Daily Question, November 5

What parts of my body do I treasure?

  • Christina

    That I’m slim–it’s an aesthetic thing.

  • Shaina

    I treasure my body as a whole since it connects me to my society and spiritually to the world. For example, my eyes allow me to witness nature and it’s beautiful way of living life. Us as a whole have similar parts of our bodies creates relatable and allows us to create better bonds.

  • Malag

    Great question today to realise how important are all the body parts right down to the invisible. I tend to focus on the bits that are sub-optimal but this morning I wandered through the more obvious body parts appreciating everywhere I went and what it would be like not to have them.

  • Kevin

    All the parts that work!

  • Ose

    All of it

  • Every part of our body is interconnected with the others, so that when a small part, like a hormone, is unbalanced, the whole body suffers.
    So, I treasure all my parts and if one of them is sick or lost (as in the case of my fragile hearing), I try to trust and be grateful for what science, technology, art and human wisdom have developed over the centuries, all over the world.

  • Evie

    I’m most grateful for my intuition because it guides me to do what is right and to live a life that is full of love and thanks.

  • Elizabeth M Jones

    My back. My spine is precious. all my nerves flow through my spine and that is the powerhouse of all of my movement, my interaction with others and my spine keeps me upright. So wonderful!

  • Present Moment

    My heart because I can communicate intention to it and it responds with my highest wisdom

  • Hot Sauce
    The lower, “primitive” brain. It is this part of the brain that facilitates mystical experiences and a deeper sense of the sacred in the world. The part of the brain that we often denigrate as “lower” is really what connects us to deeper realities. It’s the higher cerebral cortex, in fact, that can block this part of the brain by making us get too “stuck in our heads,” but this part of the brain’s ability to reason and be creative is also extremely amazing, even if we overuse it ...

    Edit: I just noticed the irony in this because of how “heady” this post is. LOL

    I treasure my mind. Its a place with lots going on, all trying to serve me well. I also treasure my heart, its ability to forgive is deep.

  • my navel, because it reminds of the gift of being born into this world of beauty and challange.

  • Mica

    I treasure my mind and heart – or is it more accurate to say I treasure my heart and mind?

  • Kat

    I also treasure my body’s ability to heal quickly! And that I am mostly free of aches and pains. That I do not have to think about physical pain very often is a great blessing.

  • Linda

    I treasure my body’s ability to heal quickly.

  • Tom

    All of it, but I am really working at finding and treasuring my heart of hearts. That part of my body that gives life, feels joy, and can also break all at the same time. As long it is needed my heart will be there for me and part of me.

  • Elaine

    Each and every interconnected, interwoven, wondrously creative, efficient, life enhancing part.

  • Angel

    I treasure my entire body. My body has healed itself from several issues and is functioning enough to do my daily tasks. I can see, lift things, hear, and express myself through my body.

  • Victoria

    Although my life and self-care has been so different than my mothers and grandmothers, my body has grown into their body as I age.
    I smile with recognition, with humility and gratitude. I treasure the parts of my body that remind me of my connection to them.

  • pkr

    I treasure ALL parts of my body. ?
