Make this your motto this year :)

My Body, My Best Friend

DateTuesday, February 2, 2010 at 13:11

Antoinette & Annie

I ran 21.21 kilometers Sunday.  In cold weather.  On muddy trails.  With two dogs, one not my own, tripping me up.  

I am really in awe of how powerful my body is . . . if I just get out of its way and don't provide it with any excuse to stay indoors and remain sedentary it can outperform any preconceived notions with which I have burdened it.

I love and appreciate my body for everything it does for me.

This is our mantra at Camp Biche.  

I love and appreciate my body for everything it does for me.

I don't expect my body to look like anyone else's body.  I don't expect my body to win beauty contests.  I don't expect my body to leap tall buildings in a single bound.

I don't want my body to be different.  

I simply love and appreciate my body for all the joy it brings me and for all the places it takes me.

My objective for Camp Biche is to make sure that every client leaves here loving and appreciating their body . . . as it is right now . . . while knowing that it is capable of achieving the most wondrous accomplishments.

Libby, I just LOVE what you have to say about our bodies. I feel the same. I never appreciated my body until my health was taken away from me. It was my wake up call, to slowly make changes in my lifestyle, diet and daily fitness. It's funny, how it took illness to make me aware of my body and to live life in the present moment. It is simple to say, I want to change, however it's not an easy thing to do. I'm Thankful for my Faith & family helping me every step of the way. Becoming a mom at 40 changed my life, becoming ill changed my thoughts. Change your thoughts, you change your life!
I recommend this book by Louise Hay. You can Heal YOURSELF.
