Euphoria is defined as a state of intense happiness and self-confidence. We live in a time of screens, apps, and influencers that give a false sense of reality through altered images and partial truths.

Unfortunately, individuals whose bodies lie outside of this artificial “ideal” may be compelled to hide their bodies or feel ashamed.
