As parents, we often worry about our choices that concern our children, what form of discipline to use, how to tell them about sex, how much independence to give. It’s a never-ending challenge to balance the good with the bad. Though all of these things and much more are important, I find myself thinking about something completely different…
The journey to find peace with your body is a road worth traveling. For me, it’s been a rather twisty one with hills and valleys. I want true health; it gives me pain. I desire to be fit; it gives me pain. I long for the energy I once had; it gives me fatigue. This has been the norm for what seems like two life times. I’ve only recently come to a new place of reconciliation with these bones and sinew. I’d like to share it with you.
Recently, I have noticed as I give more attention to the needs of my internal systems, some of the aches and pains I thought to be “normal” aging have disappeared; you bet, I’m grateful. Oh, Happy Day!
