MY BODY_MY POSSESSION

Appreciating your body is a journey that requires self-reflection, gratitude, and self-care. It's about recognizing the amazing things your body can do, rather than focusing on its flaw.

Appreciating your body can bring a sense of freedom, peace, and love into your life. It's about acknowledging the incredible things your body does for you every day, from breathing and walking to digesting food and keeping you healthy.

Growing up as a young  child, I always felt insecure about my body, from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet. Especially when it has to do with my height. Soon enough I learnt how to appreciate my body through the following ways which I'll share.

1. Be grateful about your body: Always take few minutes of your day to focus on different parts of your body, noticing how they feel and what they do for you. Express gratitude for each part, no matter how small it may seem. Always talk to your body parts, thank them for making life easy for you.

2. Self-Care: Establish a daily self-care routine that nourishes your body, such as drinking enough water, eating healthy food, and getting enough sleep. Just as the title implies your body is your possession, take care of it! Appreciate it and treat it with love. 

3.Mindfulness: Practice mindfulness by paying attention to your thoughts and emotions without judgment. This can help you develop a more positive body image. I ask people how well do know your body? Don't live life out of ignorance,  most people landed themselves in difficult situations just because they weren't paying attention to the thinnest details of their body. Make it a habit of going for a thorough body checkup. It will help!! 

Remember, appreciating your body is a journey, and it's okay to take it one step at a time. By practicing self-care, mindfulness, and gratitude, you can develop a more positive body image and cultivate a deeper appreciation for the incredible things your body can do being confident and comfortable ❤️
