Gratitude for Muscles

Contentment - Happy

I realized that I enjoy my weekly Legion of Mary meetings and I come home always happy and peaceful. I'm appreciative of my life and family.

Day

I wasn't a huge fan of todays meditation session. I was looking more for something that would connect me with what's going on around me. However it did leave me feeling very thankful, and today was a good day so no complaints here.

Athlete's Meditation

I was happy to get a meditation that reached out to me as an athlete. I spend a decent amount of time working my muscles and expect a lot from them. It was good to sit and take some time to appreciate them.

Physical Meditation

We often meditate to clear the mind and give thanks or bring clarity or stillness. However today's mediation bit y bit emphasizes the unsung hero in our body; our muscles which silently nut effectively keep us going not just throughout our day but our lifetimes. This meditation brought that awareness with a strong sense of gratitude for each muscle and the role it does.

Head, shoulder, knees and toes!

I touched on this yesterday. Despite the pain in my extremities, and let's forgo my lack of fluid mobility...the ability to hug and just enjoy my loved ones isn't lacking one bit. God day everyone. Namaste 🙏🏾

Gratitude for Muscles

Love this meditation. It reminds me to be cognizant of the functions of the body muscles that keep me going everyday . The awareness and by all means the Gratitude for Muscles is appreciative.

Gratitude

I learned to acknowledge, love, embrace and be thankful for the movement of my being. I learned to develop a relationship with my body, the vehicle to accompany me on this journey, this experience we call life. I am thankful. ❤️

Muscle Acknowledgement

I learned that I should appreciate how my muscles work more.

Gratitude

I learned I should appreciate my body more. It helps me everyday

😁

I learned that my body helps me out everyday and that I should appreciate my life and love my body.

Thank you.

It helps to be grateful for something everyday. Never thought to be grateful to my muscles. Thank you. This thought will be useful. 😊

Appreciation

I learned that I should be appreciative of my muscles. They help me move and not strain and that they take a lot of pressure.

Distractions

I did this meditation while on the train and there were many sounds and other distractions around me. I found the gaps of silence in the meditation to be difficult in regards to staying focused but I was happy I could bring my attention back when I realized it was wandering.

Doable

I learned that meditation is something I can do. Before it felt beyond me or something I am incapable of. Seeing that by taking the time to sit and do it, it's doable!

This was the least helpful meditation.

This was not relaxing - narrator just pointed out muscles. Sigh.

Gratitude for Muscles

Listening to the tape does relax your muscles but it takes practice, you cannot expect perfection on your first try.

Reflecting on muscle awareness

Awareness and reflection of the strength that lies within my muscles from the tip of my toes to the top of my head to the ends of my fingers causes me to feel strength to power up for each day.

Reflecting on muscles

I felt my body aging and came closer to a sense of urgency and compassion for my body. I want to feel stronger and I have the ability to make that happen.

Fire at will let loose my crib of flames and foam feed the froth and taste that that is

Appreciation for Our Anatomy

we tend to forget that we were made in God’s image. our bodies are so beautiful and strong but hardly are taken care of when you’re focused on other things. we need to cleanse and show gratitude to our temple and remember that the muscles are working everyday for our pleasure. we’re in perfect design, even as disabled. whatever we lack, we grow stronger and whatever we have, we become thankful. appreciation for our anatomy. 💜

Body Awareness

With focus I can feel relaxation in every muscle and bring awareness to any pain or discomfort.

Mon 11.27.17

It’s easy to forget about what our bodies do for us. It’s easier to focus on the mental and emotional gratitude in our lives. I’m glad that I took a few minutes to be present in my physical self, and be thankful for it.

Muscles

There is so much about myself to pay attention to. If I can focus more on how my own body functions, I would be able to stress less about what goes on outside of my body.

Grounded in Gratitude

Unlike most meditations starting with the head, this sequence began with our feet providing me with a sense of being ‘grounded’ in gratitude throughout the meditation. Wonderful meditation with which to begin my day.

Little things

I realized that we need to appreciate the little things in life. We should show gratitude to our bodies

Gratitude for muscles

I am very thankful for my bodies muscles. They do so many things to allow me to live my life and experience the world around me.

Finally Friday 12-22-17

Our muscles in our bodies are important and sometimes we tend to forget about them; to stretch them, to massage them, etc. it’s important that we focus on the muscles just as we focus on breathing. We cannot forget the outer layer. Thank you, Aura! Have a nice day, Everyone!😀🐬

Made To Be Strong

I realized that your muscles are working all the time. From the simple tasks like smiling to the more difficult tasks like exercising. You are made to be a strong and powerful person. Build and grow your muscles to be the best you. Be strong and love yourself!🌿 #createyourself

Only second day of meditation

But I'm learning to be present in the moment. Just make the most of my day and stay present.

Awareness of the muscles...

Allowing each of our muscles to relax was an awesome experience... I will be doing this One again thanks guys...

Grateful for muscles is a first

There are so many muscles providing support for our day that I have taken for granted up until this meditation thank you Aura and this community which brings us awareness to our incredible body vehicle full of muscle support.

Exercise

I learned that I need to appreciate my body and learn to love it more. I need to strengthen my core and my legs first

Feeling whole

I like meditations that break things down into smaller pieces, it makes even the big things feel attainable. Even improving yourself as a whole. I also like the fact that this meditation gives the time to appreciate each individual piece of your body the attention it deserves.

Power

I learned that power starts in the mind and works through the muscles.

Thankfulness Is A Different Vibe

Muscles respond and feel differently when the intent is thankfulness as opposed to assessment. This meditation also led me in the direction of people that I’m thankful for.

My muscles

I learnt that I love every muscle in my body and I will try my best every day to be aware of how hard they work and to help them to move in alignment ❤️❤️❤️

To be grateful for our bodies and what they do.

To be grateful for our bodies and what they do. To do grateful that I have mobility and can do things.

Muscles

This meditation helped me focus in and relax. I need to focus more on myself.

Grateful for my muscles

This was a gentle reminder of what my body is capable of and that not all people are blessed to even be able to walk. I am truly grateful for what I have. ☀️

Gratitude for muscles

I can thank my body for supporting me, for being flexible and for working hard for me. Very grateful!

Listening to my body

I’ve started going back to yoga and have been working on doing it in the mornings at home. A mind body and soul practice that I absolutely love. I’m learning to listen to my body and focus on areas that need more lovin!

Muscles

To remember to take time to give every part of my body gratitude and appreciation!

What We Do For Muscles

I learned that we should not appreciate muscles, but muscles should appreciate us. We make them stronger. If those muscles in our thighs were weak, we’d make them strong. They’re not strong just to be nice, we made them strong. They should thank me.

thankful 🙏🏼

My muscles do so much for my body and it’s good to take time to sit back and be thankful for the simple things in your life. Without my muscles I wouldn’t be able to go and chase after my dreams

Grateful

The less emotional baggage one carries, the happy and healthier one feels.

Muscles

I never think about my muscles but I realize now, I would be nowhere without them...

Gratitude for my semi dad bod

I just turned 40 this week. My mind is stronger and my body has become weaker. This was an awesome exercise today. I’ve been making small changes in my diet and sleep. Exercise is the missing piece. Im grateful for being healthy. I am truly blessed, I feel it with all my heart. Time to take care of myself so I can take care of anyone in need. Thank you muscles 💪I owe ya one!

happiness

today I had a wonderful day :) friends and love surrounded me and my soul was filled! I came home later in the evening, and decided to take the time to listen to an Aura. I am so happy I did :) it made me feel happy, thankful, and appreciative of everything I have been given in life 🤩 💛

Gratitude

I felt the love just pouring out of me as we moved throughout the body and recognizing what they do for us everyday

Sore but happy.

I have been getting back into weight lifting and yoga and rarely take time to really focus on my muscles to help relax and recover. A new and welcome experience.

Don’t miss it

When my thoughts slipped on to some random unrelated thoughts I missed the gratitude for my arms. That was an important lesson for me.

Gratitud necesaria

Ya me hacia falta relajarme, esto especialmente porque en el día estuve bastante acelerado. Necesitaba volver a la calma mental para poder reflexionar mis últimos impulsos. Mismos que me definirán los siguientes meses.

Gift

Our bodies are a gift sent to us for us to learn. And to reach greater heights. The very core of that is our muscles.

BS

Im training for a 10 mile run and a triathlon and last week was a bit off. I didnt have the discipline or time i have had in previous weeks and it was a bit frustrating. My back was also bothering me so maybe the rest was needed so i dont injure myself. Picturing and appreciating these muscles seems like a very good reset to start this week. I know it will also be a busy one but staying grounded in meditations like these helps to keep me in balance.

Thanking...

This is a quick body scan to show appreciation for the various muscle groups and what they do. I have done this & a few other things for years to keep the awesome body I developed as a youth. I often confess that I am blessed with an awesome body with quick healing powers. I have a clear image of the body I want ( this is the CRITICAL part) and mine is my 220# buff body from my 20s! And I have been fortunate to learn how to keep it for decades now. Because my body wants to create the image in my mind, I find it natural to drink plenty of water and eat lotsa fruits & veggies and just a little meat (although I do a lot of peanut butter). I do not believe it is just about the food we eat but our “Attitude” about the food we eat. I find it easy to eat a little junk food once in a while with no problem. But I truly enjoy fruits, veggies, seeds & nuts and spices. Get a good image of yourself, eat right, exercise - basically move all your muscles and joints everyday (going to the gym is not necessary) and have gratitude for life and say to yourself often - “I am returning to perfect health!” And you will.

gratitude for muscles

i noticed all of the muscles that are in my body that i usually don’t think about on my daily basis.

More Gratitude

On a daily basis we take for granted the hard work we put our bodies through. I felt tension and strain release from my body by showing each muscle each section of my body gratitude! I am grateful for the work and support my muscles provide 💪🏾

Morning

This meditation made me slow down my morning and realise that we should be grateful for more things and smile and talk more to make ourselves more happy.

Gratitude for muscles

Great meditation expressing gratitude to all the muscles in our body. We take them for granted but, when injured we realize how important they are.

Gratitude for Muscles

Until listening to this meditation I had never stopped to consider all that my muscles do for me as I go through my day. I will try to be more mindful and appreciative.

Listening to body sensations

Feels so good to pay attention to our body, all the sensations and the muscles I use every day. It made me realise that I have the chance to be healthy, and that I have to be grateful for it.

okay

I was feeling a bit down so I couldn't fully feel that graditude but it's a good meditation in general, I'm sure I would have enjoyed it if I did it some other day.

I felt awesome after hearing this with my eyes closed. Awesome relaxation/appreciation audio.

I learned that I need to give myself, enough appreciation for what I am.

More Relaxed

I felt sleepy and stressed before doing this meditation. Now that I did this, I feel so more awake and more conscious of my surroundings. I recommend this meditation for anyone who needs it anytime. I liked the part when the speaker said we can replay the meditation at any time while having pleasant bird sounds.

Grateful

I really never thought about how amazing our bodies are and how much they do without us even having to think about it! Thank you to my body! 🍁

My Body

My body keeps care of me as long as I take take care of it too. I gotta learn to feel my muscles and treat them right

Gratitude for the Muscles

At ease

I learned to be mindful of my muscles and appreciate all of the hard work they endure.

Calmed

I was anxious prior to this meditation. Now, I feel calmed down and peaceful. Ahh, what a delight.

I appreciate muscles

Since I’ve started working out, I’ve noticed my muscles, how they’re changing and what they feel like. This mediation reminded me to appreciate muscles and how they change.

Everyday my body works hard. Whether it’s running and working out or holding a baby in my arms. My muscles allow me to cherish these moment and I am so grateful for my body’s motions. I feel thankful and relaxed:)

That one was fun! Thanks muscles for all that you do, including making me smile.

Gratitude For My Body

I’m extremely grateful for my muscles and body without them I wouldn’t be able to workout everyday and to work towards a better, healthier me. Being healthy is really important to me not only physically but mentally as well
