Like an ancient temple of broken walls and décor yet holding a very sacred energy, our body is our temple that houses and holds our soul.  Leaving the body as a trauma response is a built-in self defense mechanism that helps us get though the trauma.  Without realizing we begin to abuse our body, neglecting it in all kinds of ways believing that the body has abandoned us.  The truth is we abandon our body as a trauma response.  To connect back to the body with your gentle touch and breath is to honor and love our body back to wholeness and healing.  Our cells listen to our inner feelings or vibrations of the body and respond accordingly.  Body forgives and begin to heal as we return back to it with love.  There is a need for us to let go of the programming and beliefs about the size, the shape and color of our body and free our self-worth that is tied to how our body looks.  Being comfortable in our own skin is about loving every fold, every mark and every inch of our body.
