I Love My Body

I love my body.

I take good care of her.

I allow my brain to make educated choices of what to eat because what I ingest is important. My food becomes my fuel. My fuel is what gives my body the strength and energy to optimize my day.

I love my body.  I ingest supplements that help this intricate, amazing, miraculous machine run efficiently.  As directed by my Naturopath, I know that my body is getting the herbs, and vitamins she needs to help her eliminate toxins and keep my skeletal, muscular and vascular structure strong, viable and optimal.

I love my body. I honor the sleep she needs. I exercise her with walking, hiking and biking. I strengthen her with weight routines, and I keep her limber and stretched by making time to do yoga.

I love my body’s largest organ which is my skin. I wouldn’t eat most of the ingredients in most commercial lotions so why would I put it on my skin? I take care in what I purchase, use and consume.

I love my body. She is the temple of my soul. She is what allows me to feel the sunshine, listen to the river and rain, enjoy the beauty of a sunset, the laughter of the smell of a rose, the song of a bird, the touch of a kitten, the feeling of humbleness when I remember the vastness, the strength, the force of all the elements on this planet and that I am a part of.

I love my body. She and I make a wonderful team. I am blessed! How about you?
