In the face of New Year's Resolutions, aka the busiest time of year to be hard on your body, it's time to dig deep and -
REFLECT: DO YOU TREAT YOUR BODY WITH LOVE?
- What attitudes or beliefs do you hold towards your body? What words or phrases come up? Are they positive or negative? Notice without judgement.
- What do you regularly do to care for your body now (nutrition, exercise, rest, etc.)?
- If you unconditionally loved your body, would you do anything differently (with your nutrition, exercise, rest, etc.)?

- Making and bringing breakfast and lunch to school every day
- Cooking dinner at night
- Less takeout
- Exercise starting with very small steps- walking Leia down to the playground every morning
Let's put it this way- I'm not going to give excuses. But it hasn't happened. At all. And its the 9th of January.
Again, I'm going to have to come back to this one.
