Courageous Teen Shares Video "#Labels" To Take Back Power From Bullies

Lauren Brocious has taught us all an important lesson. While it is true that words won't cause you any serious physical harm, Brocious has reminded us that they can still do some damage. She explains that name calling can be painful while writing words like "ugly," "stupid" and "trash" across her face. For anyone who has ever been called a terrible name, these labels can hit close to home. But the most powerful moment comes when Brocious wipes these hurtful labels from her face and tells us all that the best thing you can do is love yourself. As she does, she begins to write new labels, like "happy" and "love." The only way to protect yourself from hurtful comments is to arm yourself with the "labels" that actually fit. [bctt tweet="Courageous Teen Shares Video "#Labels" To Take Back Power From Bullies "] Here is some of the wisdom, Brocious throws down:

1. "We Start To Believe What Other People Say About Us And Forget Who We Are"

2. "Eventually Those Words Tear Us Down"

3. "But What If Instead We Started Wiping Away Those Labels That People Gave Us?"

4. "We Are All The Wonderful Things We've Done And All The Wonderful Thing We Are"

5. "When We Start To Love Ourselves Those Negative Things People Say About Us Will Become Irrelevant"
