These Are a Few Of My Favorite Things

"Raindrops on roses

And Whiskers on kittens....

These are a few of my favorite things...."

So the song goes.

Let me ask you a question:

What is your FAVORITE part of your body?

Think about that for a moment.

Now, what is your LEAST favorite body part?

It may have been more difficult to think of your favorite part rather than your least favorite.

Why is that?

Because so often we are focusing on the things about us

That we consider wrong or defective,

Instead of being grateful for all of the parts of ourselves we can fully and freely embrace.

So get a sheet of paper

Write down your Favorite parts of your body,

List at least 5

Then say thank you for those parts.

Easy enough, right?

Now write down your least favorite body parts,

Then list 10 reasons why you are THANKFUL for those parts.

Try it,

You will be amazed at how differently you feel about your own body

By the end of this practice.

Remember, there is only one you,

You are beautiful and unique just as you are.

If we were all the same, life would be SOOO boring...

Like living in a universe where the only choice is Vanilla

And I prefer CHOCOLATE!

You may want strawberry...who knows,

So embrace yourself

For everything you are,

EVERYTHING YOU ARE,

And the rest of the world will embrace you too.

Have a healthy weekend!
