Move your Body from the Inside Out
By Stephanie Wood
Learn the First step in getting started with Moving Your Body from the Inside out from Your

Lifestyles/Movement Coach?Stephanie Wood

Strategy #1:

1. Use your thoughts wisely. Understand their power. Thoughts have a tendency to become their physical equivalent. This is one of the fundamental laws of the universe. Another one is the law of attraction, which states that 'like attracts like.' Because it is consciousness that creates reality, the kind of consciousness you hold, your vibration, actually creates the kind of life you're living.

Formula for you to explore:

Thought to a

feeling to a

behavior to a

result

So how does this relate to moving your body everyday? Well, For example:

If I tell my body? the thought:?I feel fat today!? well, Then that thought becomes a feeling, and I feel heavy?so am I now motivated to move my body???? I don?t think so?and the result is that I go back to my computer and ignore my body and feel even more sluggish;

Vs. this scenario

But let?s reverse it and think of a positive word: (opposite of fat = may be light(for me that is) I feel light..the thought becomes a feeling: I feel better about moving?I want to move my body?and the result is that I put on some music and walk around the house.

***

What thoughts come up around the word exercise for you? Use the same negative to positive formula:

Example? I have to exercise = a negative , non motivating desire Instead(for me)

I enjoy moving my body everyday ( a positive force to motivate myself)

Now moving can take all sorts of forms?no right or wrong way?just move!(well there are correct ways of moving so that you do not injure yourself...but we will get to that soon!)

I encourage you to practice this ?word? game with yourself?and see how you feel inside your body vs. what you think your should be doing; which in turn will propel you to naturally move in ways you really enjoy without having someone tell you what to do.

Your Body is not created or put on from the outside. It is not attained through cosmetic surgeryt,deprivation, or compulsive exercise.

Practice the liberating exercise above and see how your body becomes liberated to move?and your new body will start to emerge as a natural result of a healthy and balanced life.

When you have accomplished looking from the inside out(P.S. this is an ongoing process)?I can then help you create movement programs that can be naturally integrated into your lifestyle. Send me your challenges: I am here to help you move your body in a fun and enjoyable way everyday!
