Have you ever wondered what your body might have to say to you if it could talk? Probably not. Yet it does. It sends messages over and over. Patiently. All those aches and pains, twitches and itches are your body talking to you begging for some attention and tender, loving care.
Last week I finally stopped to listen to mine. I went to the doctor. She ordered a heap of tests. This week I went back to get the results. I’m glad I did. And I’m grateful to her for being as thorough as she was. All my tests were fine. I just need a few little tweeks here and there. I’ve promised my body that from now on I will stop, pay attention, and look after myself better.
Have a listen to this. It’s only short. But it gets to the point.
Thank you Tamara, from The Purple Almond, for bringing this to my attention.

Loving yourself is the greatest revolution – anon
Thanks for this, Raili… the video does make you stop and think – and realise. A timely message for me.

Wow! It makes me think, but will it pull me away from the cheesecake in the fridge?
My head and my body are arguing.
“We need to keep a balance between our physical and mental well-being,” says head.
“Yes, but sugar is an addiction,” says body.
“But my life is hard. I have enough to cope with already.”
“It’d become much easier if you listened to me, You’d be happier AND more well if you bit the bullet and went into recovery.”
“That’s easy for you to say…”
“But can’t you see , I AM you.”
“Shut up. SHUT UP.”
Great post. Grrrr 😉
Love this, Jane! I can just hear it …
A compromise ?
“Perhaps just a ‘little’ nibble of cheesecake …”
Too late – I’ve eaten the lot… I couldn’t let it go stale 😉
I absolutely understand. It would be such a waste and there is far too much food wastage as it is 🙂
As long as you know I didn’t eat it for my own selfish pleasure 🙂
I do, I do! I know how generous and pro-active you are when it comes to the wellbeing of others 🙂
Yes! I remember now! I was thinking of others – I’d have felt awful if three weeks down the line some burglar had come in, felt peckish and ended up with food poisoning 🙂
Right! You’re being exceedingly community conscious
So very true, and i honestly do care for my body, but when you have a fright, you never want another one, our body is everything. Xx
Nothing like a good scare to make us sit up and listen ! Glad you’re OK now Brooke 🙂
So true, but great now, and……….I now have check ups!! (Did’nt know what they were until…..)
That’s good Brooke. Pro-active and early intervention if necessary 🙂
Glad you liked the video. Thank you for the mention!
It resonated – and was a good ‘fit’ with what’s been happening for me 🙂
I’m glad it helped you. 🤗
Yep. I’m worth over a billion dollars. Just paid out a large sum of money to prove it!
lol !!!
So pleased everything is good 😊 I knew something was missing from wordpress , your posts! Somehow I deleted you 😬
Happens – those naughty gremlins !
😊
I’m curious to find out what blog system you have been working with? I’m experiencing some small security problems with my latest site and I would like to find something more risk-free. Do you have any solutions?
I have a free WordPress site. i’ve not experienced any security issues. Hope you find a fix
Right now it sounds like Expression Engine is the preferred blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
I have never heard of it. I use free WordPress 🙂
