Our bodies work tirelessly, without demanding or asking for validation or questioning:” Why should I work 24/7?” or “What is it in for me?” or “How much will I get paid for it”. Is being a body a thankless profession?
Nature is full of love, grace and benevolence. That’s its nature. And since everything on this planet is reciprocal, are we in sync? The current pandemic has brought our attention back to this truth and inevitably to our bodies.
Let us take this very moment to be in tune with our body and talk to the lungs. Sit in a comfortable and silent place. Watch your breath, be aware of the stillness. Connect with your lungs and talk to them. Feel gratitude and joy. Say this as many times during the day as you wish to.
Dear Lungs
Thank you for bringing in life
Thank you for your love
Thank you for purifying me
Thank you for your joy
I am grateful to you for keeping my body healthy and happy
