Living My Element With Sylwia - Day 18-20

My body talks to me.  Who knew?  I never really grasped the reality of it until Sylwia called me this weekend to check up on my health and pointed it out to me.  It's pretty remarkable.  I can't feel 2/3 of my body, yet, I feel connected to it in every way and it is wise enough to subtly let me know everything I'm doing right or wrong by it.

I spent the whole weekend - whole entire weekend - resting in bed.  I started my antibiotics to fight off this yucky pneumonia, and I am feeling the results.  Yay!  Amazingly, I feel that catching the pneumonia was meant to be.  It's hard to imagine someone would be grateful for catching a disease, but I am.  It allowed me to rest (even though in the beginning was very much against my will) and realize that I was living my life all wrong again.  Living for priorities and values that weren't mine.  I have had time to reflect on what is important for me, and re-prioritize everything that needed work.  I thought first of my health and my daughter.

As this transformation happened, other things started falling into place and re-assuring me that I'm on the right track.  I call them mini-miracles.

My body is talking to me, and I am all ears.  I am aware of the communication that's been bridged between us and I'm so grateful for it.  I'm honored to have such a wise body.

Sylwia suggested I work on a couple of affirmations for the next couple of weeks.  Nothing else.  Lots is going on and I didn't want to feel overwhelmed.  I made a stance that from now on, everything I do will be a labor of love, not just labor.  I want the feeling of "I'm so excited to be doing this" not the "I have to do this".  I thought of two affirmations that will repeat in my mind and heart to help me get healthier and advance to a new level of body/mind/soul consciousness:

* I lovingly treat my body as my blessed vessel.  I take care of it and it responds back by giving me abundant health.


* I use the unconditional power of love to heal and care for my body as it asks me to. 

For now, that's it.  I have to go.  My body is talking to me.  ;)
