Spirit, help me to know that my beautiful body was handcrafted by God, perfect the way it is, flaws and all. Let my light shine!

The body should be studied not only by those who wish to be doctors but by those who wish to attain a more intimate knowledge of God. — Al-Ghazzali

Have you ever thought about the fact that your body holds so much? From trauma to joy to love to acceptance, etc. So, how about you … have you given your body permission to receive love?

The phrase “body shaming” comes to mind. If you’re reading this and you have body image shame, know that it doesn’t come from within. It is not your Inner Voice speaking to you.

So, how do you transfer that Truth to your soul? How do you tell your inner critic to stop?
