It's so easy to tell the people we love that they are wonderful, gorgeous and that we love them! However, when it comes to doing this for ourselves, we can forget that we need to hear those words of appreciation too! Enjoy this short body love tip to boost your confidence and lift your spirits! Remember that your body loves to hear the good stuff!
This short video teaches one of my favourite mindful movements for helping you to move into peace and release stress. It's based on my energy medicine movement programme called Chakranetics and is a lovely way to reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. Whenever you move with conscious, mindful awareness and attention we bring ourselves back to our body and out of the anxious mind. Do this whenever you need it or simply make it a part of your morning self care routine
Enjoy this fun, upbeat body confidence Affirmation.
When you add movement to words and create a positive intention, affirmations come alive. So too does feeling fabulous! Change your energy and you change your life! This one is called "I am enough!"
This is such a beautiful way to begin the day!! I always spend a little time in the morning writing my journals. One of my favourite journaling exercises is to write a Body Gratitude Journal. I teach about this at the IBCC (Institute for Body Confidence Coaching). It's a powerful way to connect and build a loving, kind and compassionate relationship with our bodies. Pets seem to be drawn towards it too as you will see in the video!!!
How do you know what your thoughts are up to? The answer is that we FEEL the way that we think. Most of the time we are replaying the past in the present moment. This means we keep generating the same old emotions and the same old thoughts. We have the same old conversations and we experience the same old reactions. Our body is the truth teller - the key is to learn to speak the body's language. Astrid explains how to use your body's intelligence to track your thoughts to experience greater joy, health and vitality in your life!
Enjoy this short and sweet meditation to help you re-balance and focus on the beauty that is all around you. Loving your body means taking time to centre yourself and find those delicious moments in life where we can reconnect with our hope, passion, gratitude and appreciation.

I was so inspired this morning by the fabulous dance of the trees in the garden. As I watched them I was reminded to not hold back - to allow my energy to flow and dance. To follow the call of the wind, to sway and rock with ideas and creativity...to dance to my own tune and romance my body every single day with this glorious experience called life! Have the most wonderful day...dance to your own beautiful tune so we can all create a symphony!
