Know your Mind | Love your Body

Happy Monday - whether you have taken the day off, or not.

After a long week end of braais and bounty, I heard my dark wolf snarl at my excesses. 

I was ready.

Back off Fluffy !

The way we experience our bodies often parallels the way we experience our core selves. 

So if we are tough on our bodies — bashing our weight, shape or wrinkles — we will likely be tough on our core and have a conditional self-esteem. 

Appreciating our bodies with all their imperfections can help us cultivate a more accepting view of ourselves as a whole

Think about how amazing the body really is. For instance, did you know that the heart, pumps three thousand gallons of blood per day? 

Kilo by kilo our bodies produce 5 times more energy than sun ?

Think of your best friend, partner, kids or pets. Why do you love them? 

Undoubtedly it has little to do with their flawless traits. 

We don’t wait to love others until they’re perfect

So don't wait until you are perfect to love yourself.

Perfectionism paralyses us and keeps us from accomplishing our goals.

Appreciate your body. 

Just for today.
