It all started with an Instagram story – Gaia asked her followers to share some phrases people have been bullied with, and Gaia came back with an anti-bullying inspirational Instagram post.
She plasters her face with insults to raise awareness against cyber-bullying and sends everyone a very strong message.

“If we take a step back and actually think before we talk, this world would be such a better place! Bullying is something which people do in order to make themselves feel better but I promise you, you can never look or feel good by trying to make someone else look bad. My advice to anyone who’s going through a rough time is “don’t get used to it”.. stand up for who you are and don’t let them bring you down!! You are beautiful, you are powerful, you are strong and you have every right to be happy!”
She goes on to say, “If today I will make at least one person happy, I will be happy. We can do this together, find a friend, a parent, someone you trust, and SPEAK UP! I’m always here if you need me.”
The post has already been shared by various influencers and many of Gaia’s followers.
