Quotes About Body

Woman has ovaries and a uterus; such are the particular conditions that lock her in her subjectivity; some even say she thinks with her hormones.

There is a transcendent energy whose source is from heaven that flows into us as soon as we desire it. It is the true energy; it executes actions through the mediation of our souls and our bodies.

There is a kind of orthodoxy in which the several loci of systematic theology, or stages of redemptive history, are all in place, but that lacks the life of the whole, just as arms, legs, torso, head, feet, eyes, ears, nose, and mouth may all be present—while the body as a whole lacks energy and perhaps life itself.

Vibes are energetic waves of subtle energy that arise from several places, some from inside your body and some from the world around you. All this makes up your vibes. Intuitive messages come from your heart and gut. Others come through the back of your head, on your arms, the back of your neck, even in your throat. These waves of energy reverberate throughout your entire physical being, sending you messages.

Listening to your body's vibes for guidance and feedback may seem odd at first, but keep in mind that your body is a direct conduit to your Higher Self, and it won't mislead you. Every signal it sends has direct meaning and essential information for your physical well-being, spiritual balance, and safety.

Trusting your vibes is an awakening process in which your spirit partners with your body, your ego steps aside and learns, and together they move you directly and swiftly out of harm's way and straight into your very best life.

In other words, the more you allow your spirit to lead your body to success, the more trust will evolve on its own.

All I had to do was get quiet, tune in to my body, and listen.

One of my major rules of life is: You should listen to your body. Your body is wise. Your body knows.
