7 body types.

The body is the temporary home of your soul. Once you like it more, and once less. Sometimes you care about it, putting various balms on it, providing the right amount of movement, and feeding it with superfood. And sometimes, on the contrary, you torture it with different diets or just feed it with fast food. You get lazy spending hours immobile in front of the TV or in the contrary you utilize it without restraint. It serves you once better and once worse. Sometimes it is prettier and sometimes uglier depending on the current look trends.
