THE MURAL
SHAG'S MURAL FILLED WITH SELF LOVE MESSAGES
Self-love is the first thing we teach at the school of SHAG. It is essential to love yourself before giving any of it away.
The world and in particular the media is fuelled by insecurities. At Shag we say fuck that.
​
SHAG accepts every human in whatever form they come in.
​
Whether that changes or stays the same, the body does what the body does. We do not tolerate racism, body shaming, bullying, homophobia or sexism. Take this space to appreciate yourself and other people. be kind.
This is a safe space
to love yourself,
love others and let
your love grow.

I'D SAY I LIKE MY BOOBS A LOT; I DIDN'T HIT PUBERTY AS SOON AS EVERYONE AROUND ME BUT I FEEL LIKE NOW IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT.

I USED TO BE SCARED TO SHOW MY SURGICAL SCARS, SCARED THAT PEOPLE WOULD THINK I'M A FREAK
BUT NOW I'VE REALISED THAT
WITHOUT THEM MY BODY WOULDN'T BE MINE AND THEY REMIND ME OF ALL THE STRENGTH I HAVE IN ME.
I WOULD SAY MY LEGS ARE MY FAVOURITE. I'M A SHORT GAL AND SO ARE MY LEGS BUT I LIKE THEIR SHAPE A LOT. DEFINETELY MAKES ME FEEL SEXY.

CHOOSE LOVE
I LIKE THAT MY LEGS ARE LONG, I USED TO FEEL QUITE SELF CONSCIOUS WHEN I WAS YOUNGER BUT NOW THEY MAKE ME FEEL SEXY
CHOOSE LOVE
I LOVE MY HAIR. PEOPLE USED TO SAY THE REGULAR STUFF LIKE 'OH YOU HAVE NO SOUL' BUT I THINK IT MAKES ME SOMEWHAT UNIQUE.
LOVE YOURSELF
I LOVE MY STRETCH MARKS AS I KNOW NOW THEY ARE A SIGN OF ME GROWING AS A WOMAN
Queerness to me is like… you know you're not straight, or you know you're not cishet, rather. You're questioning something, potentially. It's not a forever label though.
CHOSEN IDENTITY

AND LOVING YOUR OWN
