ten day challenge - day nine.

day nine - october 19th

“the most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely.”

the challenge:  body kindness.
be kind to your body today. take a nap, go for a walk, enroll in a yoga class, get a massage, take a bubble bath, get a pedicure or manicure, or cook yourself a delicious meal.  we have been trained to hate our bodies. we pluck, tweeze, shape, mold, sculpt, and otherwise try to change our appearances. your body is the vehicle that will carry you to your dreams - treat it with kindness and love. we must cherish our bodies as God-given gifts.
journal: what did you do for your body today? how did it make your body feel?
