Mind over matter

This message, in varying forms, has been hitting me lately. I am well aware of the power of the mind - to both heal and hinder. I consider myself a conscious being. I make mindful decisions every day to live in accordance with my beliefs and values.

Hope is what gives us strength in times of hardship. The ability to dream; to see a better life for ourselves is fundamental to change. But applying this principle to the body is something I have only recently considered.

I am focusing healthy on my underdeveloped self image and in particular the way I feel about my own body. My loathing for my physical form is slowly, very slowly fading. It takes worth but self love and respect are worth it

My mind is focused on creating the strongest, fittest body I can. Inside and out.
