Well being with Abigail

BK junior has chosen healthy eating lifestyle that influenced her body positivity

Niah Aleger | Staff Reporter

After a history of self-comparison and hatred, Abigail St. John has chosen to live a vegan lifestyle to help with her physical and mental health.

Her transition has not only increased her self-confidence but her mindset to focus on what’s important to her. She believes that the law of attraction has consequences for negative mentality and poor eating habits. When St. John began to produce positive thoughts and make healthy food choices, she also began to reach self confidence and love.

“I have become much more comfortable in my own skin, happy for who I am because I know I’m taking care of my body,” St. John said.

The 16-year-old has created an Instagram platform, @wellbeingwithabigail,  to share her health journey while encouraging people to care for their bodies, and to stop looking for yourself in other people and focus on mental positivity.   

In the future, St. John hopes to become a yoga instructor and fitness connoisseur to continue her healthy lifestyle.
