Lektion 1
Start With A Foundation Of Willingness: An Invitation To Commit To Yourself
Today we kick-off a 5 Day Challenge and so Lesson 1 is really the foundation of it all. Therefore, starting today, I invite you to commit to yourself for the next 5 Lessons. What does that look or feel like? What if we invited in ease and simplicity (I mean, who said it needs to be hard?!) Lesson 1 begins s practice of "being" with yourself through focused awareness. Now, find a place where it is safe to relax, sit down and close the eyes... and when you are ready, plug in those headphones to begin.
Lektion 2
The Body Holds Wisdom
In Lesson 1, we initiated this 5 Day Body Acceptance Challenge by gently welcoming in awareness of what it feels like to sit with the body... which is to say: get comfortable BE-ing with yourself and allowing in openness to a more accepting relationship with the body. Because it takes allowance. Today, we build off that foundation and allow ourselves to acknowledge that the body is so much more than a physical vessel. The body is WISE. Are you willing to tune in and listen to its wisdom?
Lektion 3
Making Space For Acceptance
In Lesson 2, we opened up the channels of communication with the body and inquired what it is that the 'physical you' needs or desires (all while accessing a deep rest state of theta in the brain). And with those lines of communication now open, we continue into Lesson 3. Today, I’d like to introduce the conversation of judgment because the truth is: that judgment and acceptance are on opposite sides of the spectrum. Meaning, there is no acceptance where there is judgment. And so today we invite in the willingness to release or let go of judgment of the body... and therefore create space for acceptance.
Lektion 4
Shame Is Shared (Not Owned)
Now that you’ve created space for acceptance (& remembered that you already practice acceptance - naturally!) We’re going to allow in a deep truth today. But before we get into that, I have a question: what makes a belief system? Many would argue that when we "accept" something as truth, we allow it into our belief system.
What happens if we accept someone else’s truth? Because, more often than not, habits of judgment or shame have been gifted to us from other people or other belief systems. Judgment or shame is inherited, not born. Therefore, what if all judgment and shame belong to someone else? What if we are holding on to something that wasn’t ever ours to begin with? I wonder how freeing it could feel to let go of what was never yours to begin with...
Lektion 5
My Body Does Not Define Me
Today we close out our 5-Day Body Acceptance Challenge! Please take a moment to acknowledge yourself - this is a BIG DEAL! You are planting expansive seeds of transformation that will continue blossoming for the rest of your life. Now, let's get into Lesson 5.
You likely already know that that the physical body is only one aspect of you. If said in another way: the body is just ONE 'part' of you. You are made up of so many parts! Specifically: a body, a mind, a heart, and a soul. In our closing lesson today, I invite you to remember (in the most loving way possible) that you are so much more than your body.
When you are done, PLEASE let me celebrate you by sharing in the comments what the most *valuable* thing is that you are taking away from this experience... because you may just help someone else uncover a new depth for themselves. CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!!
