Today, we love to introduce to you the NEW *2023 Edition* Body Love Journal from @rosebudwoman Are your beliefs about your body helpful? Did you choose them or were they given to you? I invite you into a structured nine-week journaling process, beginning with intention setting, moving into seven themed weeks of inquiry, and closing with integration. Each day includes a journal prompt and a checklist of self-love and self-care suggestions.Become content with the body, enjoying it and treating it right because it’s how you’d treat anything you love. Without body anxiety, mind space is freed up for a hundred other potential activities. One thing is true: bodies are miraculous. Our polymorphic diverse embodiment constitutes the beauty of the human species.Unhelpful beliefs can be unwound.The inquiry questions in the new journal are designed to help evoke and examine the cultural beliefs we’ve inherited about the body. They are questions about sex, shape, size, function, illness, and aging. About who your body belongs to, and who can make decisions about it. About what it can eat or drink or ingest. What medical procedures are allowed and disallowed—even about how your body should be dressed? We ask things like: “Is your body here to please others?” “How is a person's body related to a person’s worth?”Body Love Journaling, and the suggested self-care practices in the checklists, are designed to support a reintegration: a restitching together of the body, mind, and spirit.Thank you for considering this practice for yourself and as a gift to others.Love,ChristineIn this episode, we cover:What to expect in this 2023 editionJournal's outlineSuggested self-care practicesWhere to buyHelpful Links:BUY the NEW *2023 Edition* Body Love JournalBUY the Anoint Body Love Gift Set *Featuring Revised 2023 Body Love Journal* - This set contains our Anoint Nourishing Body Oil, our Perfect Skin Brush, and our newly revised 2023 hardcover Body Love Journal in our Limited Edition Cotton Zipper Pouch.Find Rosebud Woman on Instagram as @rosebudwoman, Christine on Instagram as @the.rose.woman, and on Tiktok as @therosewoman108.Listen, Like, Share & Subscribe on Apple Podcast | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Youtube
