Body Language

"We usually do pay attention to our outer appearance, typically noticing whatever part of our bodies we are unhappy about. It behooves us, however, to get on very good terms with more than just the surface of our bodies as we grow older; for if we don't listen to our bodies and pay attention to our physical needs and pleasures, this vehicle that we need to be running well to take us into a long and comfortable life, will limit what we can do and who we become."
~Jean Shinoda Bolen
Affirmation: I am taking good care of my body temple.
Meditation:
Eternal One, I am grateful for this body form. Looking beyond the surface appearance, I marvel at the miracle of how bones and sinew, blood vessels, tissues and organs work together. I sense the rhythm of life which regulates my activities. In You, I live and move and have my being. Thank you for this physical representation of life. I honor Your creation by taking good care of me. Thank You, God. Amen
