We can move through life taking our bodies for granted and forgetting to be thankful and loving ourselves as we are. Body experiences vary for each person and change with age. Sometimes we have pain or discomfort and yet we can still see all of it as an extraordinary happening that we get to take part in and that is worth our gratitude! Pause to acknowledge the blessing your body is to you with a short guided visualization. This takes just a few minutes and may help to keep you mindful in other parts of your day.
Blessing the Body
I am thankful for my whole body. I am thankful for my whole being. I bless my mind, body, soul and all the points at which these parts of me interconnect.
I breathe into my entire body with a warm, soothing light that glows as it moves with my breath. I breath warm, soothing, glowing light into my chest. I breathe warm, soothing, glowing light into my shoulders, neck, and face. I feel the warmth flow into the back of my body, stomach, hips, legs, and feet. I am filled with warmth. I am filled with a soft glowing light. I am safe. I am warm. My entire body is a blessing to me.
