Did you know that the biggest cause for shaming in women is our body?

I’m sure this doesn’t surprise you. Men suffer this too of course, but not to such extent.

This is why it’s so common to see women abusing their bodies like I used to do. I would do crazy diets, try all workout programs and crush it at sports. But it was all for the sake of looking good, fitting in, and feeling enough. 🥀

Back then I thought it was the right thing to do to get the results I wanted, but of course, none of that ever made me feel the way I wanted.

Because deep inside I was acting from a space of fear… 🥀

It was until I learned one new principle, that everything changed in my relationship with my body.

Something so profound that it transformed my perception and I started looking at and caring for my body as a Sacred Temple. 🌹

Let me explain. There are 3 reasons from which we care for our bodies:

Reason 1️⃣: Vanity

Reason 2️⃣: Wellness

Reason 3️⃣: Vessel

1️⃣ From reason one you do things from your egoic self. To look good, to fit into society's standards, and ultimately, to feel enough.

2️⃣ From the wellness reason, there’s a slight shift and you do it for healthier reasons, to feel more energetic, or to age more gracefully. But these are still very self-oriented reasons.

3️⃣ But there is a higher level of consciousness from which you learn to look at your body as a vessel! A vessel that can help you serve your purpose and serve the world. 

When you realize that caring for your body goes beyond the looks and even beyond your own health, you understand that the better vessel you have, the better you can show up to the world. 

You realize that you need fewer words to share your message because your only presence speaks through your body. You can even change the energy around you when walking into a room, confident in yourself, full of light!

🕌 As a vessel you are a receiver of the grace and the beauty of the Universe. 

So if you’ve ever struggled with your body image like I did, or if you’d like to change any unhealthy habits, I invite you to shift your perception and see your body as the secret temple that it is. As a vessel for love, light, and transformational energy.

And if you know there’s someone who would benefit from these words, leave their name below!

 ✨ Let’s embody our loving energy. ✨

With love,
