Withholding Love from Your Body

Are you withholding LOVE from your body because it doesn't look and function a certain way yet?

Have you ever said something like..

I will be love with my body WHEN..

πŸ‘‰My stomach is flat and toned

πŸ‘‰My back pain is healed

πŸ‘‰I can fit into that dress

πŸ‘‰My skin is perfectly clear

πŸ‘‰My digestive issues are all healed

πŸ‘‰I am able to fall pregnant

πŸ‘‰My hormones are all balanced

So many of us put conditions on loving our body.

We are trying to WIN our own love, as if we have forgotten that we can give it freely.

And even if we manage to meet all these conditions and bestow ourselves with the prize of LOVE, we are so quick to take it away if another condition is not met and it doesn't perform to our liking.

i.e. You may be loving your body all day, feeling really good and then you step on the scales and you see you’ve gained a kilo and so you quickly take away your love and (unconsciously) say to your body 'I will only love you again if you lose that kilo.'

We make LOVE a prize, something to achieve, something to earn, something to strive for.

But what if you could LOVE your body now as you worked to heal and change it?

What if LOVE was the actually the medicine you needed to heal your body?

Your BODY is so incredible and so worthy of your LOVE now.

Just think about everything your body already does for - digests your food, beats your heart, pumps blood around your body, regulates your body temperature, repairs your muscles and tissues etc..

Not to mention - enabling you to watch your kids grow up, hear your favourite songs, hug your loved ones, walk on the beach, swim in the ocean, dance in the rain, hear the birds chirping…

So I'd invite you to become aware of where you may be putting conditions on your body love and see if you can challenge these and release them one by one.

Of course, this is not something we can change over night, rather it’s an ongoing devotion to move in the direction of unconditional body love.

So, what is the one small body love condition you can challenge and release this week?
