You are more than a body, right?
The answer is yes.
There is a separation between you - your spirit, gifts, soul… & the physical body that you live in.
Altho our body is OURS, it’s what we experience life through, & is often a reflection of our lifestyle + decisions - it does not define WHO we are.
Whether aware of it or not, we all have a relationship with our body. How we “relate” to it can be so easily overlooked yet is one of our biggest guides as we cultivate a healthy lifestyle that is made specifically for us.
What makes a great relationship?
Communication, support, listening, gratitude, acts of service, trust, honesty, admiration, acceptance, unconditional love…..
How have you shown up for your half of your relationship with your body?
When your body speaks, do you listen?
Do you know how your body communicates with you?
Ever observed a busy mom doing all she can to take care of her kids, her husband, herself… in-person + behind the scenes? Maybe you know one. Maybe you are one! Imagine after all that care, & the only thing she gets in return is judgement or criticism. We all know how that would make us feel.
Consider ALL the things our body does for us without us asking to keep us alive.
- blood pumping through your veins
- oxygen filtered in our lungs
- digestion of our food + nutrients
- our feet that carry us thru every adventure
- ours arms that create every single hug
We will be in these bodies for every second of our life on this Earth.
It is our choice to be at war with our body, or, to become it’s best friend. 💘
Mutual support & unconditional love. It’s a never-ending process but it is the most worth-while.

As we start to nurture a relationship w/our own body, everything else starts to change, too. How eat, how we think, how we feel, & …. how we show up in relationship with others.
Sending you & your body so much love! 💓💓💓
