My name is Lori Marie Shaw-Taguinod and I approve this message.....
♥️
I spent too much time letting a number on a scale dictate my self-worth and how I felt about myself. Don't let a scale continue to steal joy from you. There is too much life to be lived and joy to be had... In the BODY you've got. (which is perfectly fine by the way 🤗)
♥️

Practicing self-care is not just pedicures and facials.
✨
Just know that all of your forms of self-care are valid.
❤️

Strength looks different on every body.

I'm choosing the latter.

Grand rising! Y'all. We made it to another Sunday! Today is my day to check in with my Green Gals, tidy up and prepare for the week ahead.
🌿
What are some of your Sunday rituals?🌻

This is a . Here's the thing... We age, hair turns grey, breasts move south. The tummy is there, the giggle is there, the stretch marks ARE THERE.... They don't change the fact that our bodies are amazing creations capable of amazing things!
❤
Find some joy, love, and self-acceptance in that!

Do. It. Now.

It took falling down the stairs and sustaining injuries that had me in a wheelchair... while on vacation to get me to appreciate all that my body CAN do.
❤
As women, I think we get caught up in comparison and the ideas of what society thinks is sexy, beautiful, strong, and acceptable. FYI... You're sexy, beautiful, strong and acceptable RIGHT. WHERE. YOU'RE. AT.
❤
Having the ability to walk and do things for myself taken away from me really woke me up. My ankles will NEVER be the same.. They look like tree stumps but you know what. They are strong enough to hold me up so that I can walk.
❤
I have made a promise to myself that I will care for and love my body no matter what. It's the only one I've got so I'm going to enjoy it!

Take a moment to just move, breathe, pray, and release whatever is weighing you down.

May you feel love, may you be happy, may you be at peace and at ease.

You read a lot about “love your body” on social media but the thing is…. No one’s telling you HOW. That s**t is hard ESPECIALLY when (if your body is not socially acceptable) media and advertising are pretty much designed to make you hate yourself. Here’s a good jumping-off point for you if you’re struggling with loving the bod you got. Let’s face it, you can lose and gain weight, lose it again, get abs (or not) only to get stuck in a head game that keeps you from being truly happy. That jumping off point is acceptance.
It takes time and a lot of inner work to get to a place of acceptance. Acceptance of your body right where it’s at with its looks and ability. With that acceptance comes a release of shame. Shame about its size, the appearance of thighs, belly, arms, etc. Shame about being too much or not good enough. It is not until you accept can you release shame. Once you release shame, then you can move to a place of LOVE for your body. You begin to care for and nurture yourself in a whole new way. Inside and out. .
It’s a journey. If you’re struggling I’m here to help and I’m sending so much love to you right now.

Day 4 ✨Affirmation: "The essence of life is love. I share love. I welcome love. I am love. I am essence."

Asana: Reverse Plank - Essence

Move with some amazing yogis as we create affirmations that will empower and keep you focused on your healing journey.

Somebody somewhere needs to hear this today. ..... You ARE good enough. .

Day 3✨ I flow with possibility. I create with intention. I share with love.

Cow Face Pose📝Creativity

Today and every day. I hope you feel love today.

Some days taking care of myself looks like a salad. Some days taking care of myself looks like stress eating a cupcake.
Today it was a salad.
Don't forget to take care of yourself today!

Self-acceptance is the key ingredient to becoming the best version of YOU.
💫
You can exercise, read self-improvement books, listen to podcasts, dress better, put makeup on, eat better, meditate, go to retreats, or attend workshops all day long but you'll repeat the same cycles.
💫
Trust... I speak on this from experience 😬
💫
The journey is never ending but it gets easier with daily acts of self acceptance and self love. Next thing you know, you're a pro, getting to new levels of becoming the greatest, most highest version of you.
💫
What are your daily acts of self love and self acceptance? Share in the comments! ♥

I am deeply fulfilled by all that I do. My talents are perfectly suited to benefit the world, and I am filled with love, prosperity, and joy.

Just a little something to think about as we head into the new year. ⁣
✨⁣
It's time to get free of all of the emotional stuff that's weighing us down when it comes to our bodies. The goal should be to feel lighter in your spirit. ⁣
✨⁣
If you want to release physical weight on your body, that's perfectly fine. Work to release that emotional heaviness and your body will release the physical weight. It's all connected. ⁣
✨⁣
Most importantly, LOVE yourself through the whole process ❤⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
