Are you Friends with your Body?
« Your Body is your Temple– let that stir your Heart and Soul to a place of awe and thankfulness » Corinthians, 1/6
Are you Friends with your Body?
Why not? What do you believe about your Body?
Your Body is your Gift. It’s always here with you. Here and Now. It never lies. It tells you the truth. It sends you messages all the time and looks after yourself 24h/24.
Your 5 senses are part of the Body. How would you enjoy life without the senses?
Society doesn’t help to make friends with our Body. We are invaded by ideals, standards, rules and clichés giving the illusion that what matters is what we SEE in the mirror – our physical appearance, when what really matters is what we FEEL from the inside.
There is also a myth that the Mind is superior to the Body and is more trustworthy. But the mind, or thinking process, is a function of the brain that is the body. The brain produces 60’000 thoughts a day so without a brain there wouldn’t be any «mind». Your Mind is IN your Body.
Many people live outside of their Body and treat it as something external, almost a stranger.
This state of disconnection is a painful way to live!
Funny enough, children don’t have this problem. Children love every bodily part of themselves. They haven’t created this distinction between the «parts» of the body they love or not. They may receive it later as part of our adult conditioning. But this conditioning can be changed!
- Your heart beats 150’000 times a day, keeping you alive and you don’t even have to say thank you!
- Your eyes blink about 14,400 – 19,200 times a day to keep your eyes stay most, oxygenated and clean.
- Your body replaces about 330 billions cells each day!
- Your body has a natural ability to self-heal, how amazing!
- And when something is wrong the Body sends a signal.
You have received a unique Body with its unique DNA, programmes, transgenerational cellular memory, strengths and weaknesses, preferences and optimal way to function. Your Body is a wonderful, sophisticated system which is always communicating with you and wants to be listened to.
Moving the body brings you back to Here and Now. It’s the quickest way to find your natural joy and aliveness again.
« Now just feel me, listen to me, trust me and give me respect, care, love, gratitude and forgiveness. I will take care of you as long as I am alive ». The Body
