Make Friends With Your Body

Posted in Our Bodies, Paths to Bliss at 10:15 am

I’m still here, I promise. I’m working on a bunch of things!

I’m on a mailing list for an energy healer’s meetup group and this arrived in my mailbox this morning:

The body you are given will be yours for the duration of your time here. Love it or hate it, accept it or reject it, it is the only one you will receive in this lifetime.. It will be with you from the moment you draw your first breath to the last beat of your heart. Since there is no refund, no exchange policy on this body of yours, it is essential that you learn to transform your body from a mere vessel into a beloved partner and lifelong ally, as the relationship between you and your body is the most fundamental and important relationship of your lifetime. It is the blueprint from which all your other relationships will be built.

The challenge of the first rule is to make peace with your body, so that it can effectively serve its purpose and share its valuable lessons of acceptance, self esteem, respect, and pleasure. Everyone one learn these lessons before they are able to journey successfully through life.

I love it!
