This week’s Body Connection we continue our focus on this month’s theme of “Faith, Hope, Prayer and Gratitude” via “Practice“. We have all heard the saying, “practice makes perfect.” Now let’s change it around: “perfect makes practice.” What I mean by that is when we understand our divine perfection we free ourselves to do the practice required to sustain that awareness. For the next 30 days commit to a physical practice.
When I move my body I can feel the activation of the spirit of hope. It’s what gives me that energy in class and one that I love to share. Every time we say yes to fitness, everything else becomes a reflection of the practice. Walk, run, dance, weight train, for God’s sake shake it! LOL It doesn’t matter; get moving and watch your life unfold to greatness.
Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, in the mind of God I have no problems or issues. God is bigger than any worries I could have. And so it is. Amen
Have a terrific and blessed weekend!

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: Transformation – Day 25 – “Dedicated to the Practice”
Today’s Body Connection: As you train the body-temple, focus on staying dedicated for the present moment you are in. Commitment is required, but for the moment. On your runs, stay dedicated for one breath and one stride at a time. During your strength training, commit to one single repetition at a time during the set. During yoga, devote yourself to the one pose you are experiencing. So do not worry about any exercise outside of the present. Your power comes from the NOW, not the future or the past. Be mind of where you are and what you are doing.
Today’s Meditative Thought: Transformation requires dedication, but we must commit to only one breath at a time. Be dedicated to the practice just for today, one moment, and even one breath at a time. You can’t run before you crawl, and transformation is an endurance race, not a sprint. Dedication is being present and awake to the moment you are in. Then, before you know it, you have shifted your whole existence.
Today’s Action Plan: Today, be present to the moment you are in. Dedicate to the breath you are taking and have faith that you are in the midst of your transformation.
Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am a living dedication to my transformation. I surrender to God and allow the blessing to be my everyday way of life. Amen
