Honor your body the temple especially now that we are celebrating the New Year 2012. After the usual excesses of the Holy Season it is time to get back to our routine.
Our daily practices help us to bring more balance in our body and in our lives. Moderation in all things is key here.
There are many ways to honor your body the temple. Yoga, pilates, walking, exercising, swimming, hiking, massage, Reiki healing, breathing, eating and drinking healthfully are some of the ways to bring balance to your body.
We are spirit in physical form and our bodies are divinely created. When you honor your body the temple you are honoring not only yourself, but the Divine as well. We are perfectly human and perfectly divine.
Temple of Spirit
Temple of spirit is what the body truly is. Our bodies are the vehicle of the source that dwells within us. When we acknowledge our body as sacred we then naturally treat it with more respect and care.
The temple of spirit means that as sacred beings we need to take good care for our bodies each day so that they run well like the magnificent machinery that they are.
Eating healthful live foods, drinking plenty of water and exercise are some ways to honor your body. Being tuned in to what our body needs for more balance is important such as massage, Reiki Healing or chiropractic care.
We respect the temple of spirit by nurturing our bodies on the inside as well as the outside. Positive self talk, meditation, affirmations and seeing our own inner beauty supports the balance between the inner and outer sacredness of our being.
Self Love
Self love is an essential ingredient in order to honor your body. Stand naked, look in the mirror and say "I love you" to yourself several times slowly. Look deeply into your eyes seeing the beauty of your body and the beauty of your spirit.
Really let yourself experience self love from deep within your heart. You are a divine being with a unique body like no other. This self love exercise is simple yet has a profound effect when you practice it daily.
Let your feelings rise up without judgement, for love brings up everything unlike itself. The intention of this exercise is focused on healing your judgement about your body image thus embracing yourself through self love.
Once you get to see the negative thoughts, limiting beliefs and judgements that you have about your body, then you can begin to let them go. Healing is the natural by-product of this process of self love.
We are bombarded in the media by images of beautiful women and handsome men. When we compare ourselves to these unrealistic standards of beauty that are imposed upon us we lose touch with ourselves.
All comparisons of self to others set us up for failure. Stop the comparison and look in the mirror and see yourself with the loving and accepting eyes of self love.
Feel the peace inside you when you come home to yourself once again with love and complete acceptance. You are Divine!!

For more than 28 years I have been helping many people from all walks of life and across the world, including India, China and England. Some clients prefer to come see me in person for an Intuitive Reading. However, the majority of my clients call me for phone sessions.
Intuition is unlimited as God is unlimited so it doesn't matter whether you are in the same room with me or in Hong Kong! My intention is the same - to serve as a channel of clarity and healing to assist you in all areas of your life. Doing this work makes me truly happy and I blessed to be able to help people and do what I love.
When you set up an Intuitive Reading in Seattle or a phone session with me, it's best to write down your questions ahead of time. This helps focus your intention on what it you want guidance for in your life.
At the beginning of your Intuitive Reading, I go deep into a meditative state and ask Spirit to allow me to be a clear and pure channel of love, healing and guidance for you. The answer to each question flows through me in words and pictures and the information received is spiritual in nature, yet practical for every day life.
I encourage all of you to:
Live your true potentialr
