Body Comfort

[sophy.livejournal.com]

Some of you might remember the letter to my body that I wrote and posted in here a month or so ago.

I'm still working on that stuff, and have started a morning ritual of looking at or touching or talking to or writing about one of my body parts each day. Yesterday, I stared at my vagina in the full lengthed mirror and today I looked at my breasts and kinda held them up and looked all around them.

It's amazing how much of a positive affect this has had on me. I think that making friends with my body is going to really help me get over some of my trauma issues and allow my wonderfully patient boyfriend to touch me more frequently.

I just wanted to share that with this sex-and-body-positive space. :)

I don't know you and haven't read your letter to your body.

But that's an amazing thing to do...I'm glad you like your body. Maybe I'll try copying you. I punch myself a lot. Your idea sounds much better. Very glad to hear you're thinking positively about yourself and loving yourself.

lotsa love

That's wonderful. It's also good to know that you have such a great guy who's willing to be so patient. :)
