Our health is our dearest possession, especially when we are not well. When we are in our best health we have the energy and motivation to get great things done. But, how many times do we let our poor health hold us back where we could be doing so much more. Now if our bodies were our cars, we would likely pay more attention to them. Fixing them before they get too broken and basically taking care of them. Yet we ignore the check engine light in our bodies… Sometimes our bodies are telling us, we need to take a pit stop, or we need some better fuel. Maybe our batteries are just low.
When we want to be good to our bodies, we exercise them, feed them healthy food and pamper them with hot tubs and massages. And when we are really being good to them, we let them rest… What if your body could talk to you? What would it say? Do you ever listen to see if there is a message? Do you ever wonder if you are getting a message when your body is hurting? Is it trying to tell you, “Hey buddy, pay attention to me!” When you are finally listening, do you ask, “What’s the matter body? What do you need from me?” Well, not really, unless it is a fairly serious pain. Even then, most people just take some meds and cover the pain… again, not listening to your body.
