Morgan Mikenas es una apasionada del Fitness. Como miles de personas, muestra los resultados que el ejercicio provoca en su cuerpo a través de su cuenta de Instagram, que ya roza los 30 mil seguidores. La diferencia entre Morgan y el resto es que ella simplemente dejó de depilarse hace una año.

En el video "Why I Do not Shave" publicado en su canal de YouTube, explica qué la llevó a tomar esa decisión: "Me tomaba mucho tiempo bañarme y tener que afeitarme y luego lavar mi pelo y luego lavar mi cuerpo (…) Simplemente, un día, fue como '¿por qué estoy haciendo esto?' Me lleva demasiado tiempo".

De cualquier modo, Morgan lejos está de querer que alguien siga su camino. "Si estás enfocado en ser fiel a ti mismo en cada momento, estás menos preocupado por lo que piensan los demás, lo que llevará paz a tu mente. Cuando no tienes nada que ocultar y puedes ser libremente tú mismo", afirmó.

It's just nice to embrace the natural beauty that you are.. the beauty that's on the inside AND the outside☺💙 What is beauty anyway? To me... it's to be beautiful before someone else told you what beautiful is supposed to be.. Just as you are, you are beautiful✨💞#bodyhairdontcare #fitness #bodypositive #spreadlove #gratitude #namaste #bethechange #beauty #hairywomen #empowerment #bebold #beyou #loveandlight #positivity #encouragement #onelove #freespirit #effyourbeautystandards #natural #physique #selfcare #selflove #fitnessmodel

"There is nothing more rare, nor more beautiful, than a woman being unapologetically herself; comfortable in her perfect imperfection. To me, that is the true essence of beauty."~Steve Maraboli 🌸✨ Not just woman, but everyone! Imagine if everyone just decided that today was the day they loved themselves and embraced every part of them selves. Accepting and loving your body and your "flaws" because you know they are what makes you who you are. If you are focused on being true to yourself in every moment, you are less concerned what others think, which will lead to peace of mind. When you have nothing to hide and you can freely be yourself, there is a profound peace/confidence you will emanate to the world that will inspire others. ✨💝🤘🏼I also just posted a new YouTube video on why I don't shave my body hair and how it helped me(link in bio)☺ #bodypositive #spreadlove #behappy #namaste #hairywomen #healing #healthylifestyle #selfcare #loveyourself #beyourself #bethechange #divine #inspireothers #inspirationalquotes #positivity #goodvibesonly #lifeisbeautiful #hairy #gratitude #weareone #higherconsciousness #freespirit #empowerment #smile #feelgood

Not being able to lift for almost 2 weeks now had me feeling discouraged until I realized that healing takes time and I definitely don't want to rush back too soon and hurt myself even more. Using this setback as an opportunity to come back even stronger than I was before.💪🏼 Just a friendly reminder: It is perfectly okay if the only exercise you get today is stirring your tea or flipping some pages in a book. Wellbeing means your WHOLE body. Make sure your soul gets as much exercise as your glutes!💜👍🏼😌 #fit #abs #recovery #positivevibes #wellbeing #health #fitness #inspiration #flex #shredded#time #healing #spreadlove #bethechange #love #meditation #therapy #soul #positivity #passion #determination #healthy #lifestyle #physique #gains #hardwork #eatclean #namaste #bestself #allnatural

Ab check this afternoon after eating lots and lots of spaghetti last night🍝👅 Balance is important for a HEALTHY fitness journey. I emphasize 'healthy' because I feel that many people are afraid to eat anything not healthy or 'clean', and sometimes that thought crosses my mind, but as soon as it does I tell myself to CHILL and just enjoy some yummy food without thinking how it will impact my body.👍🏼 Being obsessed with being healthy and perfect is not emotionally healthy. I believe that you should prioritize your health. I eat healthy the majority of the time, but I also think it is equally important to have cheat days once a week. "Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live."~ Jim Rohn☺️☯️ #balance #gratitude #gains #consistency #changes #health #fitness #abs #physique #spreadlove #loveyourself #bethechange #bestself #namaste #lifestyle #tone #progress #eatclean #hardwork #dedication #passion #positivity #inspirationalquotes #inspiration #healthy #consistency #bodyhairdontcare #yummy #food #physique #aesthetics #allnatural

There are lots of things that society tells us we should and shouldn't do with regards to our aesthetics, our lifestyles, relationships, and more. Why do we persist in allowing society to define us? What is the huge problem with being different? I don't shave my legs, and I will never have the urge to do it ever again. Not shaving my body hair has improved my confidence and helped me break free from expectations that society has of me and other women. Not shaving is a lifestyle in itself. Because society tells us that our body hair is disgusting, I get negative comments everywhere I go, people stare, and try and bring me down. That is the reality we live in. And stuff like that shouldn't even be relevant. I am very comfortable within myself and that's what it is about. Any negative way a person reacts to you is just a direct reflection of THEIR OWN insecurities, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU. All I am trying to get at is whatever you are doing, make sure it is for yourself and your happiness. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone, honestly it's scary at first, but the more you do things you would not usually do, you are creating the better person you want to be. Don't let society define who you are. ☺️👍🏼💜🌍🤘🏼Tag a friend you think could learn from my words and body hair #love #inspiration #bethechange #life #spreadlove #selflove #encouragment #change #changetheworld #empowerment #different #fitness #feminism #trainhard #health #bodyhairdontcare #positivity #positivevibesonly #womenempowerment #befree #loveyourself #onelove #freemind #peaceandlove #healing #findtheothers #reality #comfortable #society #model
