5Rhythms Sweat Your Prayers® on Weds Nights hosted by Karen
October 2 @ 5:00 pm - 6:45 pm
$15 – $25TRUST IN THE BODY!
It is important to Trust in the Body! It is important to listen, feel, and see what the Body is telling you. Your Body is a sacred vessel that needs tending to and if you don’t tend to your Body and listen to what it is telling you then some serious complicated and uncomfortable situations may arise!
“Listen to your Body’s wisdom, which expresses itself through signals of comfort and discomfort. When choosing a certain behavior, ask your body. How do you feel about this? If your body sends a signal of physical or emotional distress, watch out! If your Body sends a signal of comfort and eagerness, proceed!”
Deepak Chopra
