What is your New Year’s Resolution?

What about really living happily in your body?

Are not all New Year’s resolutions somehow related to our body? Giving up this or that food addiction, quit smoking, drinking less or stop drinking alcohol altogether, committing to exercise more or starting to exercise in the first place, more sleep, less stress, getting organized so that we can relax more, living a healthier life style ….
It is all about how we can have a better life, right?

Our body is our home, we cannot run from it, we might fight it, “better” it, we get on improving it all the time, fail to do so, we hate the body for it, we argue with it cause it does not do what we want it to do, instead it is putting on more weight or gets sick. Worst of all: We compare the body all the time; to other bodies, to the way our body looked in the past, how it is feeling worse than before and on and on.
 
 
Love your body-love your life
 

Love your body love your life

Is one of Nia’s main headlines … I must admit – I took me quite a while before I really got this (although I always loved the quote) and it is an ongoing process. Like everything in our lives, right? I got a real good taste in that first “New to Nia” workshop Kathy W gave in Windhoek. Which led to White Belt for me. There were many other moments, were I felt happy in my body and in my life. Sunsets, being with loved ones … You know your moments …. For me it was mostly when I could somehow manage to switch off that nagging voice in my head, that something would be wrong with my body, that it should at least be different, feel different, look different.

To really get to acceptance and love even – it takes a conscious decision. Then it becomes a roadmap, you know where you are heading … Something like: I will honor my body, I will give it what it needs, I will stop sabotaging my body (and with that my life), I will dare to notice my habits and addictions, I will follow what feels good in the long run.
The thing is: We all have that knowing. Otherwise there would be no New Year’s Resolution at all. We know exactly what is good for us and what isn’t … To follow through, that is the challenge.

So why not making 2015 your “body”-year …. honoring the body, being gentle with it…
In Nia, the emphasis is on the body, how it feels, on feedback, on sensation. So you don’t have to change or still your mind to find out how to really love your body.. Your body will tell you. With Nia, we learn to listen.
I love what Kathy had said in Juice!: “The body does not care about weight or showy muscles. It just wants to move.”

Love
Livia
