Hey, guys. It's Bex here. Welcome to another video in my series "You Have Four Minutes

for Meditation." Today we're doing a meditation for the perfect body.

Adverbs of degree

You've heard me right. The perfect body is just four minutes away. You can meditate your

way to having the body that you've always desired.

I want you to start by getting in a comfortable seat, so you can be in a chair, in a bed,

or on the floor like me. If you happen to be sitting on the floor, go ahead and put

one foot in front of the other, or in half lotus or full lotus position -- whatever works

for you. Next, you can place your hands downturned

on your thighs or knees, or upturned to receive the awesome energy around you. I want you

sitting up nice and tall, so you can inhale your shoulders up to your ears...and exhale

your shoulder blades down your back. This will have your shoulders stacked right

over your hips, your head pointed up towards the ceiling, and your chin parallel to the

floor. Now we're ready to begin. Go ahead and close

your eyes. This will remove all distractions from your sightline. Continue to follow your

breath, paying attention to every inhale and exhale. Short or long, shallow or deep, it's

all okay. Just pay attention to what your body's doing in this very moment.

Meditation not only helps with stress and worry. It can also help with weight loss and

physical progress. But first, before we get into all the weight loss stuff and all the

changing, I want to offer a mantra for you to repeat in your head or out loud, and then

also throughout the day. "Having the body I want starts with loving the body I have..."

"Having the body I want starts with loving the body I have..."

Imagine for a moment that you have a partner who you love deeply. You trust their word.

You trust their opinion of you. And every day, they tell you, "You're not good enough.

You'll never get there. You'll never have what you want. You'll never be what you desire."

That's what we do to ourselves, to our bodies. It's a way that we talk to our bodies, and

that's what prevents out bodies from reacting kindly to us. We tell our bodies they're not

good enough. They'll never take us where we want to go. They'll never look the way we

want them to look. How can we expect to be met with kindness when we treat our bodies

so unkindly? "Having the body I want starts with loving

the body I have. My legs are strong. They take me where I want to go. They allow me

to walk, and maybe even run." "My arms are strong. They help me to lift

things all day long. I can make them stronger if I practice and keep moving."

"I honor myself with healthy food that is good for my body."

"Having the body I want starts with loving the body I have."

Continue to inhale and exhale deeply, allowing sounds and thoughts in, and then back out

again, staying focused on your mantra: "Having the body I want starts with loving the body

I have." Go ahead and take one more big inhale and

exhale with me Release the breath fully, allowing all the

negativity, all those previous bad thoughts we thought about ourselves out, pushing it

out into the universe to disappear. Inhale. Open your eyes.

And that's it. We already have the perfect bodies. We already

have everything we need to achieve everything that we want. Maybe it doesn't look exactly

the way we want it to right now in this moment, but that's no reason not to love what we already

have. We are perfect on our way to even greater perfection, if that makes sense.
