Have you Loved Your Guts today?
Love Your Guts? Why love your guts?
Your guts work hard for you. They are on duty 24/7. The cycle of digestion - ingestion, assimilation and elimination - really do keep your gut working around the clock.
They are responsible for taking in your nutrition, assimilating your nutrients, synthesize important vitamins, hauling out the garbage, and much more. They work non-stop to keep you as healthy as your lifestyle and habits will allow them to.
Isn't this a good reason to send them some love?
How do you love your guts? Here's a start. When do you feel most loved? When someone notices you? Witnesses you? Pays attention to you in an admiring way?
Let's begin there. Focus your attention on your abdomen. Not just the abdominal muscles, but feel what's underneath.
Get into a comfortable seated position, place your hands over your belly - like in the photo above. Now just begin to breathe into your abdomen. Allow your breath to expand your belly, moving your hands apart on the inhale, and bringing them back together on the exhale.
With each inhale, draw in love through your breath all the way into your abdomen - surrounding and infusing your guts with love. With each exhale, allow your belly, your organs and all of your connective tissues to relax, release tension and absorb the love energy that is surrounding them. Repeat for 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes - as long as you'd like.
If your guts start talking to you, just be patient and listen with love just as you would for a child, and just as you would want for yourself.
Happy Valentine's Day to you and your guts.
Have a Joyful Day! Debra Graugnard
P.S. Make every day Valentine's Day for the guts you love!

Look for the new website to be live this coming week. What does this mean for you? Lots of good stuff coming your way.
Starting with my new ebook - Unlocking Hidden Messages Behind Stress & Digestion - to help you understand the impact of stress on your digestion, and to help you understand how your body sends you messages through the ways in which it responds to your stress.
A guided meditation exercise comes with it to help you discover where you are holding stress in your body, and begin to bring healing energies to places of tension and discomfort.
The launch of the new site is just in time for National Colo-Rectal Cancer Awareness Month (March). I'll be offering special programs during the month of March to help you tune in to your body's systems that influence your eating patterns and digestion, to develop a listening relationship and understand what your guts need to feel loved!
By the way, Love is healing.
