Although it sounds a little awkward, men can also feel less confident about their body shape. It's okay for men to feel self-conscious when naked. However, the most important thing is that you are comfortable and confident in your appearance. With the right thoughts, you will look and feel confident when you look in the mirror, or when other people look at your body.
Step
Part 1 of 3: Being Confident When Naked
Step 1. Take off all the clothes you are wearing
Take off all the clothes you are wearing. The only way to overcome fear, anxiety, and doubt when naked is to fight it head-on.
- You don't have to do it in front of other people. The first step is to make sure that you are comfortable when you are naked.
- Make sure you do this step in front of a mirror. This is done so that you can observe all parts of your body, especially the parts that are difficult to see.
- Gradually increase the duration of your nakedness. This doesn't mean you have to turn into a nudist right away. Just spend more time without wearing any clothes. This method will probably make you more comfortable.
Step 2. Focus on your positive attributes
To stay confident when naked, highlight the parts of your body that make you feel confident. Focusing on your favorite body parts can help build your confidence and motivate you to improve other parts of your body.
- Remember, the human body is made up of many parts. This means that you are highly likely to find something positive about yourself. For example, you may have strong legs, a beautiful back, or amazing "power". Either way, recognizing your favorite body part is a good start.
- If you're having trouble, you don't need to make a list of your favorite body parts. Start by identifying the parts of your body that you find attractive (even if they're still visible when you're not naked). For example, you may have a beautiful smile or strong hands.
Step 3. Fight negative thoughts about your body
Negative thoughts can destroy a person's self-confidence. This of course can make it difficult for the person to accept his natural body shape. In addition, this can also make him stop improving himself. Therefore, identify these negative thoughts and change the way you think. There are several negative thoughts that can affect the way a person sees himself.
- All or nothing. You may not have a muscular stomach or tight muscles. However, you can change and improve yourself to have these positive attributes. Remember, you can still get something you don't currently have.
- Filter. Complaining about the unattractive body parts and ignoring the attractive parts can make you feel insecure when you are naked. Therefore, it is important to identify the body part that you like. Remember, one part of your body definitely deserves praise.
- Negative words. Don't turn criticism of negative aspects into a reflection of yourself. There's a big difference between "My stomach is too big, I have to try to lose weight," and "I'm overweight because I can't force myself to exercise." When you criticize yourself, you also need to find ways to improve.
Step 4. Know the aspects that can be improved
It's important to feel confident in your own body (and when you're naked). However, this does not mean that your body and you are perfect. Determine the ideal body shape you want to achieve. This is done so that you can maintain your confidence and your appearance.
- Set goals that are small, simple, and easy to follow so that your progress and achievements can be easily observed. This is perfect for ideal body goals, such as improving your body shape or changing your hair style, as progress is easier to track.
- Also consider mental goals, such as focusing more on the positive aspects of your body. For example, praising one of the positive aspects of your body every morning can improve your mood and self-confidence when you're naked.
Part 2 of 3: Make Your Body Look Great When Naked
Step 1. Keep your body clean
Caring for and cleaning your body regularly can improve your appearance. You may need to get used to it when it comes to new good habits. However, the results will be very satisfying.
- Bathe regularly. Take regular baths to keep your body and hair free from dirt, oil, and sweat. Use soap and warm water. Rinse all parts of your body until clean. After that, dry with a towel.
- Eliminate body odor. In addition to keeping your body clean, especially parts that are often dirty and sweaty like your armpits, you also need to use deodorant and cologne. A mild, mild, odorless deodorant works great at removing body odor.
- Use cologne to enhance your natural scent. Just use small amounts of cologne. It's best not to spray too much cologne so that the aroma is not too strong.
Step 2. Also treat certain body parts
Some parts of your body may need special care. Nails and teeth may require extra care. However, nails and teeth can help boost your confidence and enhance your appearance.
- Trim fingernails and toenails regularly. Trimming your fingernails and toenails once a week can keep them short. File your nails after trimming them to make them appear smoother. In addition, soft nails will not get caught in clothes or hurt others.
- Take care of your oral hygiene. Brush your teeth twice a day. In addition, also clean between the teeth every day. Also use mouthwash to keep your breath fresh. If you want to make your teeth look cleaner and more beautiful, contact your dentist to whiten or straighten your teeth.
Step 3. Take good care of your skin
Clean and healthy skin is very attractive to most people. Know your skin type to find products that are suitable and can solve your skin problems.
- Bathing regularly can help remove dirt and oil that can cause spots and blemishes on the skin. Make sure you clean the sweaty parts of your body.
- Protect yourself from the sun. Sunlight can damage the skin. In addition, although it does not always cause skin cancer, the sun can cause skin blisters. Blistered skin certainly will not look attractive. Protect skin from the sun during the day. Wear clothes that are not too revealing, and use sunscreen.
- To keep the skin clean, consume a variety of fruits and vegetables. Eat carrots, apricots, spinach, tomatoes, and berries. Salmon and mackerel are also good choices. You can also eat nuts and seeds.
Step 4. Fight acne
Get rid of dirt and acne that is all over your body. Bathing regularly can prevent the appearance of acne. In addition, clean the body after exercise to remove sweat that sticks.
- If you have acne, use a gentle cleanser instead of an astringent facial cleanser.
- Change and clean your bed sheets regularly. While sleeping, dirt and dead skin may stick to the sheets. Cleaning sheets regularly can prevent dirt from sticking to your skin.
Step 5. Keep your weight at an ideal level
Everyone has a different body. Therefore, your ideal weight will depend on your height, health condition, and activity level. Consult a doctor to find out your ideal weight.
- Fat that accumulates in certain body parts is also related to your weight. Identify which body part makes you uncomfortable. After that, make an exercise plan that can overcome the problems in that section.
- To help control your weight, you need to consider the number of calories you consume each day. If you want to lose weight, do not reduce the number of calories consumed too much. You certainly need enough energy to exercise and carry out daily activities. Instead, consume foods made from plants such as fruit, vegetables, and wheat. This option has fewer calories, but is healthy, so you still have enough energy to move.
Step 6. Build muscle
Having strong and toned muscles is not the only way to look great. However, muscles will certainly make your body much more attractive. Build muscle with exercise and diet.
- Decide which body part you want to improve. Certain exercise methods can help tone muscles in more specific body parts. To build abdominal muscles, try doing sit-ups or other mid-body training methods. To tone your arm muscles, try doing push-ups, pull-ups, and weightlifting. Like any weight loss plan, choose an exercise method that suits your goals. Make sure you stretch before exercising.
- Make sure you are eating enough protein. Protein can help build muscle. Beef, chicken, and eggs are good sources of protein. If you don't like eating meat, almonds and cottage cheese are good alternatives.
Step 7. Drink enough water
You need at least 13 glasses of water every day. Water can help keep skin clean. Water can also keep you from overeating, and staying hydrated when you exercise.
Part 3 of 3: Confident when With Your Partner
Step 1. Use confident body language
When you're not wearing a single thread, body language is very important in keeping yourself comfortable and confident. Even if you don't feel confident, faking it can help you become more confident.
- Make sure your posture is correct. Standing or sitting up straight will make you appear taller. Raise your chin and relax your shoulders to make your pose appear more confident. You should also use this posture when dressing as usual. A confident posture is very important when you are not wearing clothes.
- Smile. A friendly face will make you appear more confident and attractive in front of other people.
- Look forward and hold eye contact. By doing this, you and your partner will have a stronger connection. In addition, this will also make your partner look into your eyes instead of other body parts. If you're still nervous about being naked in front of other people, this method might help you take your eyes off your body.
Step 2. Make sure the hair on your body is neat and well groomed
You may not mind the hair growing long and irregular. However, your partner may object. Long and irregular fur is less attractive to look at. Also, your partner may not want to touch it. Of course, you want your partner to touch your skin directly, not your body hair.
- Underarm hair. The armpit is a part of the body that sweats a lot. Trimming armpit hair can help reduce sweating. You should not shave the armpit hair until it runs out. Trim, trim, and keep the armpit hair from being too long,
- Chest hair. If you are an athlete, your chest may be the part of your body that should be free of hair. Shave the chest gently, then use an electric razor to trim any remaining hair. You can also wax to remove chest hair. An electric shaver can also be used to keep your chest hair neat and masculine (if you wish).
- Back hair is generally less attractive. If you do not like back hair, remove it by waxing because it is not too painful. In addition, this method is very suitable because you may have difficulty shaving hair that is not clearly visible.
- Pubic hair. Like the chest and armpits, most men generally do not shave their pubic hair, except for athletes who want to be more aerodynamic. Use an electric razor to keep pubic hair neat and short. This can reduce sweat and odor. In addition, your pubic will also appear bigger.
Step 3. Arrange the room to be more comfortable
Your comfort isn't always about self-confidence. By slightly adjusting the room to be more comfortable, you and your partner will be more relaxed when naked. In addition, this can also help change the atmosphere to be more intimate.
- Make sure the room temperature is right. There are several factors that can determine whether the room temperature is right or not. Generally, everyone has a different room temperature preference. If you're naked, make sure the room temperature is slightly higher than usual. This is done so you don't get cold. A room that's too cold will reduce blood flow, so parts of your body may shrink in search of warmth.
- Dim the lights. If you and your partner aren't comfortable being naked in front of each other, slightly dimmed lights can help hide certain body parts. In addition, dim lights can also make the atmosphere more romantic. If you want to be more daring, you can also light a candle. However, make sure your fire alarm is off.
- Make sure the room doesn't smell. Your body odor may be over, but you certainly don't want the room to smell bad. Keeping the room clean and tidy can help get rid of odors in it. A little spray of air freshener can also get rid of unpleasant odors.
Step 4. Laugh
Everyone must have felt embarrassed when naked. Your partner may also feel embarrassed to be naked in your presence. Lighten up the mood by joking, laughing, or finding something funny around you. Laughter will make you and your partner more comfortable. In addition, laughing together can also strengthen the bond between you and your partner.
Step 5. Allow your partner to touch you
This doesn't always have to be done when you're naked. Holding your partner's hand can help you realize that your real self isn't always your reflection in the mirror. The touch of another person can make you feel more attractive and valuable.
- If you already have a partner, invite your partner to touch you. The touch doesn't always have to be erotic. Hugs and massages can help you realize that your partner finds you attractive.
- If you're single, or don't have a partner who can touch you, visiting a massage parlor is a great alternative to feeling someone else's touch. In addition, you will also feel relaxed afterwards.
Tips
- One of the skin treatments that is often forgotten by men is using face and body lotions. One of the easiest ways to make your skin look more attractive is to use a moisturizer. Try different lotions to find the scent and texture you want.
- If you have never waxed before, seek professional help for satisfactory results.
- When it comes to dieting, consult a nutritionist to find a healthy and effective diet plan that fits your needs.
- To determine the right exercise plan, try to consult with a personal trainer who can help achieve the goals that have been set.
Warning
- If negative thoughts about your body are causing you depression or you want to hurt yourself, talk to those closest to you right away. Seek help from a close friend, relative, or professional psychiatrist.
- Don't push yourself too hard when dieting or exercising. You may get injured or fall ill. Consult your doctor before deciding on a diet/exercise plan that suits your needs.
