Your Body Is Your Employee

If your boss told you that you were ugly, if they rolled their eyes at you every time they saw you, if they said to you that you weren't doing a good job, that you aren't where you should be, that you need to work harder, work faster, work better, and they said this to you all day, everyday...How good of an employee do you think you would be? Especially when you know that you are doing everything that you are supposed to be doing to the best of your ability! I personally would do the very best that I could, but it would be harder as each day passed, and as more negative comments were said to me. Eventually my performance would suffer greatly and I wouldn't be able to continue doing my job to the best of my ability.

Your body is the employee of your consciousness. The thoughts that you think about your body, the energy behind the things you say to yourself are important to choose. If you constantly put negative thoughts towards your body, it is no surprise if you don't feel well. Our bodies are incredible, they do so many things that we are often unaware of, our breathing, blinking, heart beating, circulation, digestion and a thousand more things to keep our body in a state of homeostasis (health and balance). When we blame our bodies for our consciousness' short comings ( like weight worries) it becomes harder and harder for our bodies to be the best employees and do the best they can to keep us in harmony and balance.

Instead of saying something negative towards your body, stop, and feel grateful that your body can take in air and use the oxygen for our blood and exhale waste so we can survive, be grateful that everything that you eat is digested, and what is usable is turned into nourishment and energy, and what isn't is expelled as waste all without us thinking about it. So give your body a break and let it do its job, and do the best you can to provide the best working environments possible, eat well, sleep well, drink water, exercise, and remember to listen to what your body wants, if you are feeling really tired, rest. When you are hungry, eat, when you are full, stop. If you are sore from being still most of your day, get out and walk, go to the gym, do yoga, swim. Take care of your employee and your employee will take care of you.
