Dear Body - A Love Letter

This is a letter of gratitude written to my body. Too often I critique or admonish her. Here is an example of me appreciating Her. I invite you to write your own letter to your body and everything it does for you on the daily. This cultivates compassion and gratitude. Your letter may start like mine...

Dear Body,
You are a marvel.
or
Dear Body,
Please forgive me...

Whatever you choose will be right for you. Trust that.

Thank you 🙏🏽 your letter has inspired me to write my own letter…I’m a cancer survivor and I also have Parkinson’s, I’ve learned so many lessons from my precious, beautiful, strong, resilient body! A thank you letter sounds perfect to write. Blessings from my body to yours 🙏🏽♥️💃🏽

This really resonates with me and it made me smile several times as I, too, was able to "thank" my various body parts! Especially my hands that also navigated twins, 29 years ago! I'm thankful for this beautiful poem 🙏💕

Oh dear Cali neighbor
THANK YOU for this recognition to a marvelous structure that has carried us foreward all the days of my life.
It is bringing tears to my eyes.

I love this! I wrote a poem in gratitude for my feet when I was still a runner so I totally get this. Thanks!

A wonderful reminder of being grateful for the journey our bodies have taken us on so far; & to respect what our bodies have in store for us in the future! Loved listening to your gratitude story! ❤️
