I LOVE my Body!

I LOVE my body! I was going to say something like, “It’s not perfect, but I love it.”  But the truth is, it is perfect. It’s exactly what I need, it’s part of me, I love it and it’s mine.

I’m not talking about looking in the mirror and admiring my body (though I do that) and thinking that every part of me looks exactly the way I want it to. Instead, I’m talking about loving my body where love is a verb. I spend time moving my body through exercise, calming my mind through meditation and practicing energy medicine every single day. I eat foods that I love, (and yes, that includes candy and chips, etc!), I wear what makes me feel comfortable and beautiful. I do all these things not because I think they are things I should do but because I want my body to know that I love and value it. And because of these things I can look in the mirror and say, “I love my body!”

I flex my muscles, I put my hands on my hips, I smile at myself and tell myself I am fabulous, beautiful and made for greatness… when I feel like it and even when I don’t. And in those moments, when it’s more talk than feeling, my body gives me a hug and says, “I love you too.”

Anxiety, Depression and Stress

The attached article by Dr. Tracy Clark discusses the effects of anxiety, depression and stress and just a few of the ways that BodyTalk can help with these types of diseases.

BodyTalk can work very well as a stand alone modality, but is also an excellent compliment to counselling and other therapies. One of the many benefits of BodyTalk is that it can be very empowering in terms of giving us the confidence to continue moving forward with the breakthroughs and tools we gain through counselling. BodyTalk is a catalyst for those “aha moments” in life that come with a shift in perspective.

The Three Brains

Did you know we each have three brains?

We are all familiar with the “Head Brain” which runs the autonomic nervous system among many other important functions. But, did you know we each also have a Heart Brain and a Gut Brain? Over emphasis of the Head Brain in our Western society conversely also leads to under functioning of the Heart and Gut Brains, imbalances that can lead to chronic depression, self-destructive/self-sabatoging behaviours, IBS and digestive disorders and more.
