Love Your Goddess Body

Do you love your body? I mean, truly LOVE your body, no matter what it might look like? If you don't, you really need to change that. In today's society, we are forever comparing ourselves to others, whether it be a family member or friend, that girl in yoga class who can twist like a pretzel or our favourite actress. But here's the thing about comparing ourselves to others... IT SERVES NO PURPOSE WHATSOEVER! NONE... NADA... ZILTCH! We are truly unique and special beings and we need to embrace this. Loving ourselves for who we are is the best thing we can do for our self esteem and our self worth. YOU, my lovely Goddess friend, are THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON IN YOUR LIFE! If you don't love yourself + take care of yourself, no one else will. If you have children, the way you treat yourself is the greatest lesson of all. Kids take in so much more than we realize and give them credit for. Loving + respecting + caring for ourselves will teach our daughters self respect + self love. It will teach our sons that women are worthy and should be treated with total love + respect. When I asked my daughter to help me stay off sugar, I never realized the impact it would have on me. She took this job VERY seriously! She has set up a reward system for me and has been asking me each and every day if I had any sugar. Knowing that I have to answer this question each day makes it so motivating for me! The other day, I "cheated", but she was there and told me it was my choice. I had a piece of birthday cake for her Grand-Mother's birthday. Yes, it was my choice, and I felt quite guilty afterwards. But she did not judge or make me feel small for that decision. It actually made me even more determined to stay off the sugar and reach my goal (she says there's a surprise for me... can't wait to see what it is!) So what's my point? Here's the thing. If you have a health goal in mind, find a way to reach it that will keep you motivated and excited to achieve the results you set out to achieve. Telling someone you trust is a great way to remain accountable. They can keep you on track and help you back up if you fall. They will cheer you on and make reaching that goal so much sweeter in the end! So, please, do me a favour and start loving (and I mean really LOVING) your body. You are truly a beautiful + loving soul. Treat your body like the Goddess Temple that it is. It is not perfect (none of us are, but as they say... beauty is in the eye of the beholder), so behold your own beauty + exquisiteness. Love you and you will feel more and more love find its way to you in so many ways. Tonight, before you go to bed (actually, make a habit of this... it is quite powerful) stand in front of a full length mirror (doing this naked is even more powerful, but if you're not comfortable with that yet, you can work yourself up to it), look into your beautiful loving eyes and say "(Your name), I LOVE YOU!". Say it with feeling... say it with immense love... say it like you mean it, because you truly should mean it! REMEMBER... YOU ARE GODDESS LOVE! How do you show yourself love? Please share!
