Many of us get upset with our bodies: too big, too small, too slow, too clumsy…but what if there are important lessons you need to learn, and share, that you can only get from the body you’re in? What if it’s teaching you to be compassionate in a way you’d never understand otherwise?

The Buddhists believe that it’s necessary we are in the body we have, that otherwise we couldn’t learn the lessons we need in this lifetime.

I will guide you through thought-provoking questions in this meditation to help you love and understand your body a bit better.

Once we understand why we have this body, we can begin to understand how it affects our relationships.

Thank you for listening. Enjoy!
