The Epiphany That Freed Me from My Body Obsession

“Your body is precious. It is your vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care.” ~Buddha
What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear or see the word fitness? Do you think of an Olympic power lifting athlete, gymnast, or swimmer? The way we interpret and respond to the word fitness is a driver of physical health, but also our mental health.

Did you ever look at someone and think, “Wow, this person’s going to do great things someday.”
The person stood out amongst his or her peers. She got straight A’s on her report and was praised by all her teachers. He was charismatic and held major leaderships at school. The individual had the entire package.
Now fast forward to the present day. You haven’t seen or heard anything spectacular about the person. In fact, there’s just radio silence.
Maybe you know someone like this. Or, maybe you are that person.
I used to think that intelligence and a strong work ethic were the only necessary ingredients for success. But that’s not the case. While both are important, the two alone aren’t a guarantee for success. A number…
