is enough to enhance the optimal levels of serotonin for positivity in your life. Add to this a regular and challenging ab workout courtesy of the Slendertone Abs Belt and I’m feeling on top of the world.

You know how I talked about the smile? Well, another way to both feel and appear more confident is the correct posture and here’s where my Slendertone comes in again. The clever belt works all the abs muscles, strengthening the whole of my core and improving my posture. Why is this important, you ask? Well, research has shown that proper posture translates to a little more self-esteem – effectively we believe our own hype and that’s not always a bad thing! Sit up (or stand up) straight and you could also increase your oxygen intake by about 30%. More oxygen means better breathing which means more energy which translates to feeling more confident! Simple!

Personally, confidence in any situation comes from feeling good about myself and for me, that comes from knowing I’ve done the best I can to look and feel as good as I can. Probably a feminist’s nightmare, but that’s what it is. It’s why I go the gym five times a week – not to lose weight (although that would be a bonus!), but to boost those serotonin levels, energy levels and feel strong enough for anything that life throws at me. And when I feel I’m losing my way? I  know it sounds corny, but I look for support  – both from my trainer (aka husband) and my Slendertone. Using my Abs Belt has really helped me to achieve a strong, toned body within just 4 weeks; using it regularly has kept me motivated and has helped me feel good about getting ready for my summer holiday – if you want to see how good I’ve been feeling make sure to click through to my instagram here to see how many swimsuit pictures I’ve been posting, thanks in no small part to my Abs Belt. Having the app on my phone keeps me motivated and on track with my goals and it’s now an integral part of my (for the most part) healthy and active lifestyle.
