Unknown:Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm your
Unknown:host Aurora. And I'm very excited for today's episode
Unknown:number 31. Thank you so much for Yes, supporting my podcast
Unknown:listening to my meditations and my inspirational talks on a
Unknown:regular downloading, subscribing, sharing. Live
Unknown:liking all means so much to me and I feel highly motivated to
Unknown:continue and to bring your peace and love and reconnection with
Unknown:yourself. Really. I feel that's the most important thing we can
Unknown:work on. When we live in confinement, COVID isolation, or
Unknown:when we have time for ourselves. yesterday's episode was for men
Unknown:only I talked about, yes, self care for men and mental health.
Unknown:And if you're curious enough, then please go ahead and listen
Unknown:to it. Of course, it's open for everybody. And today's episode
Unknown:is for the ladies out there. Yeah, let's get started. I hope
Unknown:you feel beautiful. I hope you feel good in your skin. I hope
Unknown:you enjoy your body and are at peace with what you have. Or
Unknown:what you might not have, that you focus on the things that you
Unknown:have in your life. Instead of what could be should be. So if
Unknown:we come talking about the body, how's your relationship to food?
Unknown:Do you restrict? Do you punish yourself? Do you feel shame? Or
Unknown:do you have a very natural approach to food intake? I think
Unknown:food intake is one of the most important things in life that
Unknown:can keep us sane and healthy. But as ladies, we have that deep
Unknown:connection with food and beauty and maybe anxiety to lose the
Unknown:beauty of our body at some point. So aging and this podcast
Unknown:here is for you to be at peace with yourself finally and to let
Unknown:go of expectations and to let go of pressure and self hate and
Unknown:self destruction and just enjoying your body. pleasuring
Unknown:yourself, being there for you when you really need it instead
Unknown:of seeking it from outside source As when it comes to
Unknown:mental health, I could ramble around for hours. But when it
Unknown:comes to mental health, I want to focus with you ladies on the
Unknown:self talk. So when you are in a group of people, which Haha,
Unknown:it's probably not possible at the moment with COVID, but will
Unknown:be possible again in the future. But what are your thoughts when
Unknown:you are among girls? Or with guys in a group of people? Do
Unknown:you feel jealous? Do you compare yourself? How do you feel in
Unknown:your skin? Then, when you are with yourself, and when you're
Unknown:trying to get things done? Or when you're trying to take good
Unknown:care of yourself? Where is your mind? Then? Is your self talk
Unknown:very positive and warm and soothing? Or is it very harsh
Unknown:and? And critical? Then we have the soul? The soul? Have you
Unknown:found your purpose yet? Do you know what you are here for on
Unknown:planet Earth? How about having children? Did you think about it
Unknown:recently? Is it a thought that crosses you on a regular? Or do
Unknown:you not waste any time when it comes to being pregnant? And
Unknown:having a child? And a very interesting question someone
Unknown:asked me before was, do you see yourself as a child avoider? Do
Unknown:you avoid any kind of contact with children? Do you see
Unknown:yourself as an aunt? Or do you see yourself as a mother and
Unknown:just know that there's so many roles that you can fulfill on
Unknown:this planet earth that are so needed out there. And it doesn't
Unknown:have to be motherhood? Right? Like, I don't want to see or
Unknown:hear you suffering from society expectations and expectations
Unknown:from your family that you have to have a child or, or any
Unknown:expectation really, but especially when it comes to
Unknown:having children because you are so much more than just a baby
Unknown:bear and machine. And if you are the plain mother, and this is
Unknown:your goal, then please stick to it and blossom and cherish and
Unknown:relish everything about it. This is just for the girls who maybe
Unknown:don't know yet or maybe don't want to have children just know
Unknown:that you are deeply needed in society, even if you don't
Unknown:choose to have children. So let's go back to the physical.
Unknown:How have you been feeling physically lately? I know.
Unknown:January can be a very tough month physically because of
Unknown:Christmas, and we may be over indulged in food. But it's also
Unknown:a few Christmas was not really present this year, because of
Unknown:COVID. It is a very dark month. It is a month of Yeah, coming to
Unknown:an end with last year and new beginnings and uncertainty and
Unknown:even like for light, I really call it the dark month. The
Unknown:light of the sun is still very low and doesn't really give us
Unknown:much energy. So we have to give these things to ourselves. I
Unknown:don't know much about you. And as I said previously, in my last
Unknown:episode, I'm working on a website because I'm burning to
Unknown:know who you are and what you're struggling with to make this
Unknown:podcast more of an experience for yourself. So I don't know
Unknown:where you're at when it comes to the physical body. One thing I
Unknown:want to mention is I had a friend back then, in high school
Unknown:and after she showered she always took the time to put
Unknown:lotion on her skin and I was always the kind of girl who all
Unknown:had to go fast and I wanted to be ready as fast as possible. I
Unknown:used makeup but I don't know I didn't really cherish those
Unknown:moments. So maybe next time you have a shower you can do Take an
Unknown:oil or body lotion, and just massage your wrists and your
Unknown:four arms and maybe your upper arm, and then your thighs and
Unknown:your calves and your feet. And just take a moment and
Unknown:appreciate your healthy body. If you have a healthy body, then
Unknown:know that you're blessed, and that we should be thanking our
Unknown:bodies every day for the service, they provide us. If you
Unknown:say that in English, you know what I mean. If you're
Unknown:struggling with health issues, then maybe you can focus on the
Unknown:body parts that are not aching that are healthy and, and focus
Unknown:on those parts and encourage your body to be healthy again
Unknown:and help him out. Because your body always wants to fight and
Unknown:does everything for you to be in a healthy state. So if you
Unknown:support it, from like the outside with your hands and
Unknown:massaging it, then you can do a lot of good. And another thing
Unknown:is meditation, when you sit in meditation and find that peace,
Unknown:that stillness, then a lot of the times we can reconnect with
Unknown:ourselves and send gratefulness into our heart. And that feeling
Unknown:that we then carry out into the world, that deep feeling of
Unknown:calm, soothing, healing life carries out to other people. And
Unknown:that is what people perceive as beauty. And you being at peace
Unknown:with yourself, will also help you to let go of habits like
Unknown:smoking, like binge eating, emotional eating. Or if you're
Unknown:on the other side of the spectrum, like not eating enough
Unknown:punishing yourself, it can bring you back to your initial like to
Unknown:your core. And this is why those meditations here are so critical
Unknown:for me to post because this is how I learned to be at peace
Unknown:with my body. And I'm 35 years old, and
Unknown:I think I've never been happier in my skin that I am now. I
Unknown:don't weigh myself, I don't. Yeah, I was gonna say I don't
Unknown:judge myself anymore. I think that's the hardest thing to do
Unknown:when you look at yourself in the mirror. But I really came to
Unknown:peace with what I have, and enjoy my body way more than I
Unknown:used to. So meditation just connects you back to yourself
Unknown:and makes you appreciate the healthy body that you possess,
Unknown:and makes you want to take care of it. Like when you can imagine
Unknown:a mother, a young mother or a pregnant woman, how she kind of
Unknown:rubs her belly and feels good in her body and knows that there's
Unknown:something growing inside of her. I think I strongly believe that
Unknown:we as woman we don't need to be pregnant. To send that deep
Unknown:appreciation and happiness into our body cells. We can do it
Unknown:right now in the moment. So as you can hear maybe in my voice I
Unknown:get really emotional and this is so dear to my soul to get this
Unknown:message out there because so many women out there are so
Unknown:beautiful and they can see it themselves. And through this
Unknown:podcast, I want to remember you of who you were and of how
Unknown:beautiful you are and of how much we need you out there to
Unknown:shine your light. All right, this was the first episode for
Unknown:you ladies out there. I hug you so much. And maybe spoil
Unknown:yourself do a little meditation here or have a good warm shower
Unknown:and put some oil onto your skin afterwards. Until next time,
Unknown:this was me Aurora that I
