Love = Longevity

Today's Reflection

Our cells are eavesdropping on every thought we have. 

Let that truth sink in for a second. What thoughts have been circulating in your mind today, this past week, this past year? What messages have your cells the tiny building blocks of your body and the foundation for your health holistically been receiving? What have they overheard? How are they being influenced and formed, for better or for worse?

Has it been a loop of worry, anxiety or fear? Has it been a pattern of positivity, joy and hope? Maybe ebbing and flowing between both? No matter what path your thoughts have taken, your cells are taking it all in.

The thoughts we think have been scientifically shown to have a direct connection to our cellular health, impacting our internal environment – triggering dis-ease or restoring homeostasis. 

The health of our body, our skin and our whole self begins in our mind. This is not a woo-woo concept, it’s how we’ve been divinely created. And it’s not doom and gloom, it’s good news.

We hold the power to transform our thoughts, we have the power to transform our health. Infusing our mind with loving thoughts (towards ourselves and towards others) influences how our cells respond – activating regeneration, harmony and healing.

Love is the ultimate healing balm, in mind and body. It reduces inflammation, improves immune function, promotes tissue repair and restores vibrant health and longevity.

This Valentine’s Day, may we remember: our cells are listening, and love = longevity. 

Today’s Ritual

Become more mindful of the thoughts you think. Shift from autopilot to intention. When a negative thought arises, offer yourself grace, release it like a leaf floating down a stream and replace it with a positive one. Every loving thought you have is like a wave of light that touches each cell, inviting it to regenerate. Visualize this healing light on a cellular level as you meditate on the breath prayers below.

Inhale: I receive (love, peace, faith)
Exhale: I release (worry, unforgiveness, fear).
Inhale: I was made from love.
Exhale: I was made for love.

May today’s reflection be a catalyst for a more compassionate, peaceful thought life, unlocking a future filled with healing, longevity and love – within you and around you.
