UF Students Spread Body Positivity

Love Your Body Day   


Self love and body positivity is spread among UF students who are invited to participate in the fifth annual "Love Your Body" day held by online magazine HerCampus.

Editor in chief of the magazine, Darcy Schild, said her originality is something she values.
"I wrote my creativity. My creativity is something important of who I am."
