Your Body - Your Partner in Health and Well-Being

"There is growing evidence that being grateful may not only bring good feelings—it may also lead to better health."
- Jeff Huffman

In this post I would like to share a practice I find very beneficial to my overall well-being that some of you might like to try out for yourselves.
Every day before falling asleep and getting up in the morning, I gently stretch and direct my attention to the body. I breathe in and acknowledge the amazing labor it performs on my behalf throughout the day and during the night.

I mentally scan the body from the tip of the toes to the top of my head, and thank every single cell for its work thus flooding it with thoughts of gratitude. In return I feel more connected to it and am inspired to support it in the various functions it performs to keep me healthy. I care for it by being mindful of what I eat and think, and how I move.
Flood every single cell with thoughts of gratitude.
This practice also helped me recover from various injuries with minimum downtime.  Hope this helps you stay healthy and strong and most of all motivates you to love and support your body.
